Redspectra is a WordPress theme that was designed by NET-TEC Expertene of Kamine and coded by Badeshorts of Esprit Markenmode. We found it through Wordpress Themes Free.
The WordPress Themes Free site utilizes the Wordpress The Sparkling Index (or the WTSI). The WTSI uses a formula to search the internet and find the most popular themes of the day. This site also has a feature that allows users to search through uploaded themes by a variety of criteria. You can even upload your own free theme if you would like to share it with others!
Redspectra is a great, basic and easy to look at theme. It is a two column, fixed width them with a basic red, white and black color scheme. The Header image is large and mostly read, with white and lighter red highlights. The nice part about this WordPress theme is that it keeps everything neatly organized. Each post is in its own container, and each part of the blogroll has its own container as well. This is great because it breaks up each nicely and keeps one post from running into the next. It also helps readers tell where one part of the sidebar ends and another begins.
The overall color scheme is nice and basic. Readers will easily be able to identify which parts of the site that they are supposed to pay attention to. Basic themes are nice, especially for beginning Bloggers. It helps make sure that visitors’ attention is focused on the content.
A lot of beginning Bloggers want themes that are complicated and involve lots of widgets and plug-ins. What viewers appreciate, however, are the simple themes like this one, which make sure that the content is what gets all of the attention. After all, you started blogging because you had something to say, right? A simple theme will guarantee that the content column gets the most attention.

Mac fans, get ready to have the blog of your dreams! Use the i3Theme and have your blog speak for you. i3Theme is a 3-column WordPress theme that is Mac-like. It is very sleek and cool — its sidebars are moveable, the theme’s look is very professional, and everything else in the theme looks perfect!
As I have mentioned, the sidebars are movable making the theme very interactive and fun for the visitors. The text is also very easy to read. These factors will surely make your blog a nice place on the web!
The theme has different versions. The center version for people who want the visitors to look at the content once the site has finished loading, the right version for people who are SEO conscious and want the content to be read by the search engines first, and the left version for people who simply want their sidebars to be on the left-hand side. There are also five color schemes: the classic, which is of blue color, grassy green, midnight blue, ruby red, and snazzy pink. Choose the one which suits your personality well.
The sidebars may contain wide skyscraper ads, skyscraper ads, and banners. This can certainly help in monetizing your blog, in case you plan in doing so.
The i3Theme is not only for Mac fans, it is also ideal for technology-related blogs as blue is the official color of tech.
Not only does the theme look amazingly great, the developer of the theme is very active in terms of giving support to the themes users. Should you find any problem or bug in the theme, just drop a comment on the developer’s blog and he’ll contact you as soon as he fixes the bug, or as soon as he can offer you any help.
Have you ever wanted a theme that can “adjust” to the time of the day? Well, Day Night theme is one of the most unique themes I’ve ever seen . You can change the appearance of your blog from a day-like design to a night-like design – without having to switch themes! Just click on a button on your blog and your design will transform from a day-theme to a night-theme (or vice versa).
Aside from that, the theme also has a number of unique features that other themes lack. Day Night theme has a very cool-looking sidebar that’s very easy on the eyes. The font sizes are just big enough to be read. The post area is spacious enough for you to add 468×60 (or even 728×90) banners in posts. If you need more space for ads, then I don’t think this theme will do since there’s a very little space in the sidebar. I think only one 125×125 banner can fit in a row, so if you’re into making money by blogging, then maybe you can find another theme for that purpose.
If you are just a blogger who wants to have fun writing posts, then I think this theme will be excellent for you. Plus, when you use this theme, your readers will surely appreciate it. Why? Because if they don’t like light-colored templates, they can easily switch to the night-theme which has a unique, nightsky design that will surely please their eyes. On the other hand, if they like lively and light templates, they can just click the button saying “Day Theme” and they’ll get what they want. Having the Day Night theme is like having two themes in one. Try it, you won’t be disappointed!

Newsflash is a rather sleek theme designed for people who want big font sizes. Well, not really big, but big enough to be read and bigger than the usual font size 12. This theme is just a simple one but I must say that being simple doesn’t mean being “boring”. This 2-column theme is packed with great features like a large enough sidebar to place your medium rectangle ads and video ads.
The header looks neat with the blog title written in bold to emphasize it. Just above the header is the navigation bar. The nav bar items look like tabs which add to the theme’s sleekness. To the right of the nav bar is the search field where visitors can enter their specific search terms and find posts on the blog. In my opinion, the search field should be on the top part of the page simply because people don’t scroll down to look for it! This is just one advantage of using the Newsflash theme.
The post area, for me, is the most interesting part of this theme. The title is big enough to be noticed by the readers so I think having a couple of ads in between posts wouldn’t hurt. The post text is also kinda large, which helps in giving the readers an enjoyable time in your blog. Instead of trying so hard to read the posts, they can just think about the article.
I recommend this theme to people who want to publish a personal blog yet want to earn some money through serving some advertisements. Because of the placement of the sidebar, I think this theme can give a rather high clickthrough rate (CTR) for your ads, which generates more revenue for you!

Firming Wordpress Theme
There are many themes out there which look so complicated that bloggers don’t want to use them anymore. is one of the themes that have a plain yet cool look. Its green white color scheme soothes the eyes and its simple style attracts the attention of the readers.
The header of Firming stands out; the blog’s title is clearly seen and the tagline can easily be read without zooming the page. Unlike other themes, Firming has a really neat navigation bar which can be found on top of the header to ensure that the visitors or readers will not have a difficult time in browsing your blog.
The very first thing that you will see in the sidebar is the search bar. In my opinion, this is a great thing because most people don’t scroll down to look for the search field. Well, I mean, who would? If you want to find something, you don’t search for the searching tool! Since the search field is up there, the people only have to type in the keywords and press enter. No more frustrating scrolling. Just below the search bar are the sidebar items already. You can see that the sidebar items’ titles are very readable and are placed on a nice (darker) green background which adds to the simple-yet-cool effect of the theme. The links are easy to read as well, and the color suits the theme very much. For those who want to monetize their blogs, I think you can put skyscrapers or 125×125 buttons in the sidebar area.
Going to the post area, I can say that it is very neat and tidy. The post titles and the posts have very good line spacing – you won’t get dizzy when reading the text, and that’s one thing I love about this theme. Some themes just “stuff” the text altogether making it hard to read. But with Firming, the letters and texts just have enough distance to make the reader feel comfortable.
This theme is highly recommended for people who want a simple, yet cool design.

If you’re looking for a WordPress theme that is sleek, neat, and ad-ready, then look no further. I’ve just found the theme of your dreams.
Soloss is a free WordPress theme which has a blue and white color combination with a really spacious sidebar which can certainly meet your needs. The theme also embodies the web 2.0 style, so if you’re one of the web 2.0 fans out there, you will certainly enjoy this theme.
Let’s go to the details. The very first thing that you can see in the sidebar is a medium-sized RSS button and a message which asks the visitors to subscribe to the feeds. This is a really nice feature since some themes just have the tiny orange button that can’t even be seen. There’s also a space for six 125×125 banners, and guess what, it’s placed above the fold thus you won’t have a hard time looking for advertisers. Just below the space for ads are the following.
Of course, you can always change these, but I must say that these make the theme look cool. Just below the three things is the sidebar itself. The sidebar is very sleek and eye-catching. The light-blue bullets are really nice as well.
In the post area, well… first, let me tell you that I find it really NICE. You can see that the font used matches the design. The post and link colors add to the web 2.0-ish look as well. Right below each post, you can see a little “promotion bar” or whatever you want to call it which can encourage the readers to e-mail the post, bookmark it, and to leave a comment.
I recommend this theme to people who are into the web 2.0 style and want to make some money by selling private ads. I can say that this is one of the best ad-ready themes out there.
