New Theme: K2
Due to popular request we’ve got a version of K2 up on WordPress.com. We call it lite—same great taste, less filling.
We’ve tricked it out a bit with avatars, a little extra styling, and of course custom headers.
If you like Kubrick, there is a very good chance you’ll dig K2 so give it a try.

October 10th, 2006 at 8:59 am
I really like this theme!
The only problem is that when I am in my front page, the label in the header is blank (i.e. there’s it’s no written “home” or whatever). And when I am in another page (e.g. “about”), the “home page” label disappear…

And again a theme which doens’t show the post author… To sad… Otherwise nice theme…
October 10th, 2006 at 11:04 am
Great Job,
Thanks
October 10th, 2006 at 11:32 am
K2 and Unsleepable – my two wp.com THEMES. Hats Off!
October 10th, 2006 at 11:42 am
Nice, it’s simple and minimalistic.
October 10th, 2006 at 11:44 am
It was inevitable!
Good theme that one.
October 10th, 2006 at 11:54 am
Absolutely fabulous. The WP.com community is going to partay down.
You lot are marvellous.
October 10th, 2006 at 12:16 pm
Perfect! I’ve been looking forward to something like this! =D
October 10th, 2006 at 12:19 pm
I applied it on moi other blog and itz pretty good….I’ve always felt that the sub-headings (those watch icons & other text below the post title) were too cluttered in K2 but this is kinda trimmed version I suppose!
There’s one Oddity though, when there are multiple pages, the ‘active’ page tab shows up clearly but the tabs for the other page show up as Plain white
October 10th, 2006 at 12:21 pm
thanks for the groovy new theme…
October 10th, 2006 at 12:28 pm
Though I don’t use Kubrick, I like the style. K2 looks just as sleek, if not better.
Thanks for your hard work, guys! ^^
October 10th, 2006 at 1:08 pm
This is great Matt; both Unsleepable and K2 Lite are really good minimalistic themes that make blogs popular for what they should be — content
. I presume the next few themes may have more pizzaz in the form of visual appeal or intelligent use of color. Perhaps, Origami (Lite) may find its way in here soon
.
October 10th, 2006 at 1:20 pm
Wow, this one’s smooth, I bet this’ll be the most popular now. I’m still debating whether I want to switch, but it’s always good to have options! Thanks for the updates!
October 10th, 2006 at 1:25 pm
At long last! K2!
October 10th, 2006 at 2:07 pm
Looks like a good, no-nonsense option
Nice work, folks!
October 10th, 2006 at 2:07 pm
As usual, I’ve got wptheme.wordpress.com wearing K2 now if anyone wants to check it out
October 10th, 2006 at 2:16 pm
My First WordPress Theme: Unwakeable
You may have noticed the additional page up at the top. It’s home to my WordPress theme, Unwakeable. Unwakeable is basically K2 with the Unsleepable header.
It’s currently built off K2 0.9.1. I plan on keeping this theme in sync with all…
October 10th, 2006 at 2:38 pm
nice but miss the AJAX
October 10th, 2006 at 2:57 pm
cool
it’s always good a new theme
October 10th, 2006 at 2:59 pm
simple,but pretty.Maybe I use it futurely
October 10th, 2006 at 3:11 pm
I am not switching for awhile. It took me quite some time to figure out how to get “unsleepable” no to display double widgets. But, it looks clean. I wouldn’t mind another theme or two.
October 10th, 2006 at 3:27 pm
That one looks very nice! Thanks for yet another theme — you guys do, indeed, rock.
October 10th, 2006 at 3:33 pm
Sweetness! Thanks WordPress.com team!
(The blog tab isn’t labeled – can you fix that?)
October 10th, 2006 at 3:48 pm

October 10th, 2006 at 3:56 pm
very nice! thanks!
October 10th, 2006 at 4:04 pm
OMG. You guys just made a whole lot of people happy & jumping in their seats, me included. Thanks a bunchhhh! =D
October 10th, 2006 at 4:51 pm
Thanks. Great theme!
October 10th, 2006 at 5:03 pm
i must say this IS a nice, neat, nimble layout. easy to customize. I’ll consider using it for my blog.
Meanwhile, keep up with your GREAT work!
Glad I switched to wordpress.
October 10th, 2006 at 5:22 pm
Awesome. Two days. Two great themes.
Rock on guys!! WordPress rules
October 10th, 2006 at 5:53 pm
Now all it needs is a rotating filmloop header http://www.filmloop.com/
October 10th, 2006 at 5:58 pm
Ewww, it looks too blah, and the main background and the text body background need to diffenentiate themselves more. And what is with the white space on the left side of the page? Should it not be white with like blue writing or whatever saying “home”?
October 10th, 2006 at 6:23 pm
I’ve finally found my theme (after switching 4-5 for a while). Thanks!
October 10th, 2006 at 6:23 pm
My wish-come-true.
Thank you, K2 rocks
October 10th, 2006 at 6:35 pm
Looks like a sweet theme, loving the development of wordpress features, keep reading how wordpress is toppling the blogging scene! great work guys!
October 10th, 2006 at 6:59 pm
Very nice – I wish more themes had text that was justified on both sides.
October 10th, 2006 at 7:22 pm
The pencil and other little images are too much for me.

October 10th, 2006 at 7:44 pm

Great. Thanks Matt! I have been asking for this theme for months, and i am thrilled to finally have it.
I hope that eventually, it will also include the full features of K2.
This is a beautiful theme, and I am totally grateful for this being a part of wordpress.com now.
I have my custom theme done, if anyone cares to see.
You rock Matt!
October 11th, 2006 at 4:16 pm
