    I love it. I’ve already activated it and it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for, Simple and clean yet eye catching.

    Is it possible to come up with a free, interactive theme that works well on widescreen monitors and has cool colors throughout it (not just at the top or on the sidebar)? Just asking cuz a gamer-oriented theme would be fantastic, and the only two themes that would work for me, personally, are outside my budget.

    i have tried this theme using live preview. the theme is simple and elegant but not much to customise to differentiate this theme from other blogs using the same design. I did a post (http://alittletypical.wordpress.com/2013/09/07/live-preview-of-highwind-theme/) on the theme’s pros and cons.

    I just tried out the new theme. For some reason the drop down menus wouldn’t drop down.

    It’s a nice theme, I love it. But the cropping of the header image is absurd, it asks for a 2500 x 413 pixels file and then uses like half of it.

    Using it right now.
