  Is there a theme that allows your most current post to be front and center, but then will take the older posts and put them in smaller boxes along the bottom (either vertically or horizontally)? It would be preferable for the theme to also have at least 2 columns, be able to load a logo in the header, change the color of the background, responsive theme, custom menus, and if not infinite scroll then be able to display pages at the bottom for readers to click on. Thanks!

  Hi there,

  Picking a theme is a very personal decision, but I can point you in the right direction!

  Firstly, you can see all of our themes here, including demo sites that show what the theme looks like when it is set up.
  http://theme.wordpress.com/

  One handy thing to know about is the theme chooser tool, which you can access by clicking on the “Find a theme” button shown here:
  https://cloudup.com/cwAhIXwawsC+

  From there, you can chose the features that are important to you, and find themes based on those.

  It would be preferable for the theme to also have at least 2 columns, be able to load a logo in the header, change the color of the background, responsive theme, custom menus, and if not infinite scroll then be able to display pages at the bottom for readers to click on. Thanks!

  Based on those features, this is a good place to start, though you will want to look at the home page on the demo site for each theme, to find one that suits you best.

  Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

  Thanks for your reply. I was just wondering if you knew of any theme specifically that allowed the current post on the front but then instead of having the infinite scroll of all previous posts in full blown up format, they had it shrunk into boxes under the original post. Thanks!

  Hi there,

  Actually, quite a few themes have this kind of layout, which is why I recommend checking out the demo sites to see if there is one that has a custom home page layout similar to what you are looking for. For example, here are a few that have that kind of layout:

  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/organization/
  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/simfo/
  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/expound/

  Hope that helps!
