New Themes: Anthem and Luscious

I’m happy to announce that we have added two great new premium themes to our ever-expanding Theme Showcase!

First up is Anthem – a responsive, minimal design from The Theme Foundry.

Anthem is perfect for artists, designers, and photographers who want their images to take center stage. Choose from seven different post formats to give each post a unique look and feel. Anthem provides 4 customizable widget areas in the footer as well as 3 custom menu locations. You can also upload a custom logo image which can be cropped into a circle. Want to find out more? Head on over to the Theme Showcase!

Next up we have Luscious by StudioPress.

This eye-catching design has been custom-tailored with bloggers and publishers in mind. The deep red tones of Luscious are embellished with bright red and yellow accents drawing attention to each post’s heading. Choose from 6 different layout options, 2 custom menu locations and 7 widgets areas. Read more about Luscious in the Theme Showcase.

    I am LOVING Luscious…I recently had a blogging class at San Francisco State critique my blog (without my knowledge…until I got all these hits from a San Francisco State blog page), and one bit of feedback seems to be that my color scheme can be hard on the eyes. But I also intentionally chose dark colors (red and black) to communicate a message. But the deep colors in Luscious might just fit the bill…

    Thank you!

    🙂

    What stops me from buying (!) Luscious is it has no responsive width to show off on mobile devices. Otherwise, It looks about what I am looking for to meld all my blogs together into one. I am surprised a blog centered theme would lack mobile device widths.

    This is a great theme – EXCEPT for the colours!!!

    Change the colours to; Black, Charcoal, White (keep the same grey background) – you know the old I-book colours.

    If you do that, I’ll use it right away. Very nice and organized, ergo friendly.

    But those colours – ouch!

      Hello, Thanks for your feedback on the colors. If the layout is perfect for you and the only thing holding you back is the color scheme, you might want to try out the Custom Design upgrade. It works with all of our themes!

    Anthem is cool, if a bit empty-looking (which makes sense, considering that it’s for photos), but Luscious is really fantastic. My only regret is that I don’t have a blog that it would be perfect for. . . . Oh wait, I do! So thanks!

    Why is Anthem was dedicated to photographs? The word ‘anthem’ should be used for a music theme. Oh sorry, I’ve waited a long time for a good-looking and good-featured music theme, and Anthem looks perfect. I like its ‘responsive’ design with any screen. 🙂 and I support these efforts must be appreciated by becoming paid themes.

    I think I’m in love with Anthem!! I love these kinds of simplistic themes.
    Luscious is pretty cute too, although it’s not my style.
    Thank you! Thank you!

    Oh, I love the Luscious theme. If I ever decide to commit to a paid theme, it will be a close call between Funki and Luscious
