Many people have asked me how I designed the lonelytree artwork ? Well it is a compilation of many brushes which I found on deviantart.com an excellent source for designers to share and display their work.

It’s been a while since I have been actively developing sites for pligg or involved in the pligg forum. Recently I received a request to make a pligg template for the new pligg version 1 release candidate by a friend of mine. I had received an email sometime back about the new pligg release, but never tried it out till few days ago.
The pligg release candidate is a step up from the previous version but as many other scripts it needs more work to iron out the bugs. It has been a slow and steady improvement in features and modules, and some really good modules are available for purchase from the pligg pro shop for the new version but you really need a stable version before you might want to spend money on those modules. I just hope the developers of pligg bring out a stable version 1 soon, as it’s been a couple of months since they released the candidate versions.
