  I’m thinking of starting a new blog that will primarily be a series of quotes (quote-a-day kind of subject). Daily posts would primarily be small sections of text – some would include a photo but many would not. Can anyone suggest a theme that might be appropriate for that style of blog?

  Thank you.

  P2 is just great, love it. There’s one thing that I’d like to change about it. When I’m posting a status update by email, it forces a title on the post if I haven’t provided one in the subject field. The forced title’s not visible on the page but it appears on widgets and feeds as date and time.

  A status update really should not need to have a title.
