Wordpress Themes Directories

admin — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 16:16:56 +0000

Here are some of the popular and not so popular Wordpress themes directories with short reviews.

http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/ : The official Wordpress.org themes section. Features search by number of columns, primary colour of the theme, theme topic, fixed or flexible width and some of the features like custom-colours, theme options, translation ready, buddypress and so on. Features most of the themes but misses out on some of the great free themes offered by commercial Wordpress theme developers. No information about the version of Wordpress the theme is developed for.

http://topwpthemes.com/ : Features themes by category, number of columns, left or right sidebar and if widget ready or not. No search option. Great collection of themes.

http://wordpressthemesbase.com/ : Features themes by categories and features. Offers search feature and also top downloaded, rated and viewed.

http://www.themes2wp.com/ : Free and Premium themes. Found some very neat themes on this site. Check it out.

http://www.wpthemes360.com/ : Just thumbnails of many many themes. No search or any other feature.

and more other directories coming soon…

Google Chrome introduces browser extensions

Google Chrome

What is a great browser ? One that loads up quickly OR one that makes your browsing experience speedier than the other browsers? OR is the add-ons or the extensions which might include functional add ons or themes.

I would say that a major selling point of Firefox initially was its support for extensions which let you do all kinds of goody functional stuff with either the websites, bookmarks, web development functionality or other stuff.

And now Google Chrome is onto the bandwagon announcing that Chrome will support extensions, and which can be downloaded from https://chrome.google.com/extensions/

You would have to however, download the latest beta version of Chrome for running these extensions.

At the time of writing this article, these are the popular extensions,
