Blogging & Streaming
I finally feel that we’re making some headway into the backlog of themes that was created by all of the amazing designs we purchased via the WooContest last year. It seems as if there’s light at the end of the tunnel and I’m extremely excited to push out more of the themes that we’ve previewed recently.
So the next theme on the release list is Bloggingstream, which was designed by Firman Daus. The theme – which sports a sexy integration for a lifestream – is just as well suited to a personal blogger, as it would be for a “diligent” publisher. The design also contains 7 different advertising to enable you to make money from your website.
Style-wise, we’ve kept the default style as clean as possible, to allow you to truly make this theme your own, whilst we believe that the additional (light-on-dark) styles can also be used out-of-the-box to suit your own branding needs. You’ll see that we’ve put some effort into the typography, spacing & layout to keep the focus on the content.
So view the demo, read up on the specs of the theme and then give us a little feedback love…

I have to say guys, this is not my favorite theme. I am waiting for those “revolutionary” themes and not just general blogging themes. I don’t understand what sets this one apart from the other WooThemes that are available. I am an affiliate marketer and some type of “review” theme is what I am waiting for.

LOVE IT! Ordinarily I’m not a big fan of multi column news themes, but this is very engaging, sensible hierarchies, nice typography, looks very flexible.

I do like this new theme, but i hate the frames! This won’t do any good at our friends from Google….So for bussines purposes or a high page ranking this one won’t work….

@wouter – There aren’t any frames in this them
You have to view source on the demo directly

Looks great. It seems, though, the the dropdown menus don’t work properly on IE7. Instead of dropping down, they hit the top of the screen. Thought you should know… . Cheers.

@Richard – When it comes to IE, we generally prefer to be ignorant…
Hehe… Nah, thanks for reporting that; we’re already working on a fix!

Ok this might be the first theme I try out.I have always been a Frontpage guy.Is the header editable,meaning can I add a transparent logo there? Can you change the colors also? Thanks.
18 April 2009 at 4:43 am #
Yes you can change the logo, and there are several different styles which you can easily change in our options panel. You can customize the CSS files if you want further color changes.

I notice the headings scale. Are you using sifr, or is it just in the css and I have the font installed?
Liking the theme very much.
20 April 2009 at 12:48 am #
@Mark – For smaller headings, we are using Rockwell (not with sIFR), with an alternative of Georgia if Rockwell isn’t available.

@Adji Rockstar
Ahh ok, that will be it then. I have Rockwell installed.

Love this theme. Can we incorporate the “SocialProfiles” widget, used on Thick with Bloggingstream?
Looking forward to my first purchase from Woo today!

I would love to see how others customized this theme. Will this be included in the showcase section soon? Also, I’m not familiar with livestream. What other options would I have for that space?
