This might be one of the most elaborated themes I have made. It has 2 different widget areas and threaded comments, also supports paged comments and has 2 different page templates for advanced usage. The control of images is done from the post page, threw 2 fields that have the instructions on the size of the images.
This theme was released on SmashingMagazine, I am no longer giving support for this theme.
UPDATE
v1.1 Bug fixes
- Prevention of Malicious Code Injection when no search results
- Custom post panel now working properly.
v1.2 Bug fixes
- Updated theme version
- Attempted to solve localhost problems
v1.3 Bug fixes
- Solved localhost problems (thanks to qwerty7)
- Solved bug that I made in v1.2
v1.4
- Took out timthumb script seems its causing to many problems. (Download 1.3 from this link if you wish to use timthumb)
v1.5
- Fixed the adding of slashes with in the theme options panel.
Here's a screencast on how to add images to the slider.

Really nice theme, but I can’t see a contact form anywhere? Is there one built in?
7 Feb, 2010
Hi Chris, I’m sorry to inform you that there is no built in form of any kind. But form elements are styled for pages so you can use any plugin you see fit. I recomend WP-ContactForm7 which is the one i use on this site.

and i added the nextgen plugin to do the portfolio page and put the code into the page after i did the album and images, and yes nothing shows up

Hi, I love this theme…because have home page template and portfolio page template.
Thanks for share…
8 Feb, 2010
It seems you are using older version of Timthumb. Include the latest Timthumb which adds support for adding images from external domains.
8 Feb, 2010
Navjot, yes that is true, but im using an older version for some reason i cant remember since I started this theme back in December right after SimpleBlog.

Hi! This theme is amazing!
I’ve installed it and I ran into a problem. I added new portfolio post and I copied image locations to Small Preview and Large Preview textboxes. But when I’ve published post, everything in those textboxes dissappeared and Slogan isn’t working and Portfolio page also (I guess that it doesnt save any image URL paths). What should I do?
9 Feb, 2010
You need to go to the forums and post your problem there. But first try downloading the theme again and reuploading it to your host, several versions of the theme have come out in the past few hours.
9 Feb, 2010
Wow, very professional theme! Definately one of the nicest free themes I’ve seen. Can’t wait to put it to use :) Thanks a ton!

When I install an extension like Lightbox, I have some problems with the front page (and specially with the front page slider). It doesn’t work.
I’m not sure but there is a problem with the Lightbox’s plugin.
Thanks a lot for this WordPress theme. It’s exactly what I’m looking for.

Great work on this theme. It’s hard to believe, that it’s for free as I’ve seen quite a few of similar type themes offered on themeforest.
