Ubuntu Countdown to Intrepid modified for WordPress users
There has been an update to the Ubuntu Countdown to Intrepid. This has been modified for use with WordPress blog sites. WordPress and other blogs block javascripts, which the original Countdown used. However, the method provided by Peng has no javascript. Two links are provided, as well as the graphics themselves. Save the graphics to your hard drive, upload them to your blog site, and change the "src=" to match your permanent link. http://nancib.wordpress.com/2008/10/05/ubuntu-countdown-to-intrepid-modified-for-wordpress-users/
