Host
Adii Piennaar of WooThemes was this week’s host.
How the Adii got started in WordPress
When Adii did the first theme that became WooThemes, the theme option panel was the first theme that had a theme option panel. He didn’t have the technical chops to develop it myself. He paid someone to do it.
