Today we have another great theme, originally designed by Styleshout and ported into WordPress by myself. As the name implies, this is a simple WordPress theme. It is Gravatar-ready (WordPress 2.5+ only) and has a widget-ready sidebar.

If you’re getting one of those HTTP Error messages after crunching your batch uploads in WordPress 2.5, I have some solutions for you. These errors have plagued people on the WordPress support forums ever since 2.5 was released. The problem may lay with your web hosting configuration, your browser settings, or maybe something else. Don’t give up yet. In this quick guide I’ll go over how to:
There seemed to be a three column theme drought recently, so I decided to port this one called Stylevantage from Styleshout. This template has been around a while, but I couldn’t find any decent WordPress integrations, so decided to do a fresh one myself.
There are three different color stylesheets available (orange default, green, and blue) which can be easily switched out in the header file. Simply change Orange.css to Blue.css or Green.css to change to the color of your choice.
After a few different people requested Gravatar support in the comments for the popular Choice WordPress theme, I decided to look into it more carefully. I came across this great post by HackWordPress which gives you a small code snippet to add Gravatars to your comments loop. Since then, I’ve been adding Gravatar support to all the themes here, just because it’s so simple to do. In this guide I’ll show you how exactly I integrate Gravatars into themes.
Here we have another beautiful design from Rambling Soul, ported into WordPress by me. This free WordPress theme would be great for any nature-related blog. It has a widget-ready sidebar. Comments have Gravatar support for WordPress 2.5 users. It also has native WordPress tag support.
Update - May 26, 2008: The PSD file for RS Garden has been released by RamblingSoul.com.
Sitemaps can be an important factor in making your site more navigable and accessible. And no, I’m not talking about the Google XML Sitemaps which you submit directly directly to Google - never to be seen by human eyes. I’m talking about an actual page on your site that has a list of all your posts and pages. There are a few helpful plugins that can help you out with this. I’ll go over some of them in this guide.
As you probably guessed from the theme name, this free WordPress theme has green and (mostly) brown colors. It is designed by FreeCSS.info and ported into WordPress by me. The sidebar is widget-ready, and the theme has native tag and Gravatar support (WordPress 2.5 and above only).
I thought I would take this opportunity to let you all know of my semi-new site, that has just opened up for business today at PowerTheme.
Yes, this is yet another one of those “premium” WordPress theme sites. At the moment it has only 3 themes, but hopefully I’ll be able to build up that number in the future, while still maintaining high quality. The two paid themes are priced competitively in comparison to other premium theme sites and offer a lot of extra functionality you would expect to see from a paid theme. There’s also a free one entitled Elegance you may want to check out.
Now, will I be spending less time on Theme Lab because of my new site launch? The answer is: not really. I’ll still post tutorials and release free themes here regularly, so don’t worry.
