New Theme: Chunk
August 24, 2011
We are launching another theme for you which goes by the name of Chunk. It has a straightforward look, with bold typography and a well balanced layout. The theme also offers content variety with post formats.

Chunk was designed by Tran N. It comes with support for an optional custom header, background color, and a footer widget area that appears when you populate it with widgets. Check it out at the Theme Showcase or activate it right away in Appearance → Themes.

The flexibility of having different post formats for different content is certainly growing on me; seems like more themes are now supporting this feature, and this is a good, simple theme to use them in.

It doesn’t fit that well with the design — hence the footer widget area.

If it weren’t for my arduous eenie-meenie-miny-moing before I decided on my current theme, I’d have snapped this theme in well, a snap! Love!

Ι’m switched to this finally!
If it had a twitter and a rss icon on the header would be almost perfect!
And if you could add a colour change option.

Thanks Tran for a great theme. Question: Can I remove the huge area where the word “CHUNK” lives on the demo page? I want to use a custom header and delete the default one above it. Thanks!

You can’t currently choose to hide the header text without using CSS.
