New Theme: Unsleepable
Another day, another theme, right? 
Today I bring to you Unsleepable. It’s a very simple 2-column theme that’s pretty popular in the .org realm. So if gray, white and pretty hover colors strike your fancy – give this theme a try!
Enjoy!
Update: I’ve made it a bit more like the original by adding back the bottom block and widgetizing it (try not to add more than 3 widgets at the bottom), and a few other tweaks now. Almost feels like I should re-present it. Thanks for your patience!

Great theme, thanks Bryan!
The time of the post (atleast what I see):
Saturday, October 7th, 2006 at 9:30 pm
9:30 pm? I thought WP was on the west coast?
October 7th, 2006 at 9:41 pm
Off to investigate, I shall.
Thank you.
October 7th, 2006 at 9:47 pm
I am not sure if the K2 archive page ad the asides feature works, Brian. Any idea?
October 7th, 2006 at 9:49 pm
Bryan,
There seems to be a problem with the unsleepable theme and the dashboard bar which shows up when a user is logged in. See post and screenshots here:

Yep, yep, I’m using it.
It’s cool – bit girlie… (I refer to the color of the links…
And the date … the month appears in lower case..?
Hmmm.
However, I like these two points – they allow me to know that despite your realms of genuis and generosity, you remain human

October 7th, 2006 at 10:34 pm
i thought this theme was designed for insomniacs like me
October 7th, 2006 at 10:39 pm
It’s a very nice theme and the pink looks cool! But overall I think I will stick with the old cutline!

there’s no bottom bar.
October 7th, 2006 at 10:52 pm
one of the best themes, too bad im moving to wordpress on my host, not free one anymore.
October 7th, 2006 at 10:53 pm
Pretty.
October 7th, 2006 at 10:55 pm
Looks fantastic
October 7th, 2006 at 11:10 pm
Aw man! doesn’t look right if I use it. It looks great though. Nice addition.
October 7th, 2006 at 11:25 pm
I just did.. but I think that there are some issues with the theme configuration that need to be resolved.
October 7th, 2006 at 11:27 pm
It would be a really nice feature to let us preview a theme before activating it.
October 7th, 2006 at 11:28 pm
Nice pick! And thanks for adding the Kubrick custom header link.
October 7th, 2006 at 11:50 pm
Hm, not working here at the moment for me…
October 7th, 2006 at 11:54 pm
Ok, now it works – had to change over to another theme, than I was able to switch to Unsleepable.
October 8th, 2006 at 12:04 am
Hmm. I had a look, but could not find it. Maybe I’m just imagining this…
October 8th, 2006 at 12:12 am
love that theme!
October 8th, 2006 at 12:21 am
Can’t wait to see it
October 8th, 2006 at 12:26 am
Um… It’s not available under the presentation tab (yet).
October 8th, 2006 at 12:34 am
Hmmmm…not in the presentation list yet
Looking forward to seeing it though 
October 8th, 2006 at 12:39 am
Oh my, my eyes must be tricking me. I cannot see it.
October 8th, 2006 at 12:41 am
Wow, lots of updates guys!
October 8th, 2006 at 12:41 am
i don’t see it
October 8th, 2006 at 1:14 am
Interesting. I can’t use it at this time. I mean it’s literally not an option.
October 8th, 2006 at 1:22 am
Very nice. Its like theme month !! Best luck to wordpress.
October 8th, 2006 at 1:32 am
I’ll check it out! Thank you.
October 8th, 2006 at 1:42 am
WOW! I didn’t use this yet, but god! unsleepable sounds like a really sexy name for a theme., better than “burik” or these other mediocre names.
I’m so happy with the theme I alreayd have.. because MY BLOG IS THE BEST ON EARTH.
Appart from that, my banner is ever oh-so best! anyway, if it’s good I’ll try it!

Greets Dennis
October 8th, 2006 at 1:46 am
OH.. AND ANOTHER THING..
the theme actually isnt even up uet
i just tried.. but can’t find!
October 8th, 2006 at 1:48 am
Not yet available from my dashboard presentation choices.
October 8th, 2006 at 1:51 am
That’s great but it doesn’t seem to be showing up on the list…
October 8th, 2006 at 1:55 am
I don’t see it.
October 8th, 2006 at 1:57 am
Can’t wait to use it but can’t find it listed with the other themes. Am I the only one that can’t find it??
October 8th, 2006 at 2:01 am
where is it?
October 8th, 2006 at 2:02 am
Uh I cannot see it at my Presentation Page.
October 8th, 2006 at 2:06 am
It’s a nice theme, but I saw a banner type WordPress banner and that doesn’t look pretty [:(]
October 8th, 2006 at 2:17 am
And here I am thinking that I didn’t get any feedback from you lovely folks.
The theme should be back up, I think I caused some type of problem that required it to be turned off for a bit (that’s why you don’t give designers programming licenses).
October 8th, 2006 at 2:23 am
Bryan
That theme is pretty sweet, any chances of making color schemes available. I am more blue over pink type of guy…
October 8th, 2006 at 2:26 am
This is probably my favorite theme EVER, but it seems to add a few Widgets I didn’t ask for…
I have the Latest Posts and Links widgets set up in my sidebar, but they’re repeated on the bottom. I’m guessing this is a bug in the theme.
Thanks guys.
October 8th, 2006 at 2:37 am
Hello, I just tried this on my other blog..it looks nice and simple. I might be mistaken here, but I dont see the sidebar!
Am I missing something? I think the theme also looks very different in IE and Firefox?
October 8th, 2006 at 3:02 am
Yep, it’s now back up.
@kashmir the wp banner may be a dashboard artifact. Try viewing your site while you are not logged in.
October 8th, 2006 at 3:22 am
In my blog recent posts and blogroll are appearing in the sidebar twice.. Any ideas how that could be fixed ?
October 8th, 2006 at 3:29 am
just found out that when I use widgets the original sidebar isn’t removed
October 8th, 2006 at 3:34 am
I love this theme!!!!
But why do the “recent posts” and “blogroll” appear twice at my sidebar? ._. Is it a bug or my problem? THX!!!
October 8th, 2006 at 3:44 am
Sorry about that guys. Looks like that part of the sidebar code slipped under my grasp. It should be fixed now.
October 8th, 2006 at 3:57 am
Bryan, is there a way to let the page links at the top expand a bit more? I have a page titled “What the heck is a web feed”, but in this theme the page link only shows up as “what the”. Look at my blog to see what I mean.
October 8th, 2006 at 4:09 am
just to follow up on my previous question about long page titles in the top link, in Firefox my page title “what the heck is a web feed” is only displayed as “what the”. However, in IE6 the complete page title is displayed in the link but severely messes up the height of the header. I’m still using the Unsleepable theme so you can check it out there.
October 8th, 2006 at 5:00 am
“Unsleepable???” Yawn.
October 8th, 2006 at 5:02 am
I like the Theme name, unsleepable.
October 8th, 2006 at 5:17 am
And oh btw, on the “home” page, look at the bottom widget under “recent post”, there’s the “about” title that appears to be empty?
October 8th, 2006 at 6:16 am
I realized now that there’s also a bottom widgets available, so now I found out what’s “about” all about. Impressive minimalist theme. So far, I like it better than those previous themes.
October 8th, 2006 at 6:20 am
There seems to be a problem with the header links in IE6. The links end up on a second row below the blog title as opposed to the right side of the blog title. Screenshot:
jasonintx also seems to be referring to a similar issue… except the links on my blog are not as long.
October 8th, 2006 at 7:05 am
nice! i used it right away. thanks!
October 8th, 2006 at 7:09 am
I’ve setup my WP Theme test blog as Unsleepable for the next few days. Enjoy.
October 8th, 2006 at 7:31 am
Great Job Agian
October 8th, 2006 at 8:32 am
Not something I’d personally choose, but its always nice when you guys add a new theme.
October 8th, 2006 at 3:06 pm
Great deal of attention has been paid to typography.
Very nice. Thanks. Already switched over.
October 8th, 2006 at 3:40 pm
WOW ! A realy neat theme ! I want to use it. If only it showed the post author…
October 8th, 2006 at 3:59 pm
Nice looking theme. One of the better ones that I have seen in awhile.
October 8th, 2006 at 4:16 pm
Bene, ci voleva finalmente ho il mio template!
October 8th, 2006 at 5:01 pm
Thanks Bryan!! That Is A Grate Theme!!! Got My Friend To Sign up, and she is useing that layout! I would use it! But i dont like te links being pink…not my styl….but i still love it!
October 8th, 2006 at 5:01 pm
I might make a permanent switch from Cutline if the Unsleepable theme displayed the category hierarchy correctly but I’m still playing around with the theme to see which one I like better. Thanks.
October 8th, 2006 at 5:36 pm
I concur with the complaint about the tabs appearing below the headline. Help!
October 8th, 2006 at 9:12 pm
THIS theme thing is very cool..
BUT I STILL THINK I HAVE THE SEXIEST BLOG ON THE PLANET!!!
E.L.M
ok.. whatever.. but I think we need some more..
artistic themes, bright, good banners, and less sterile looking..
more colors.. photo imput etc!
LIKE MY BLOG FOR EXAMPLE..
http://tekoda.wordpress.com
you guys.. it would be good to have some new themes that are like really themed, example…
total theme, itstead of just a boring.. banner with page id’s at top..
but god!
WORDPRESS IS THE BEST SITE IN THE WORLD!
I LOVE IT TO DEATH!
October 8th, 2006 at 10:48 pm
I really really love this theme, but I have a problem with it: on every page but the first one, the entries go outside of the ‘white area’, and into the grey shaded area. I think this looks really untidy, and ruins it to be honest
Is this a glitch in the theme? Or is it meant to be like this?
Any chance it will be fixed?
Many thanks,
Jen
October 9th, 2006 at 12:29 am
my problem is that when i switch to category previev the pictures are hiden and only titles are visible. i woluld like pics to be visible too.
is that possible? couse its annoying problem for me.
October 9th, 2006 at 1:08 am
Love the colours, not too fond of the bottom and side bars. It’s like “AHHH where do I put the widgets!”
October 9th, 2006 at 1:17 am
This theme is so nice that MANY people (more than anyone would expect) are applying it to their blogs.
Please add link color choices for more varieties.
For example; add blue, orange, and green as choices along with the current pink.
Thanks WP!
October 9th, 2006 at 2:09 am
great theme! thank you
October 9th, 2006 at 3:37 am
Love it
One issue so far that hasn’t been fixed yet is how the widgets on the bottom can extend past the layout:
As seen here:
http://hools.wordpress.com/2006/10/08/new-wordpress-layout-trial/
October 9th, 2006 at 4:43 am
I’m having a hard time trying to view profile avatars?
October 9th, 2006 at 5:29 am
Slick..but yeah not my style. It’s always nice for more though!
October 9th, 2006 at 6:21 am
We seem to be having some issuse with this theme. Sidebar and the header are messed up in IE. Please look at http://scribez.wordpress.com
October 9th, 2006 at 7:23 am
my problem is that when i switch to view only one category pictures ar’nt visible. just title witch i must click t see the pic but i got most of pictures without it so i cant se them at all from category view.
i’ve writen about this earlier but i see my post disappeard.
hope it will change couse i love this theme.
October 9th, 2006 at 10:13 am
Wonderful theme, my blog looks prettier than ever now. Thanks very much
October 9th, 2006 at 1:42 pm
This is great. Simple as it can be.
But… is it possible to have the sidebar on the left side? Also a custom header would be great…
October 9th, 2006 at 2:19 pm
a nice one this time
October 9th, 2006 at 3:52 pm
that’s cool! i’d prefere more “red spots” but it’s ok…
please, why don’t you put a customizable header, too?
i know… i ask always the same things…!
October 9th, 2006 at 5:33 pm
it looks superb but it messes up my picture posts.
October 9th, 2006 at 7:05 pm
I think wordpress is the most sexy thing that was ever created on the internet.. ()like my site () .. anyway.. diwali is coming soon~
get ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 10th, 2006 at 5:37 am
NICE!
nothing more to say
October 10th, 2006 at 11:49 am
Awesome theme! Thank you.
October 10th, 2006 at 1:39 pm
Great new theme, very professional! I like PressRow, but this one has me thinking about change again…
October 11th, 2006 at 12:05 am
I love it! The pink color for the links fits well with the Odeo.com podcast player and the pink “r” in flickr.
The black and white is ever so nice and simple.
Thanks for putting it out there for us to use.
October 11th, 2006 at 3:36 am
love the theme. only suggestion i would have is the ability to have the tagline (in addition to the blog title) in the header.
October 11th, 2006 at 6:55 pm
Awesome addition. Many thanks. Switched.
October 11th, 2006 at 8:16 pm
Me, bad.
I should clarify that having posted earlier that I was using Unsleepable, I noticed the glitches and switched across to Pressrow.
Therein, if you want to see Unsleepable, “Nothing to see here folks. Move along please”
October 12th, 2006 at 1:31 am
Thank you Bryan! We’ve been agonizing over changing themes for about a month (lol)…logged in tonight determined to find the right one. This fit the bill perfectly! Our page looks fantastic.
October 12th, 2006 at 2:24 am
Bryan –
The theme looks great. But there is one issue that keeps me away from using this theme. The “recent entries” section seems to flow beyond its boudaries and that makes it to look ugly. I’ve tried that in Firefox 1.5. If you could fix that then I’ll be on my way to use that theme for sure.
Thanks.
