Osmotic – A Preview

by Dave on January 7, 2010

in Blog

First up, Happy New Year everyone! I had a New Year’s Resolution list post planned, but seen as I’ve broken most of them already there doesn’t seem to be much point in publishing it.

Instead, take a look at Osmotic, my first Thesis skin for public release.

Osmotic is a clean, minimalist theme skin, based on the 960.gs grid system with the following features:

  • Single column or 2-column/3 column hybrid layout
  • Thesis drop down menus
  • WordPress search box in the navigation bar
  • Recent Posts widget with thumbnails and post excerpt
  • 3 column widgetized footer

Other than the fixed width structure of the theme, all default Thesis Options and Thesis Design Options can still be used, giving you a fair amount of flexibility to tweak colors, fonts, links and widget placement.

I’ve still got a couple of bugs to iron out, which knowing my current schedule will take at least another week. So expect this skin to be available towards the end of the month.

If you think you may be interested in using Osmotic on your Thesis blog, please let me know and I’ll put you on the ‘list of people to harass‘ as soon as it gets released.

If you’ve got any suggestions/comments/questions/insults, please leave them below. Thanks.

About Dave

Hello. I'm Dave, and I built the Thesis skin you're looking at right now. Why? Because along with PSD to Thesis services, that's what I do. I'm also a lousy poker player. Follow me on Twitter if you're feeling brave, or bored.
