Get Sophisticated

02. Dec, 2009 by Adii Rockstar in New Themes

Sometimes it happens that we tend to drag our feet a little with a theme once we have previewed it; and that is exactly what happened with SophisticatedFolio (unfortunately, because it is a great theme!).

SophisticatedFolio was designed by Tony Geer and when we approached him about a collaboration, we wanted him to create something that was similar in style & function to his own, awesome portfolio. The result is a – erm – sophisticated-looking portfolio design, which includes more than enough “space” for your blog posts & information pages.

We think SophisticatedFolio makes another great addition to our range of portfolio themes and hope that you’ll enjoy the 3rd last release of 2009 (yep – there’s only two more themes coming after this one). Read up on the theme’s features or check out the demo right away.

We show you teasers (Part 2)

22. Jul, 2009 by Adii Rockstar in Theme Concepts

A while back we posted the first part to this post, where we kinda just got you curious about the themes that we were planning to release soon. Since then we’ve worked on quite a few other things, but these designs have now been finalized (and some of them have even gone into development). So now is the time to actually show you what why we believe that some of our upcoming themes will blow your mind.

Note… Whilst these themes’ designs have been finalized and some of them has been coded, there’s no clear ETA on any of their release dates. So it’s not gonna help if you ask us in the comments. All of these themes will however be pushed out in the next 3 months; so even though we’re being vague, you won’t have to wait too long…

Collaborating with the Best of the Best

08. Jul, 2009 by Adii Rockstar in WooThemes News

I recently wrote a post over at WooCamp titled “5 Reasons to collaborate”, which suggests that collaborating with the absolute best-of-the-best designers has contributed massively to what we do here. Many of our themes (in fact, exactly 18 out of the current 36) were designed by others; so when we talk about collaborating, we’re pretty serious about it!

Now, collaboration aside, we wanted to publish a post, where we could give ourselves a few warm fuzzies, along with a little (innocent) ego-stroking. We contacted some of the designers that we’ve worked with in the past and asked them one simple question: What do they think about their collaboration with WooThemes?

Here’s what they said…

We show you teasers (Part 1)

23. Jun, 2009 by Adii Rockstar in Theme Concepts

Okay, so we probably wouldn’t be able to call ourselves WooThemes if we didn’t continuously get you all excited about future theme releases, by releasing little teasers of upcoming themes. And even though we know we just make your wait so much more painful (because we all want those awesome designs to be delivered right-away), we know you love these posts!

So the last time we posted some teasers, was way back in March this year (here & here) and from those lists we still have Feature Pitch & “Big Easy” (from Dan Rubin) in the backlog. Feature Pitch will be released next week and then Big Easy, along with Groovy Photo & Blog (from last year’s WooContest) have been scheduled for release next month. (Don’t hold us to that, because we’re a fickle bunch hehe…)

For this post then, we’ve got 4 amazing new theme concepts that we’re working on. You’ll see that we’re only showing you very small teasers in Part 1, but as soon as all 4 concepts are completed, we’ll be publishing more in-depth teasers of the upcoming themes. So here we go (in alphabetical order)…
