2 wordpress magazine templates
I know most of you look for great wordpress templates. There are hundreds if not thousands of wordpress templates around., but most of them suck! From time to time we see a new quality release for free, but rarely we see a release of a magazine style template.
I personally want this kind of template for this blog, but all the good ones are expensive maybe one day ill buy), but today i found 3 free wordpress magazine templates.
Let me tell you right now that the first two look great, but they fail terribly on my blog. If you visited my blog in the last minutes you would noticed that i have been “playing” with templates.
1- The morning after This is a great looking theme but, to be compatible with wordpress 2.3 you need to edit a few lines. But the worst of it, is that it is not widget compatible!!! and basically it’s only a 2 column theme…

2- Mimbo Magazine This theme is also great looking! but again i can only write about the negative aspects. The letter is to small, but the main problems are that in order for it to work properly you will need to do a lot of editing!
The first time you view the template you will see your old posts showing. you need to edit in code what you want to show on front page, and even that you will see that not all options are good for you….
This is my own opinion. These are great looking themes that have in my point of view lots of problems to be solved. Im sure many of you will do a great work with these themes.

I have used Darren’s theme and it does need some customization but if it is a fresh installation then it is recommended. I can imagine it to be difficult to use if one was changing the theme in an existing blog.
I have implemented it in a travel site (undergoing construction) and its been quite good so far, check out Rustic Sikkim
i agree with you. For a fresh install this theme is good, otherwise you will need to have a good load of patient.
your site looks very nice with mimbo theme. congrats for your work!
I can see you’re using Structure theme from JT. But i prefer Visionary as it was easy to handle rather than Structure. Nonetheless, both of them suits most of the bloggers need.
Seriously, i hate Morning After. I’ve used it before and i can say it’s one of the HELL journey to tweak the code. So i changed it..
MIMBO which i should call BIMBO, where most of the readers preferred BIG fonts of contents, but Darren ruined it. I do have it in my locker, waiting to be deleted.
See you again, mate..!

I download Morning after, and i still have it on the server, but as soon as i was aware of the amount of edits it was necessary to do i gave up. Seriously, it is a theme for guys with lots of free time or for a completly new blog.
I have seen a few blogs with mimbo, and some corrected the font size, which is not that difficult to change, but the overall usability of the theme in those blogs isn’t good… The author is doing a pro version if im not mistaken, it looks good so far.
Well, yes he did created a new Mimbo theme where we need to purchase, but one of my best friend is struggling to get the money back, i guess the theme doesn’t suit him well..
