@pgibbs Are you available for hire at the moment? I know of a decent sounding job that you would be ideal for.

New version of WP Paintbrush is out. Theme now has auto-update functionality built in …. http://wppaintbrush.com/?p=1167

@milo317 I'm thinking a download counter might be a nice addition too.

@milo317 I ended up turning my email into a blog post and plugin page … https://geek.hellyer.kiwi/2011/10/05/auto-update-plugin-created/

@yoast http://demo.geek.hellyer.kiwi/static/joast.png

@milo317 I'll send an email through in about an hour with an explanation of how it works etc. If it's up to scratch, I'll blog it too.

@milo317 It doesn't work with Dropbox, you need to host them on the server itself. Support for that could easily be added though.

@justinrouch Thanks for your latest WPCandy post. That was exactly what I was looking for 🙂 … http://wpcandy.com/reports/the-tgm-plugin-activation-class-on-github

@milo317 I just did a live test of the theme updater and it worked sweet as 🙂 I've built a plugin for WP which handles the server side too.

@milo317 yep, if you want a copy of the code just lemme know

@WraithKenny Thanks 🙂

@WraithKenny Thanks for your help 🙂

@WraithKenny WP seems to be caching it weird and not updating the cache when I hit "Check again". Odd. But it seems to work fine.

@WraithKenny Ah. I fixed that not long actually. But it still wasn't updating.

@WraithKenny Thanks. But who and in which thread?

@milo317 I don't think there's a shortage of designers, so I assume it's just WP specific work which is jumping in price.

@milo317 @andrea_r There's a lot of moron WordPress developers out there who will be dragging that average down quite a bit I imagine.

@milo317 That was an average that @andrea_r gave. I'm assuming some of us, including yourself, would be able to charge quite a bit more.

@anthonycole @andrea_r What's the going hourly rate for someone like us these days?

@andrea_r Just my luck. I stop doing contract work when every man and his dog needs stuff done!!!

@andrea_r I use to be picky about who I recommended for work. My standards have had to drop over the past two months.

@andrea_r and a complete lack of people to do work it seems! That seems to have been a trend all year long from what I've seen.

@NinjaLikesCheez @exlegalalien Yeah, looks like Android has some tricky issues to deal with.

@andrea_r Thanks Andrea 🙂 They're good to work with so hopefully they get some decent applicants.

@Rarst Looks like it's free for open source projects anyway, so it would presumably be free for me anyway 🙂

@Rarst Thanks. That looks more like an IDE though which I'm not a fan of. I prefer simple text editors.

@davecoveney BRILLIANT!!!! I've been wanting an editor like that for months! Komodo does a lot that I miss from Notepad++ on Windows 🙂
