Themes: cleanly different Capri 1.0

This theme provides, in my opinion, a very strong base for successful modest customisation (or pimpin‘).

Some themes are just too distinct, and can be spotted a mile off, like Misty or Kubrik, even when they get a new colour scheme and header image. This theme would give a very different feel with such changes, and […]

theme: fresco by milienzo.com

This theme works for me on a couple of levels. Firstly it’s a nicely flexible, colourful, uncluttered theme.

Secondly, I like the way the theme got released, from the designers blog:
I have had lots of positive feedback and one or two people have emailed me asking if they could use my WordPress theme.
The style and branding […]

theme: Sakura floral wordpress theme by area381

This theme reminds me of a duvet cover I once saw in John Lewis.

I can also see it being used for a guys personal blog. It’s kind of the equivalent of those stupid pink floral shirts we wear occassionally to prove that we’re comfortable with our feminine side (or is that just me?).
The developers […]

Themes: comedy iphone wordpress theme

Personally I’m totally underwhelmed by the Apple iPhone. Yeah, it looks pretty. Yeah, it’s really shiny. Yeah, it marks you as a grade A geek. All of which is great. But that thing is HUGE.
Anyway - this theme gives you all of the cool styling goodness of the iPhone on your WordPress blog. What could […]

Interview: Scot at meridiancrest.com

I’ve been impressed with meridiancrest.com on both a content front and a style front as Scot has covered everything from his technorati mission to break into 5 figures to an interview with the guy behind wootagent.
The focus of our […]

Themes: Digital pop

A new theme from Andrew at Desperate Curiosity, Digital Pop floats my boat as a magazine style presentation platform. Very customisable, with ideal spots to highlight your bigger articles.

Continuing the trend towards themes with plugin bundles:
 ”It comes complete with editable header graphics and is Google Adsense ready. It supports the following plugins:

Themes: skittlish

Another wordpress theme without photography or overt ‘designiness’ which may be appropriate for a business blog wishing to display a lighter edge without going all out cool. I like the clean lines, strong colours, and simple typography of this theme.
Interestingly the author has bundled a number of plugins to ensure they styling of these fits […]

Themes: far from fearless

I love the style of this theme by Chris at Far From Fearless, it has a nice balance between a blog and a more traditional static structure website.

This is an interesting example of what I would term an ‘experienced user only’ theme, in that it comes with a number of healthwarnings:
“as much as I would […]

New themes: Superfly

Sometimes the name of a theme gives you absolutely no option but to review it. Introducing superfly by Milo. I love the header, I can see a cool zombie book review site running with this theme. I don’t know why it says zombies to me. Maybe I’ve been 360ing too much this week!
Preview it here.
