Andreas04 and Thirteen

We’ve been pretty busy updating all our themes to use the nifty new widget system, but today for Theme Friday I rustled up a fantastic theme to bring to you guys.

Andreas04 is from the same designer as Andreas09, but has a little more relaxed feel. It also has two wigetized sidebars, but both on the right. Top-level pages are put into the navigation at the top, which could make for some very cool pages.

Thirteen is an absolutely gorgeous theme from the amazing Beccary. It’s a green theme with lovely flourishes, and of course we’ve updated it to have a dynamic sidebar. Enjoy!
Finally we updated Simpla to fix the sidebar bug that has been plaguing a lot of people.

    Why do you guys rock so much? IF wordpress keeps getting better at this rate, you won’t have anything to improve soon. 😛

    Andreas04 is fabolous, I’ve just changed to give my blog a new feel. As for the 13, it’s neat in a different sort of way. 😛

    Yay! Thirteen!

    Thirteen is my all time favorite theme, I just fell in love with it the first time I checked out Beccary’s themes.
    So this if for the WordPress.com people: Thank you!
    My search for a ‘perfect theme’ around here is finally over.

    Thirteen look awesome… but I’d still hope that Hemingway Theme gets a little extra widget like “recent comments”. I must say, it’s a very unique easy to use theme.

    Despite of, GREAT WORK!

    Any chance of labelling those themes that have widgets enabled and those that don’t?
    A simple (*) would be enough.

    You should have linked Andreas Viklund too (http://andreasviklund.com), when you link to the amazing Beccary. But then again, that guy has two themes in here. I am jealous! 🙂 Nice themes they are too!

    I like Thirteen very much and picked it as my new theme. One thing I like is that the sidebar is on the right, where it belongs according my opinion. The thing I like, but unfortunaly it sits in the way; is the image of that flower in the top-left. I like to have my sidebar-content start at the top, so people don’t have to scroll to much.

    Any chance you can add the K2 theme (getk2.com) with its nifty AJAX commenting?

    Thirteen is very elegant – I’ve moved over to it. Love the colour scheme.

    Yes, I like the 04 better than 09.

    I have a fixed picture and text to the right top corner of the blog.

    What I would like to see is that the 04 covered the whole screen and leaved so broad margins on both sides. You can not use the full window in “write” mode, pictures are then published partely outside frame.

    By using full screen themes and more room for fixed pictures and text the better.

    Thirteen is a gorgeous theme. Wish it were available with 2 sidebars, though.

    Thirteen is really pretty– when I tried to switch my theme, one of my links categories is “too long”– or thirteen’s column header doesn’t expand to fit. Sadface. It’s pretty.
