New Themes: Hum, Monster, and Timepiece
We know you’ve been waiting for it – Theme Day has arrived, and with it comes three awesome new themes!
First up is Hum, a beautifully designed theme by Automattic’s very own Daryl Koopersmith. Based on Twenty Eleven, Hum offers up a new twist on an old favorite, with a fixed left sidebar, support for multiple post formats, and space for a logo. Simplify, bring your content front and center, and do so in graceful elegance with Hum. Visit the theme showcase to make Hum your very own!
Next up we have a seasonal treat. In many parts of the world, the leaves have started to turn, the air is getting crisp, and that can mean only one thing – the witching season is upon us! Why not decorate your blog for the occasion?
Introducing Monster, a frightfully spooky Halloween theme designed by fellow Wrangler Michael Fields and illustrated by yours truly. This theme features six classic monster figures to choose from, so you can change it up to suit your mood.
And last, but certainly not least, we have Timepiece. Designed by Joen Asmussen, Timepiece is built to make your archives shine. Like a river of content, the theme will make going back in time easy peasy and show it all to you in glorious color and a simple, minimalist layout.
Timepiece: Home Page With Custom Header
Read more about its features on the Theme Showcase or dive right into previewing it on your blog from Appearance → Themes.

Timepiece – Amazing theme

Monster makes me laugh. Hum draws my interest. Timepiece may be right for me.
Cheers for the Themes Staff for rolling out these new themes for our use.

With a cool header and 6 post formats, “Timepiece” will be sophisticated.
Oct 5th at 10:50 pm
Again, cool works from the theme team! Timepiece has very interesting structure.
Oct 6th at 3:23 am
Fabulous layouts.
Oct 6th at 3:25 am
Hum is cool, but Timepiece is amazing! If I wasn’t committed to Nuintus on my current blog, Timepiece would probably be the one I would be looking for.

Hum and Timepiece are tempting me to change my layout! Thanks for making it non-premium themes available for everyone!
Oct 6th at 6:00 am
Nice themes, well done!
Oct 6th at 7:37 am
Monster is lovely.
Oct 6th at 8:08 am

Oct 6th at 10:36 am
Just changed my blog theme to Monster. Love it!
Oct 6th at 1:03 pm
Thanks for constantly providing us wonderful choices!
Oct 6th at 1:20 pm
Hum is so crisp and clean. My blog is almost all words, and I can see Hum making the whole thing more readable and fun. Thanks for being so creative.
Oct 6th at 3:13 pm
The Monster theme is LOL!
Oct 6th at 3:18 pm
I love the Monster theme.

Love Hum!

Neat themes! Not really my style, though.
Oct 6th at 7:32 pm
Timepiece is awesome, man!
Oct 6th at 10:12 pm
Hello! Hum is really rich in customization after viewing it in the showcase and extremely impressive. The image here really doesn’t do it justice (no offence intended at all) But it sounds amazing.
Monster is too cute and would be great for bloggers young and even old with it’s fun factor. But Timepiece, for me personally, would not suit. Still great that they are all non-premium. Thumbs-up and a thanks, WP!

Monster is a great theme! The font is easy to read and the layout is simple, yet spacious and catchy. Excellent work!
Oct 7th at 1:22 am
I just saw this! I think it’s so cute, I almost used it but at this time it doesn’t serve my blog’s purpose.
Oct 7th at 1:27 am
Hum is brilliant – exactly what I was looking for for my photoblog!
Oct 7th at 2:08 am
Wow x3.
Hum is really fantastic!
Oct 7th at 2:45 am
I think I’m going to use Timepiece… I think my blog will look better.
Oct 7th at 4:55 am
I’m loving the Hum theme! I can’t wait to activate that theme soon
Oct 7th at 1:07 pm
Love them!
Oct 7th at 6:14 pm
Liking the Hum Theme. Simplicity is best!
Oct 7th at 6:45 pm
Monster theme looks awesome for Halloween or for general use.
Oct 8th at 1:41 am
Great themes. Something for everyone here. Timepiece looks intriguing.
I also like the “Frankenbone” illustration on Monster. Looks like me some days – except he has more hair…
Oct 8th at 4:00 am
Thanks for giving us yet more options! Love the idea of holiday-themes to decorate and celebrate the seasons. Also look forward to reading Timepiece-themed blogs. It’s minimalist without losing an artistic aesthetic.
Oct 8th at 7:38 am
I like the Monster theme. Cute >,<
Oct 8th at 10:19 am
I must have missed these when they got emailed around — they are just fantastic! Monster is my favourite. I’m thoroughly tempted to set up about a million new blogs just so I can use that theme repeatedly.
Oct 8th at 3:08 pm
I like Timepiece.
Oct 8th at 3:29 pm
Hum! I’ve been waiting for you. I’ve been searching for a minimalist theme and it finally arrived! Yeah yeah!
Oct 8th at 4:24 pm
Hum is so nice.
Oct 9th at 4:07 am
Loving Monster. I’m gonna use it…even after Halloween too.
Oct 9th at 9:56 am
Love the monster theme….not really ideal for my blog but very cool simple design
Oct 9th at 10:18 am
Nice one…
Oct 9th at 7:07 pm
Love Monster! I’m using it on one of my blogs! Perfect for Halloween!
Oct 9th at 11:52 pm
Monster is cool!
Oct 10th at 12:12 pm
Nice set of themes!
Oct 10th at 3:20 pm
Monster is a very good theme for a professional text blog, maybe the best available on WordPress. The only thing I don’t like is too much header height, otherwise it is nearly perfect.
Oct 13th at 10:59 pm
Will Timepiece be available for self hosted blogs?
Oct 15th at 12:22 pm
We don’t have a timeline on when Timepiece will be released for self-hosted blogs, but yes, that’s the plan.
Oct 14th at 5:10 am
Timepiece looks amazing. Gonna give it a try!
Oct 17th at 2:45 am
Cool monsters!
Oct 17th at 5:46 pm
Thanks, this Monster theme is quite appropriate for this time of year.
