4-Column WordPress Theme Gallery
June 10, 2008 by Tony · 5 Comments
In previous posts I featured some of my favorite 2-column WordPress themes, as well as 3-column WordPress themes. Those will likely get the most attention, but I’ve found that there are several bloggers out there that really enjoy 4-column themes. If done properly, a 4-column theme can move a lot more stuff above the fold while at the same time give your blog a fantastic look.
Some WordPress theme designers are truly talented and have managed to make these work, so I’ve decided to create a large collection of these themes and throw them out there in all their glory for everyone to see. Here is my compilation of my favorite 4-column WordPress themes:
Techicon Theme (Widget Ready)
Quadruple Blue Theme
Four WPTP Theme
Royal Blue Theme
YGo Green Theme

I have always been of the opinion that WordPress 2-column themes give your site a much better look than 3-column themes, and I think if you look around the blogosphere at what most full time bloggers use, you will see that these people tend to find the most success with 2-column themes.
There are definitely a lot of brilliant and useful 2-column themes available for WordPress users, so I figured that I would throw together a post compiling screen shots and links to some of the best 2-column themes available:

3-Column WordPress Theme Gallery
June 8, 2008 by Tony · 4 Comments
While most full time bloggers seem to use and prefer 2-column WordPress themes, there is no doubt that 3-column themes are definitely more popular among the WordPress blogger masses. This can be attributed to many things, but the most appealing thing seems to be the ability to place more sidebar stuff above the fold on your blog. This can help you better monetize your blog by allowing more room for advertisements, subscription buttons, and other important sidebar content that needs to be seen by your readers.

The Wordpress i3 Theme
June 8, 2008 by Tony · Leave a Comment
I absolutely love the i3 WordPress theme. I used it for my site for about a month, and I had no problems for what I needed. It features a “mac” look, has the Mac OS X classic background that fades into the mac’s “spotlight blue”. The sidebars are on the left and right side not attached to the middle content. The separate widgets are each in their own little bubble with a mac like toolbar as the header. The theme displays the pages in the middle content column, and this is one of the very rare themes that display the sub-pages very nicely under the page parent. Also you can move around the columns to your liking, so instead of the content being in the middle you can have it off to the right and the sidebars on the left, and vice versa.
If you are on the photos section it would display a small little bar under the pages bar displaying the sub pages, but if you are on the home page it will not display these sub pages. It has a built-in search bar in the top right hand corner, and it looks like the spotlight application in Mac OS X 10.4 and higher, except its black. The only problem I’ve ever had with it is displaying javascript in sidebar, ad- sense would fine, but a simple javascript code would make the sidebar screw up and shift to the bottom of the page. I switched themes because of that and because it is a very popular theme, and I like to switch up my theme every once in a while.
I highly recommend using this theme if you can’t find a better theme for yourself. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day!
Free WordPress Theme: WP Freemium
June 8, 2008 by Tony · Leave a Comment
With many of the top theme designers switching their focus to creating and selling premium WordPress themes, it is always good to see some premium quality WordPress themes being released for free.
Today’s theme is called WP Freemium, and it was originally created by Ptah Dunbar for BloggingTips.com. It looks like due to some complications, BloggingTips.com decided to go another route so Ptah has made this theme available for anyone for free.
Here are the advertised features:
- Valid xHTML Strict 1.0 / CSS
- Code is well commented for the non technical savvy
- Sidebar Widgets enabled
- Custom Front Page with 3 featuring articles
- By default - 6 advertisement spots on all pages
- Gravatars highly Supported for Comments, Author Profiles and Author Posts.
- Author Byline + Promotion on single pages
- Author Profiles feature prominent image of the author with bio, contact details and more
- Image Gallery Support
- Print Stylesheet is included.
- Favicon + iPhone Webclip icon Ready
- SEO Optimized title tags and headers
- 404 Error Page notifies admin each time someone stumbles across a broken link so they can fix it.
I was unable to find a demo, so here are some screenshots provided by the author:
Homepage
Single Page
Author Bio
I really like how this theme was setup for a blog that has multiple authors, making it a great free option for anyone starting a multi-author WordPress blog.
If you’d like to get a copy for your WordPress blog, click over to get WP Freemium.
