Lisa Sabin-Wilson will present "Dissecting Magazine Themes", an implementation of WordPress which uses queries and custom fields to create magazine and newspaper-like themes. Learn how to generate leading articles, featured stories and small article lead-ins, display category icons, article images and videos using WordPress with absolutely no plug-ins or scripts. Sample Magazine Themes will be provided for discussion and Q&A.

Mike Rohde and Jason McDowell will lead a brief group discussion, critiquing a website design to determine what works and what doesn't from design and usability perspectives.

There will be a follow-up summary of MilwaukeeDevHouse2 and discussion and planning for BarCampMilwaukee3 planned for Fall 2008.

Models Needed! Teecycle is a site run by a local named Tim Cigelske that aims to recycle used shirts by selling them. Neat idea! Tim is looking for some models, and has asked Web414 to join the cause. If anyone wants to help Tim out and be a model, stick around after the meeting. Oh, and if you have shirts to donate to the cause, bring them too.)
