Optional Necessity

I have styled most aspects of serendipity templates. Single and multi-entry pages, static pages, sidebars, headers, footers and even archives. However, in the back of my mind, and in various partially coded versions, has been the idea of a different format for entry comments than what I have typically used. I have played around with odd vs. even comments, different styles for author comments and several different methods of showing comment meta information, but none of my experimentation fully accomplished my objectives. Serendipity itself also presents a rare functionality - threaded display of comments and the ability to reply to a specific comment, or delete a specific comment if logged in as an administrator.

It seems there is no end to creativity when it comes to rss icons. In my recent entry New RSS icons for your template, I included a few links to other sites hosting nice collections of rss feed icons. These are great alternatives to the standard feed icon, whether your site is powered by Serendipity, or some other cms engine.

For those who are not content with just decorating their home, tree, and everything else that stands still long enough for tinsel, garland ornaments and lights, now you can add a seasonal flair to your website templates as well. Below are a few links I found containing creative Christmas rss feed icons. Enjoy and Happy Holidays!
