New Theme: Trvl
June 6, 2013
It’s Thursday, and you know what that means on WordPress.com: new themes! Today we’d like to introduce you Trvl.
Trvl is a tumblelog theme that’s all about blogging. With a beautiful and simple design by Danny Cohen, Trvl puts your posts front and center. Literally.
It supports a variety of post formats to mix up the appearance of your blog posts in a nifty way. Add spice with a custom header image, widgets, and a footer navigation menu.
Find out more about how to get started with Trvl on the Theme Showcase, or activate it on your blog by going to Appearance -> Themes.

Interesting theme. How is the name of it pronounced, though?

We do have a few “real estate” friendly themes:

I’d pronounce it trivel… but unfortunately that sounds to me like dribble… 🙂

I really don’t like dark backgrounds and white lettering. Brevity in text and heavy in imaging would work, I suppose.

Feel free to change the background color in Appearance > Background!

Nice palette and use of space – looks great on big screens too!
League Gothic, the headings font, works well – I’ve used that before and found it’s good for headings because it’s not too wide.
@Val maybe like “travel”… “tra-Val”! Or if we’re disemvoweling… “travaille”?

I think I would pronounce this travel or trivial…just a guess :~) The simplistic layout really draws in the eyes..and opens up the page to post something really exciting in that spot!

I like how sharp & clean it is. How do you make your own themes? I’m new to all this so would love a little info on customizing my blog.

Hi! You can’t create brand new themes on WordPress.com, but you can modify existing themes pretty extensively with the Custom Design upgrade:
https://wordpress.com/support/custom-design/
You may also be interested in a self-hosted WordPress site, where you can install and create new themes of your own. You can read about the difference between self-hosted WordPress and WordPress.com here:
https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
And if you want to get into building themes, the Theme Team has a tutorial for creating themes here:

I hope this helps!
