Wordpress 2.7 is here and it's looking extremely good with round corners and nice graphics.

They've made the interface faster and you can drag and drop the things you use the most at the top for easy access

You can also select between 4 different sizes when you insert images into posts (in previous versions you had 3 options) and it's extremely easy to navigate. I didn't like the change they did with the menu in version 2.6, but this change is fantastic. Now you have all your options in the left hand menu and you can expand menu options to select a sub menu instead of first clicking on the menu and after that the sub menu option.

Under the tools menu there's an option where you can upgrade your wordpress installation. I guess they've made this to make it easier to upgrade and reinstall wordpress (I can't complain about upgrading WP manually since that's quite easy too). I'm actually looking forward to next version so I can test the automatic upgrade function   I think this is the first time I want to upgrade to the latest version .

If you haven't upgrade you should do so because I think you will enjoy the latest version you too.
