Congratulations on the new addition mate. Life is gonna be extra busy with the new version of XF coming up.

"Vacation": We'll be having a future Pixel Exit staff member born shortly! I have a baby girl that is expected at the end of June, but we've been told it could be anytime from here until then. When she's born, I'll be taking some time off completely so support will be limited. I'll follow up on this post when that happens.

Congratulations both. My motto; family before everything. So enjoy...
Congrats!

Congratulations on the new addition mate. Life is gonna be extra busy with the new version of XF coming up.

XF2.2 release day, won't worry:

My goal with these larger versions of XF being released is to get the styles updated for the initial beta version so people can try it out if they'd like. Usually, support on a release like that would be limited because when we get to that point, XF typically release a new version each week which gets a bit hectic. We'll play it by ear though and I'll get the updates out as fast as I can. Things are almost back to normal minus the no sleep thing. No biggie there.

Congratulations Russ!

 

[Russ]

Thank you, everyone!

Knock on wood but she has been a great baby so far. She likes to stay up late with me and work on style updates so that's nice.

How you fixed time wise for custom work at the moment @Russ ?

Something I'm tentatively considering

I'm a couple of weeks out from starting bigger projects. I can always squeeze in smaller work if it's a smaller job. Just shoot me a request here https://pixelexit.com/get-started

Congrats on 'lil Miss Russ.

New styles: I've been working away on some new styles that are almost ready for release. When I return from vacation, the goal is to get those up and available as soon as possible.

Any approx. ETA for these?
Have started testing and planning for my xF 1.5 to 2.2 upgrade, and most likely highlighting this upgrade with a new style from PE. Before I purchase a theme to access its 2.2 beta version, I wouldn't want to disappoint myself when/if a new theme comes out that I like better

They're close, 2.2 threw a bit of a wrench in the plans but I'm almost to a point where I can show some demos. The focus is really getting the framework solid for 2.2 to improve things for everyone, existing and new styles.

Can't wait to see the complete update (and what it will contain) for your styles in 2.2 =)

Great times ahead congrats on the new addition Russ!

Any update on these? I saw mention of 2.2 b1 style releases, so wondering about the new styles too?

 

[Russ]

The main focus is to get the solid 2.2 release out and then work on the new releases. I'll try to show a demo here soon enough.
