New Theme: Fadtastic
December 6, 2006
Right on Matt’s tail, I have a theme I’d like to introduce to you all. I told myself that the next theme you’d see me release would either have 3-columnes or be fluid, and you happen to get both with Fadtastic.
As you can see, it’s a pretty bright theme which supports two widgtized sidebars. Oh, and this one is also pretty green, just not as green as the last one.

Good work! But I realised the words go out of alignment after “blockquote”. Also prefer something which gives a full post or at least an intro section for subsequent entries instead of just the title.

Nice. It is bright, however I don’t know if I like the cut off of a blog entry and only the header displays for the past few posts. Anyway that some customization like that could come into it?

Looks cool. 😉 It’s fantastic. Users will have more designs to choose from in WordPress.com and, rest assured, it will make your blog feel good-lookin’. So keep it up, Mr. B!

I’ll change the whole “excerpt as the first entry” to a full post for the first entry. And I’ll check that blockquote problem out as well.

Come on you guys, your efforts are appreciated, but can’t ya’ll make something fun and sexy, or dark and luscious…or brooding and mysterious, or maybe something in fun shades like bright reds and pinks?
Why don’t you create one called Electra, inspired by Carmen? lol
Thanks again.

Gee, a new green and blue theme. That will provide a great alternative to the existing blue, green, black, gray and occasional-maroon-or-orange-accent themes. Somebody needs to get you guys a color wheel and cover the “cool” part of it with masking tape.

‘Tis a pleasant theme that’s easy on the eyes, as always. However, I’m with Stiletto Girl on this one. I wouldn’t mind trying out a three-column theme, but the main reason I’m sticking with the “Neat” theme is because it’s dark. Put those two things together, and I think I’d give it a whirl.

Yay, a 3-column theme. Hopefully there will be more 3-column themes coming up 🙂

Three column themes are just what I’m looking for, but after using Press Row for a while, I’m not willing to give up the custom header…

Great Job, Bryan but I’d rather see the sidebars placed in Left & Right.

Gah! Is there any way not to have the 2nd sidebar contents repeat itself at the BOTTOM? It’s redundant, and looks really really bad.

You need some minutes to get used to it, but I like it very much – especially because it has a fluid width and overall three columns, we could use more of them 😀

I quite like it. I’d probably switch to if it had some more customisation options (colours and title text and so on).
It looks good anyway. Well done 🙂

I have been waiting for another three column theme for a long time (I use Andreas) but after reading everyone’s comments I wonder whether I should switch.

I like it but could we have the option of an excerp on later posts rather than just the posts title or maybe the option of more than just one full post – option of 1, 3 or 5 – something like that.
also the abilty for a pic in the title.
thanks for the effort though… 🙂

I like it. I want to use it. But there are two problems:
1. No support for my custom image header. boooo!
2. I looove the second column – just what I needed. But how do I move widgets into that second column? No can do! booooo!
You guys at WP rock – I’m keeping the faith.
Cheers,
Mark.

A fantastic-looking theme! Just when I thought that this was the one I was waiting for, I see a hitch — only the last post being displayed in full and the next 9 (or is it 8?) with only headlines. Too bad!

Good job but please can we have some more colour options. Thanks

Ahhh… another huge problems for this theme design.
3. The front page only has 1 post on it. This is quite attractive actually.
4. So then people are forced into one of the post. This is the big problem. When viewing an individual post like this
http://achristian.wordpress.com/2006/12/07/the-facets-and-shades-and-colors-of-people/
there is no way to view or even RECENT POSTS or RELATED POSTS.
Therefore every individual post page is a dead end. The visitor leaves.
This theme is visually attractive but it falls down – seriously – in it’s functionality and usefulness.
But WP rocks on!! I’m keeping the faith!! (In spite of someone disabling my login).
Cheers,
Mark.

Hurray! This what I’ve been clamoring for months. We really needed–and still need–a number of three-column themes which we can use to accomodate and make prominent the myriad of links on our weblogs. This is definitely a good step forward. We’re waiting for more.

Excellent theme! From now on my default! I would like to ask 2 things:
– if possible, more full text articles on front page (than just 1)
– if possible, the comment form AFTER the comments. Someone always first reads an article, then reads the comments, and then he may comment the article (using the form). I think it would be better if Comments are JUST BELOW article and the comment form AFTER the comments.
Thanks again guys for the time you spent making our life easier more wonderful!

I admire the hard work and creativity with all these themes, but am the only person who thinks these doubled up sidebars make pages look lopsided and overwhelming? A sidebar on each side makes more sense to me, if two are needed.

I like the look… but I’m concerned about lack of traffic to older posts. I’d like the option of how many posts to show up on the main page… though I doubt that will be added.
We’ll see how it goes.
