A slice in the works?  What is this, a pizzeria, a bakery?  No, this is Net-Cake, and Slice is what I will be calling my WordPress themes, to keep with the whole cakey theme.  For all you non-existant loyal readers, I realize Net-Cake is off to a shaky start.  Although, I’m doing much better than many blogs do in their first month when it comes to post quality.  Anyway, In an effort to win to over those of you who like free stuff, I’ve began work on a FREE WordPress theme called ChalkDust.

I don’t want to give away too much before the final release, but I probably won’t be able to help it.

There are a few key features that ChalkDust will have that may be of interest to you -

  • WordPress 2.6, 2.7, 2.8+ Ready
  • Widgetized Footer
  • Fully customizable via organized theme options page
  • Support for all modern Webkit, Gecko, and Opera based browsers
  • Support for IE6, IE7, and IE8
  • Minimalistic, yet elegant design design
  • CSS3 fanciness
  • Sidebarless template with focus on the main content
  • Fully layered logo PSD
  • Custom color scheme
  • Custom Logo Uploader
  • Fully commented CSS
  • Web 2.0, TABLELESS design
  • Easily Editable, Fully Commented, CSS
  • Easily Editable, Fully Commented, Markup
  • Integrated Flickr Area
  • Integrated Twitter Feed
  • WordPress 2.7 Threaded Comments
  • Did I mention it’s FREE?

Well, those are just a few things that’ll make this slice special.
The theme is quickly nearing its release date.

I hope you enjoy this theme when it is released. Since it is my very first publicly released WordPress theme (what can I say? I’m selfish.), I expect the feedback will have a major effect on my future themes for you guys.

EDIT – I just realized the theme was available for prying eyes on net-cake.net. Well, not anymore :P

Subliminal messaging for the win.
