Five of our favorite new themes.

The WordPress.com team is always working on new design ideas to bring your website to life. Check out the latest themes in our library, including great options for minimalist bloggers, retailers, and creatives of all stripes.
Alter is a lean theme for bloggers that gets directly to the point, showing text-only posts right above the fold ornamented by a single image. The bold default color scheme plays against the minimalist content design for a fun and surprising aesthetic. And, of course, you can always change those default styles if pink and purple aren’t your thing.

Trying out a new theme was a disaster for me. I was using Baskerville 2. Swapped it for syntax. It was a bad choice. Instructions for using revision history to restore the original theme were indecipherable and ineffective. When I finally found Baskerville listed on the my themes panel and swapped it back, my website was scrambled. I still haven’t recovered after hours of work.

Thank you for the offer. I’m going to take a little time to sit down and try to understand the framework before I ask any questions. More later.

I’m looking at “Boxed Bio“ and thinking about my current site- “Let’s see, stack 3-2-3 columns, different widths and bg’s… hmmm. -I think the lessons are kicking in! 🙂
