Description

This WordPress theme features the latest post of the blog with an image to make it stand out. I suggest you use Simple Brown as a personal theme.

Use Images In Your Latest Post

You can use images in this theme to spice up your latest post. Here’s a small tutorial on how to do that.

  1. Upload your picture. I recommend you use an image that has dimensions of 450 by 200 pixels.
  2. Copy the URL of the image
  3. When you are editing your post, scroll down. You will find an option to add custom fields.
  4. Add key image and add the URL of your image to the value box.

You don’t have to donate. All I ask is if you could leave the link back to DivitoDesign in the footer (I will use Google to find out where my themes are used!)

    Great theme!

    I’ve been looking at something similair looking at the layout for my business. To have kind of a section on the front page quickly just giving my elevator pitch and then on to the blog.

    I don’t see many that I can quite customize like I’d want to that don’t cost, well, a lot.

    An option has emerged, but change takes time.

    Thanks!

    indeed, it is a simple theme but then it looks wonderful..
    i think this is recommended for newbie bloggers to start with

  7. nice design in general but the colors are a bit bland for my tastes, i dont think you can go wrong with a nice light blue and white like the theme you have in place now.

  8. very simple yet elegant-looking!

    You know, at first I thought that I wouldn’t like brown, but it has a nice kind of modern urban feel. And with the right image, I think it could really pop. Thanks, and Im downloading it! Shaw

  19. Webmaster says:

    Good and beautiful

  20. tunturiana says:

    Thanks for the theme. I’m trying to make ones myself, they aren’t really cute though

  21. I realy love this design and the color scheme is nice too. I’m going to use this design in my next wordpress blog. I’m just trying to figure out what images I should use for the most recent posts. I don’t want them to stand out too much wich is possible with the brown color scheme.

  22. Nice. Really lovely theme. The colors are so very well matched. Simple and nice. Great stuff. I’m going to try this out for sure. Thanks. Cheers

  23. Rize says:

    Great you like this theme Tertius!Thanks

  24. Great theme . . . you do nice work!

  25. I’ll definitely let our wordpress users know about your theme. It is very nicely layered.

    Congratulations ! and Keep the good work.

  26. Great theme!

    Were always on the hunt for great themes to offer our clients as add ons to their ecommerce websites http://www.net-insight.co.uk/ecommerce-website-design.php

  27. Great theme! Will you also be offering a black and white version of it? It will look really sleek…

  28. Great Job on the template. Clean and simple. Very readable, and modern looking. Magazine style menus are the way to go…It may be a cool idea to set it up so the color templates can change. :)

  29. Nice design and solid colors. It’s good to see more free themes for WordPress that have a decent design to them. Keep it up and thanks for this one.

  30. Another really nice theme. Some of the themes I’m seeing around here are quite nice. I like that this one is colourful yet understated. It doesn’t blind you with graphics, but the colors make it far from boring.
    Well done.
