The new Phlashers WP theme titled Phlashers United v0.3 is finally here. After several revision changes (mostly due to IE6’s amazing grasp of CSS), this theme is finally ready to replace the ugly one we used to have.

If you want to help make this theme better, kindly report any bugs or browser issues you might come across. I’ll be posting revision changes below and credits for all bug reports.
