With the changes to DeepWave.Net, a new theme was required (of course 
and so, Serene was born. A simple, clean and neat theme with widget support and easily customisable code. Includes a choice of 3 banner images, support for Hide Dashboard plugin, WP Ajax Edit Comments plugin and comments/trackbacks in Pages. Tested with Firefox 2, IE6 and IE7, minimum 800×600 resolution.
Bonus: Includes the Manic Depressive Web Server!
For a screenshot, just take a look around DeepWave.Net, this is the Serene theme. Banner images are below:

DeepWave.Net started out as a personal web page way back in 1993. It was hosted on my university’s Sun and NeXT servers. During those days, NCSA’s Mosaic was the sole premier web browser. It was plain as web pages go, but later, there was an experiment called WIF - WebInterFace. WIF was designed to build an application entirely based on a web page and using Javascript to provide the necessary user interaction. Unfortunately, WIF had some serious bugs in it with Javascript on Netscape 2.x and Macintosh Netscape.
In 1997, the entire site was re-released as the Andromeda Express and was well supported in Netscape 4.x. In July 1998, the Andromeda express was re-released as version 2.1 at its new home at DeepWave.Net.
Eventually, with a Perl-based site management tool called the Web Pre-Processor, DeepWave.Net was re-released yet again as version 3.0 in December 1999, with some significant changes in the design of its user interface.
At the end of 2006, a long overdue makeover for DeepWave.Net was finally implemented. This involved a complete switch to using an excellent Blogging/CMS tool called WordPress.
Welcome to Version 4.1 of DeepWave.Net!
One must always give credit where credit is due, and so, after maintaining raw HTML pages with text editors, and later with Perl, DeepWave.Net now uses a whole bunch of software and tools created by other people. So, here’s the list of major items used at DeepWave.Net:
WordPress
This is the core CMS / Blogging system I use. It is easy to setup and maintain
and it looks pretty good too.
Serene Theme
I use my own Serene Theme for the site.
Cleaner Gallery and Lightbox 2
Of course we want our pictures to look great right?
Email Obfuscator

Feeds Widget
Easy to use RSS Feeds Widget.
NRS Folding Pages Widget
Shouldn’t this be included by default?
Google Analyticator and Google XML Sitemaps Generator
I am Google-d, Therefore I am…
Hide Dashboard
A small plugin I wrote to simply Hide the Dashboard from the Admin Menu
for anyone logging in who is not an Admin.
Search Everything
Why this is not the default in WordPress, I have no idea.
Simple Tags
Great add-on, for a great feature.
Underscore Permalinks
Because underscores are cooler than dashes?
UrlEncoded Permalinks
Just in case…
WP Spam-Free
More Anti-Spam, one can never have enough of this stuff.
WP AJAX Edit Comments
For the really nice comment F/X
WP Contact Form III
Short, sweet, to-the-point contact form - what we all need
And of course, the default Akismet plugin that comes with WordPress.
