Resurrection is an aesthetically pleasing, 3-column WordPress theme from Vikiworks Studio. The author, Yichi is a Web/UI Developer from Beijing, China.

This new version of Sakura now has 2 sidebars and is still widget ready so you can put more widgets to heart’s content.

Flock users don’t have to worry coz if it works with Firefox, I’m sure it’ll also work with Flock.

WP Theme Review: Rainbow Feather

Here’s a beautiful and colorful Wordpress theme from C. Julian Klewes of h4×3d.com.

Rainbow Feather is a fluid one-column wordpress theme. As the name suggests the colours in this theme are rainbow-ish. From Blue, baby blue, to yellow, orange, white, blue gradient and pink, barbie pink to evil pink. Cool features include: Fancy web2.0 like headings (wet graphics), custom badges “read on” and “continue reading”, matching color scheme/palette, Login area that shows logged in users (well it shows you and gives you options). This is only visible though if you have new user registration on. Also, a cool RSS-Feed graphic.

The author only indicates one column but actually it has a sidebar that is located on the left of the page and also has a bottom bar that you can use to display links, archives or any data that you want to show. Rainbow Feather has a fluid width so you won’t have to worry about screen resolutions.
