I Challenge You to Represent 8BIT, WordPress, and Standard 3 this Week!

Wow, what an incredible weekend! We’ve had a huge influx of activity and have been spending the weekend greeting new customers who are now getting their sweet publishing-on with Standard 3!

We’re so excited to have them on-board as well as seeing all the re-upped installations of some of our “hardcore” fans (yes, I believe we have a few groupies among us – they may even comment below outing themselves)!

There’s little time to rest and relax but I just want to remind you to not kill your entire week customization your new hot-off-the-press Standard WordPress Theme!

… but if you do I won’t say anything…! Although, it is the 4th of July week so you do have at least one day to mess around with it!

And if you do have a vacation planned we’d love to see you rep us! Do something creative and write a blog post showcasing your love for WordPress firstly and then Standard second!

Let’s see those 4th of July week pics of 8BIT, Standard, and WordPress! Share the love! It’s what you do as publishers anyways, right?

As you can see I had my daughters help me make the 8BIT Mountain as well as get some classy sunblock action sporting 8BIT!

Sigh, it couldn’t have lasted forever though…

  1. If I leave the first comment, does that mean I’m a groupie :)

  2. This is awesome! I’m going to experiment w/ fireworks to see what I can come up with. Safety first. :)

  3. Spent my weekend customizing. But it was worth it. It’s such an amazing upgrade on 2.0! I’m ok with it if I’m considered a groupie! Lol.

  4. i am NOT A FANBOI! i’m a dedicated and passionate user of exceptional software. I mean i don’t even have a t-shirt, a hat or anything else. And no that was not me hiding in the bushes the other night, following too close in my car this morning, or hiding behind the water cooler just 5 min ago.. Oh man gotta go dewde is about to brush his hair where’s my ziplock bag?

    Hey guys what version of WordPress is best for Standard 3? Also sent you a email to sales@8bit.io

    Thanks, Aaron

    • WordPress 3.4.1 is ideal for it but it supports 3.3. We’ll be killing support for it in one of the upcoming releases, though so don’t stay behind too long :) .

  6. I suppose I could be considered a groupie. One of the first to test out the original Standard Theme. Been loving the preview releases of v3! Excited to get into the support forum and download it! ;)

  7. Got my supplies – gasoline, matches, stuffed animals, Milk Duds, old laptop, Taco Bell, roller blades, keys to my neighbor’s car, and a night full of loud explosions….your welcome 8Bit ;) This is going to be spectacular.

  8. Being that I’ve been coding it for the last 6 months… My work is finally done! Updated the blog yesterday, and what drew me here was the fact that I’m in the middle of writing a blog post about the redesign of my site. In said blog post I’ll be showing major love to the 8BIT crew!

    One day I hope to work myself up to being a Standard Theme groupie… some day. ;)
