New Theme: Retro-fitted
I’m pleased to announce the latest addition to the ever-growing collection of free themes here at WordPress.com. Retro-fitted by Justin Tadlock mixes subtle textures with clean lines and shadows to create a beautifully balanced composition perfect for all types of blogs.
Retro-fitted can be personalized in a variety of ways. Customize the look of your blog by uploading a header and background image. Take control of you navigation by configuring the dropdown menu. Add widgets to the sidebar for a two-column layout or leave it empty for a single column design.
Check it out in the Theme Showcase.

That’s a pretty unique theme! Not quite my style, but I’m sure a lot of people will use it.

I do like this theme; it’s classic like, simple, and wonderful. I like its graphics, and the style is simple and clean. All together, WordPress rocks and so does this theme! Congratulations to the designer/coder

Very nice I might try this for my blog

I do love have simple and clean the 2-column design is — totally easy for navigation. And I’m digging the almost 3D effect of the posts…brilliant!

Simple theme, but I like it! Simple is best!

Feb 14th at 10:35 pm
I think it looks a bit old. Would not use it for my blog.
Feb 14th at 10:37 pm
Love this theme! Perfect for what I want to do. Thank you!
Feb 14th at 10:59 pm
A very nice theme that doesn’t quite fit the tech blogger style
Still, a lot of people are sure to appreciate it!

Wow, wonderful. I like theme with the blue one.
Feb 15th at 3:53 am
Thanks for the theme. I’m giving it a try. Is there anyway to make the sidebar boxes (around the widget’s) smaller. ie. my RSS feed looks so lonely in there.

I Like Your Themes Very Much…….But How Can I Use It For Creat A Blog……?????
Feb 15th at 4:43 am
I kind of like it — I hope there are more grungy themes on the horizon – even for a fee. I’m not in love with what I have – but it best respresents my blog at this time.
Feb 15th at 4:57 am
Classy, simple, and ‘easy on the eyes’.
Well done WordPress.com…well done.
Feb 15th at 5:44 am
Pretty good and new styled theme.
Feb 15th at 6:27 am

Feb 15th at 6:47 am
Very cool
Feb 15th at 10:27 am

I like Justin Tadlock’ style. There is a balance between the beauty and the functionality.
Feb 15th at 3:29 pm
Nice!
Feb 15th at 3:39 pm
Not my cuppa tea !!
Feb 15th at 4:04 pm
Didn’t realize it was so new. Saw this and used it straight away on my new blog: http://worldsporttalk.wordpress.com/
Works really well.
Feb 15th at 7:59 pm
Simple and very clean. Love it
Feb 15th at 10:38 pm
The designs are very nice.
Feb 16th at 1:56 am
Great! Another welcome development.
Feb 16th at 3:33 am
I think the whole idea about the Retro- Fitted blog is great. I am looking forward to useing this new addition to my blog.
Feb 16th at 5:05 pm
Its a great theme indeed, old-style
Feb 16th at 10:28 pm
Very nice and creative theme you got there.
Feb 17th at 4:11 am

Feb 17th at 4:29 am
Clean, very cool.
Feb 17th at 11:34 am
I love the theme and am already using it! I want to however change the header font.
Feb 17th at 3:10 pm
Pretty cool, but I’ll choose Suburbia.
Feb 18th at 5:35 am
Nice one, but I’m still like the recent theme on my blog.
Feb 18th at 7:30 am
I really like the look of this theme…but what happened to the HOME tab?
Feb 18th at 1:33 pm
A simple theme, nice!
Feb 19th at 4:49 am
Nice theme, it is loading faster than my previous theme [^_^]
Feb 19th at 7:36 pm
cool!
Feb 20th at 4:10 am
I like this a lot. The shadows I think create a very rich look, without over-doing anything. Well done!
Feb 20th at 4:15 am
Looking good! Clean and easy on the eyes.
Feb 20th at 10:48 am
I’ve been waiting for a theme like this to come along. It works well in terms of accessibility: big fonts, lots of clear space, the “Leave a comment” links in a reasonably visible colour. I would like to be able to turn the orange line and the orange search box into different colours, but I suspect that I would still be looking for a dramatic contrast.
I have it loaded on my blog if anyone wants to take a look: http://beefaerie.wordpress.com/
Thanks for the great theme.
Feb 20th at 8:04 pm
I’m not sure is the style I want, but I think it will be useful to other WordPress users.
Feb 21st at 7:11 am
Looks nice; Will try on my test blog then move to official one;
Feb 21st at 8:35 am
I prefer a clean cut without too big images coz I use plenty of text, anyway i think many will like this.
Feb 21st at 10:50 am
Nice! I’m using it. It’s really unique. Totally my type.
Feb 22nd at 12:23 pm
Thanks for this great theme!
Feb 22nd at 1:21 pm
it looks cool…simple style but easy for viewers to look at
Feb 22nd at 4:00 pm
Using it now. Like the nice easy lay out, easy for readers to follow.
Feb 23rd at 7:58 pm
Nice and clean, great for photos.
Feb 26th at 12:10 am
Ooo I like a bit of retro but as a new user here, themes are something I’ll look into later!
Feb 26th at 6:53 am
I like it, but then again I like anything retro.
Feb 28th at 7:39 am
This theme is nice. I might give it a try.
