If you haven’t learned that I’m in love with Thesis, then you don’t have a clue who I am and you’ve never visited this site. And I’m thinking that’s probably not the best way to start off this post. But my backspace key is broken. (Take that, English 101 professor! I started consecutive sentences with conjunctions. Booyah.)
For the past year or so, this blog has been run on the beautifully designed and coded Thesis Theme. I’ve customized quite a few looks on top of it over that time (including the one you’re currently viewing).
In that timeframe a new market for Thesis Skins (think of them as custom-customized layouts) has developed. I even listed a few back in the day (and even sold one for a while). There have been a few good ones, and a whole bunch of really bad ones. I’ve never been completely lured in by one. That is, until now.
Matt Hodder, one of the leading Thesis Customizer-ers, has completely changed the game with Thesis Play. And I promise, he’s not paying me to say this. (Although, Matt, I won’t stop you if you try.)
It’s one of the cleanest designs I’ve seen yet. Perfect use of whitespace, lines, and that readability/typography stuff we love so much. But it’s more than just a simple skin. (That’s 3 conjunction-started sentences if you’re tracking.) It’s 8 skins. No, seriously, it comes with 8 different color schemes. That’s like a lot.
Additionally, it has its own options panel in the Wordpress admin that makes it very simple to change color schemes, header images, footer links, etc. It’s quite sexy. You can even get the psd from him if you’d like to make more advanced changes.
Take a look at it here, and check out these quality things that you may not notice at first glance: customized search box, awesome nested comments, author-comment-picture borders, scroll-to-top buttom, and nice drop-down menus!
