Oh, and it’s one of the 100 Free High-Quality WordPress Themes: 2010 Edition (see category Starter And Blank WordPress Themes). Yes, it’s a pleasure to know that others appreciate your work.

This time I’m not going just to describe all product features but I’ll tell you how to create your own unique theme…

First things first, I’ll advise you to determine the website’s major subject and color palette. I chose a neutral major subject: picturesque high mountains.
The next step is the clip art search. We’ll use royalty-free sources as we limit our budget to $0.00. I prefer Flickr because it provides search within CC license photos.

Among all the variety I picked up the following picture (brushed it a little, divided in half but didn’t bother too much).

After dividing I downloaded it to the theme.

For a palette creation you may use one of the following sites (I took the photo above as a palette basis):

Color Palette
ColorHunter

I’ve got the next one:

Add it to the theme settings:

Make some magic moves in CSS code:

/* increase font in the header and move it down a little*/
#name {
    margin-top:40px !important;
    font-size:112px !important;
    text-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #777;
}
#description {
    font-size:24px !important;
    font-weight:900;
    text-indent:24px;
}
/* add to navigation links a couple of lines */
.navigation div {
    margin:0 0 8px;
}
.navigation div a {
    height:24px;
}
.navigation .alignright a {
    border-left: 4px solid #147dbe;
    margin:0 16px 0 0;
    padding-left:8px;
}
.navigation .alignleft a {
    border-right: 4px solid #147dbe;
    margin:0 0 0 16px;
    padding-right:8px;
}
/* change the font in the footer for text not get lost on the color background */
#footer .widget h3,
#footer .widget a {
    color:#fff;
    font-weight:900;
    text-shadow: 0px 0px 1px #333;
}

Apply the changes,  and after a successful and satisfying work, it’s better to save it using your name.

That’s all. You’ve got your own unique theme.
