Today we have a very nice free WordPress theme, originally designed by Styleshout and ported into WordPress by me. The sidebar is widget-ready, has Gravatar support on the comments, and WordPress tag support. This theme has also been tested and working in WordPress 2.6.

Hey,

Very nice theme. I gave the demo a try. Very well laid out, and very easy to navigate. I wonder if you could port some of my WordPress (.PSD) themes into - well - WordPress.

I love that header as well, Very urban.

@Aguair: I’m a bit busy at the moment, but do you have any samples of your previous work? I could take a look.

@Anto: Yeah, this one does look like a remake of TechJunkie, kinda like UrbanArtist was a remake of Colourise.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Hey,

Yeah, I can only give an image as I don’t know how to do a demo page. I will comment back in a few.

Widgets aren’t working for me. Do I have to update to Wordpress 2.6 to get this working?

@Aguair: Not a bad start. Can you code XHTML/CSS as well?

@Jay: Oops…thanks for letting me know. I forgot some code in the sidebar. Just updated the sidebar.php file.

Right below the first line (div id=”sidebar”) put:

<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>

Right above the last line (/div) put:

<?php endif; ?>

Thanks,

It’s only my 2nd theme - So I’m pretty happy with it. And I can’t code it into XHTML well enough for it to show how I want it. I can get someone to code it for free - I think - I hope. Got any good names?

Thanks.

nice theme-

can you tell me how i can add a link in the header to get to the dashboard?
tried modifying the header.php but i don’t think i have the right code.

it would be great to have that in the header after the login or rss feed.

i don’t really want to have a meta widget to do that.

please advise.

thanks and great work.

Nice one, I use it on my site. Just modded it a bit. Do you think you could do a bbPress version of it? I’m going to switch to that soon.
