Theme Friday: Hemingway and Benevolence

January 7, 2006

Matt

To celebrate the fact that it’s Friday and we love you all, we’ve added two more themes we think are kinda slick.

Benevolence is an “underground” theme that is pretty straightforward and grassy.

Hemingway is one of the more innovative WordPress themes we’ve seen, however it won’t work for all sites. It shows only two posts on the front page, and puts most of the sidebar content at the bottom. It’s also very dark. Check it out, but your site content might not fit it.

Have a good weekend everybody. 🙂

    Lots of these themes are great! and very useful. What I would like to see next is one which allows me to upload a custom graphic for the header.

    This is pretty cool! I like the new themes coming in.

    My one problem at the moment is that I’m administrating a multi-user WordPress.com weblog, and a lot of the themes don’t state anywhere who the author was. Ocadia 1.1 is one of the few that does this, so I’m using that at the moment, but I like a lot of the other themes better. 🙂 Should I hope that this might be introduced later on?

    Excellent news indeed. WordPress will be seeing many new sign ups from Vietnam as I encouraged students here to give it a try.

    Will there be more themes added for non-paying wordpress members or is that pushing it?
