In honor of Charlie Parker, a bebop innovator the new version 3.8 of WordPress is now available for downloading or updating your current WordPress dashboard. One of the main new features about the new update is the great looking new modern design. No more overbearing gradients or multiple shades of grey, but instead bigger, bolder, and colorful design.
