Smashing New Look!
In line with the looming Grand Opening Ceremony of Swinburne Sarawak’s sprawling new extended campus, it’s community blog, SwinTalk, has also unveiled a whole new look!
Not only do Swinburnites get to enjoy the new campus, now, even our online presence has a unique theme to boot! How’s that for aspiring for us to be the best online campus community out there?
The new SwinTalk theme proudly parades itself in the two major colours of the Swinburne Sarawak logo – black and yellow, which are also the colours used in our campus’ interior decorations ahead of the Grand Opening.
The theme aims to be vibrant and fun, an image Swinburne tries to paint itself in all the time.
Your help is needed!
No code is perfect. Granted, a Wordpress theme might not be the most complex stuff to code out there, but mistakes and errors do occur. I am after all, human. =)
That said, I’ll need you, the community, to help in identifying any bugs, errors or weird stuff you see. If you happen to come across something not working or something that might seem not right to you, please do not hestitate to tell me about it throught the comments!
I also regret to inform that the theme has not been tested on IE6. So those of you using IE6 out there might be experiencing broken layouts. I highly recommend the lot of you to upgrade to IE7 or other browser alternatives. Rest assured, the theme has been tested to run fine on the latest of all major browsers.
Suggestions!
The layout you’re looking at right now has been rather carefully thought out by those collaborating behind the theme. We’ve taken into consideration the placings of items, features of every nook and canny to make SwinTalk an enjoyable experience. But we are almost always bound to miss out a thing or two along way.
Because this is a community blog, it is my job to tune the theme to the needs of you, the community. As such, I’ll most certainly welcome any comments and suggestions on how the layout or design of the theme can be improved!
So keep the suggestions coming in! =)

Hope you like the new look as much as I enjoyed designing it!
