About Me and My Blog
Welcome to my blog Dimox.net!
My name is Dmitriy and my nickname is Dimox. I am a web developer from Russia, blogger since 2006, I have a blog with an average popularity (1700 readers).
I earn money online providing web development services:
- markup web sites from PSD to (X)HTML & CSS;
- create templates (themes) for WordPress.
Also I make money with some other ways, like advertising banners, selling links, affiliate programs.
CSS, XHTML, jQuery
My first web site I was made in 2003. From that time I was carried away by web development, so I doing this including today.
Previously I have used only tables for markup. Since I became a freelancer in 2006 I began to use <div>s instead of <table>s.
In 2008 I became acquainted with jQuery. I very like this framework, therefore actively use it on my sites and write various useful scripts. I am one of the authors of online web 2.0 tool CSS Layout Generator. His interface works on jQuery.
I constantly strive to improve my skills.
WordPress
Since 2006 I actively make themes for WordPress. During this time I have created a series of plugins, including the popular plugin “Article Directory” (familiar programmer, who wanted to stay anonymous, helped me to create this plugin, because I’m not quite a PHP guy) and special theme to it with the same name.
My English
Despite the fact that I studied English entire 9 years (5 – in school and 4 – in colledge), my knowledge level of English is still poor, so I have to work with the dictionary. Improving my knowledge of English is one of the goals of this blog.
I use Google Translator widget for Opera while writing and translating texts. I’ve made it myself.
This Blog
As you might guess, this blog is dedicated to web development and main themes are CSS, XHTML, jQuery and WordPress. Also I may write on another related topics such as web standards, web browsers, SEO etc.
Dimox, I don’t want to upset you, but there are lots of mistakes almost in every sentence. The first thing that cut my eyes, when I entered the blog was “The Russia”. That’s a bad mistake.
P.S. Great idea – to start an English blog to learn English, to comunicate with native speakers and to earn more money! :)
I wish you luck!
I agree with him))) i learn this theme in school now)) If you say “Russia”, you should not write “The”, but if you say “Russian Federation”, “The” sould write necessary.
P.S. sorry for my english:)
Hi Dimox: in partial response to the comment above. Yours is the third wordpress theme I’ve tested out. By far, it’s been superior to the other 2, cleaner, easier to use and less glitches. I’d rather have that than perfect English ANY day…:)
I am using your Orange Flower template. I like your header graphic way better than my own. Please, is the photo available for purchase anywhere? I might use it on my business card.
Also, can you tell me what is the symbol you use in the background? What does it mean?
And finally, how can I make a donation to you for the design work you did on this wonderful theme?
Thanks, Dimox

Hi, Barbara. Thank you for your feedback, I’m very pleased.
An original photo I found here, it’s free.
I don’t know, it’s just a pattern that I found somewhere on the Internet.
May be later I will say, how you can make a donation, but for now this is not available.
Hi, Dimox!
There’s a mistake in the text above. You’ve written “When writing and translation text I use a widget “Google Translator” for the Opera browser, created by myself.” and a better variant sounds like this: “I use Google Translator for Opera while writing and translating texts for my blog. I’ve made it myself“.
Maybe this isn’t the best one, but.. :)

Hi Dimox, excellent job, well done! Can you send me your rates by email? for psd>html and psd>wp conversions?
Great stuff so far. I Look forward to seeing more from your blog. Thanks.
Privet Dimox, i was just wanted to thank you for your google translator gadget in opera, it saved me so many times, i use it to speak with my Russian friends all day C: and the only two things i would like to be improved, 1º its if you could add the “automatic” translation that Google offers now, and 2º if i can change the hotkey combinations, I would like to change the ctrl+enter for something else. ( its difficult to press in spanish keyboards the right ctrl+enter… C: ) that is it, Thanks once again for the gadget C: Saludos from Argentina, mata né!
Hi, i will look what I can do with that.
