Wow! This is one of my favorite looking themes in a while. I have a photo blog and a mixed media blog, primarily, but I can see this working for long posts. Like the image says, it’s the cat’s pajamas. 🙂
Looking just amazing… extremely impressive.
I like it. It’s clean, but not plain.
We’ve seen a bunch of new photo blogs themes lately. Nice to see some for the word-writers (like me).
What I like about simple themes is they’re easy to use. 🙂
Great! Keep new themes coming!
Beautiful, simple layout.
Cool!
As minimalist themes go, this one’s a keeper 🙂
Well done — minimalist themes are always interesting. I’ll keep this one in mind if I ever update mine soon.
Nice theme. I tend to prefer minimalist themes and this one looks great.
Really nice. The typography is bookish too. One of the most original yet usable themes in a while. It’s going to be in my top ten for a long time I suspect.
It’s pretty awesome! I really adore that vintage look – it reminds me of school times.
Nice! Fits me like my own pair of gloves! Inspires me to write more and I’ve already lots and lots of new ideas just waiting to burst.
Looking very good. Maybe I’ll try it.
Classic.
Looking great for my NaNoWriMo blog!
Simple but snappy.
Just my kinda theme! Thank you, WordPress!
Love it!
Elegantly clean. I like it.
It’s nice! Readers will definitely focus on the blog content with this minimalist theme. Good job!
simple, fresh, and clean 🙂 like it!
This is nice. I’m focused on art and drawing though. I think it is simple and clean. Nice theme! Glad to see new themes on the way!
