Two Themes I Dislike and One I Love

Let’s start with the theme I love just to get it out of the way so I can talk about the themes I don’t like.

First Theme - I Do Like - Blue Green [live demo]

A great looking 3 column WordPres theme that has a great style to it. The theme has a similar color scheme to the first WordPress theme that I ever used Light 1.0. That may be why I like it so much. I love how the theme handles the recent comments widget (visit the live demo to see it).

Second Theme - I Don’t Like - BlueSands [live demo]

I’m not going to say much about this theme except that it looks very similar to the WordPress admin panel and I don’t have to tell you that the WordPress admin panel is ugly.

Third Theme - I Don’t Like - Morning Mountain [live demo]

Although the theme has 3 columns which I love, a simple color scheme, which I love. The header image looks like a default Windows wallpaper and the post date look terrible. If you use this theme please get a new header image and change the background image for the post date, PLEASE.

    Thanks for the review Michael. I will put a little extra work into the date button on the theme’s next release.

    Just stumbled across this review. The irony is that I designed BlueSands to look a bit like the WordPress dashboard. I kind of like the header and colors. The rest of the theme was just going for minimalism. It’s a matter of personal preference, though. :)
