[theme-reviewers] Make blog post

[Jose Castaneda]

I'm not a huge fan of the P2 but it is extremely useful. One of the reasons
I can't wait until O2 becomes available.

The main reason I feel we all have to at least post once is because we are
part of a community. Be honest and answer: how many of you knew that Otto
was heading the theme preview overhaul? I never would have known that Otto
and several others wanted the theme previews to have a redesign. I know I
brought it up sometime ago but only a few responded.

Chip, curious, since @tskk and were both nominated with the highest count
for team reps will that mean that he and I will be able to post on the
themes/blog as well or just updates?
/aside

If possible I would love to see some tutorials be posted on the make
themes. Or a link to some new techniques. I know there is the codex but the
codex isn't always updated either. In a way the blog does serve as hub on
not only how to make themes but how to submit to the repo. As a theme
reviewer I'm always wanting to learn new ways of using menus, widgets,
shortcodes, and CSS tricks. One of the main reasons I wanted to become a
reviewer.

But those are just my two cents. :)
