1. I create from scratch.
2. Yeah, I sell some and I collaborate for free release on some.
3. I do it custom, based on what I have on my mind.
4. If they do it for clients, then it is alright but selling it as a premium theme, that sucks whistling.gif
5. I believe you have to contact him personally, or use the power of Twitter and submit it to warez site thumbup.gif

How do i change my current code to random post?

Current Code
CODE

<?php if (!$paged) : if ( ($featured2_cat = arras_get_option('featured_cat2') ) !== '' && $featured2_cat != '-1' ) : ?>
   <?php
   if ($featured2_cat == '-5')     $query2 = array('post__in' => get_option('sticky_posts'), 'showposts' => arras_get_option('featured2_count') );
   elseif ($featured2_cat == '0')     $query2 = 'showposts=' . arras_get_option('featured2_count');
   else                            $query2 = 'showposts=' . arras_get_option('featured2_count') . '&cat=' . $featured2_cat;
   
   $q2 = new WP_Query( apply_filters('arras_featured2_query', $query2) );
   arras_get_posts('featured2', $q2);
   ?>
<?php endif; endif; ?>

<?php arras_above_index_news_post() ?>

<?php
$rand_posts = get_posts('numberposts=5&orderby=rand');
foreach( $rand_posts as $post ) :
?>
   <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>

Of course you can do self hosted wordpress.

All you need is some time and money,

1. Find hosting that offers shared hosting services. Buy it.
2. Upload your own wordpress scripts
3. Manage it like how you did on Blogger

Buy a new host. Point your domain to the new host and add it in the Cpanel.

Then install the latest Wordpress. (Usually they'll provide you with either Fantastico or Site Software so you
don't need to waste your time downloading/uploading/editing Wordpress files)

Then once you are in Wordpress, go to the "Import" page, key in your WordPress.com details and all your posts
and comments would be imported to your new Wordpress.

You are now free to install new themes and plugins. Enjoy!

I am also in consideration of migrating to wordpress.
I need to think carefully whether I should really migrate or is it necessary smile.gif

If you would looking at which hosting, you might read what Wordpress recommended list.
http://wordpress.org/hosting/

As for me, I already has Webhostingpad.com that came in Fantastico built-in. smile.gif

yes everything will be the same. The difference is that everything is managed by you. If something happens, no one can help you, but you yourself and the forum. In fact, you get to have more customization which is more of a pro than a con.

It depends on how well you do your transfer, if you know the correct steps, then it is possible to do it with 0 downtime.

1. Domain takes a maximum of 48 hours to update it's nameserver.
2. Did you purchase the domain name via wordpress? Usually, if you bought it yourself and there are no contract, then you are definitely free to transfer to another registrar.

Hi

For wordpress go to your dashboard> the tools> Export feature and you can download the XML file, it is rather straightforward and for importing it is also the same , choose import from wordpress and upload the XML file you downloaded and it will now contain all the posts and comments.
