Theme Thursday

Two days a week? What we will think of next? 😉

I came across this cool brown theme Solipsus and just couldn't wait for you guys to try it out. This theme comes courtesy of the talented Tiffany Nguyen (Rikkye) and I've updated it to support widgets as well. (Though the sidebar can look funny with some types of widgets.)

Update: Chalk it up to 2 AM silliness, but last night I forgot to "activate" the theme for you guys after deploying it. You shoudl be able to find it under your Presentation tab now. Sorry!

    This theme must be available only in certain data centers? I’ll bet it’s hitchhiking from San Diego to Dallas right now. 😉

    Check out the original theme author’s site to get a non-WordPress.com view of the theme.

    Cool! I love Tiffany’s website, so it’s cool to see her getting recognition.
    I think I might have suggested her themes, but I can remember because it was so long ago. 😛

    Hmm, but for the header text (the back black mixes with the text colour, both are black :?) it rocks =)

    Another WP-theme thats nothing for me. The silly header image and rounded vs. straight corners kills it.
    Apart from that, like most themes, its main column is too narrow, i.e., doesn’t allow pics of at least 450 pix width being displayed without being scaled down = messing up diagonal lines.

    I have to give this the biggest double thumbs down possible. Have you ever thought about accessibility? Other than White as Milk? Light mint on white, yeah, have fun people with having problems seein non-contrasting colors. Why not just put it green on green?

    Hey there, fantastic work as usual.

    I’d love it if you were able implement Tarski as it is a great looking skin and I think would also be great if users could choose an image/url of their own for the topbar. Just a thought!

    Otherwise, keep on truckin!

    Theme is great looking, but I agree with Blaze above… It would be nice if users could choose an image/url of their own for the topbar… sort of like blending the vision of the blogger with that of the theme artist… Like the Regulus theme for example! That one rocks!!!

    Is there a reason that these new themes link to the wordpress tags instead of the inner blog tags when clicked on? Example: When you click on “personal” under my heading, it takes you to all “personal” tags for all wp users.

    What gives?

    I found it. And it’s neat. But you’re right, some widgets do look weird in it. For example, the FeedBurner animated GIF Feed looks awkward, buttons don’t display well, and a bunch of other problems. But I guess the xml literates could work the problems out. For the rest of us, however, it’s difficult to apply the theme and benefit from it.
