Blue21: My first Wordpress theme
Blue21 is a simple and clean theme for Wordpress that I have designed.
It has a pleasing color scheme, nice gradients and a familiar look if you’ve been working with the Wordpress Default Theme, since it’s based on it. It’s also Ad-ready, because the middle column has been reserved for a skyscraper banner, but you can get rid of it if you wish and put more content, or go the other way and put more ads.
While I am neither a designer nor a theme expert, I’ve made some decent works like with my blog and some other Web projects I have, so I finally decided to release this theme.
This theme is based on a three columns modified version of Kubrick by Liew Cheon Fong, and just like the original one, it is licensed under the GPL 2.0 License.

thanks for theme…
Hi! Great theme, it looks very clean and professional. I think it needs only some more small modifications, like some gradients, as right side looks a little bit empty.
Take care!
This is a great looking theme. Clean, simple and elegant. I think I’ll update a few of my environmental sites with this design to give them a fresh start :)
Thanks!
clean and simple!
unique header too and thanks for sharing..
well done!
Thanks!
Great first effort, wish I had the talent.
If this really is your first WP theme, it’s quite impressive!
Keep up your good work ; )
Thanks everyone for the kind words! I’ll keep the suggestions in mind for a next revision of this theme.
Thanks very much!!!
Hi there… Thank you for dropping by :D
I really like this theme. I’m looking forward for your next release ;)
Yes, you could link to my page for the widgetized version or host it here. You’re the creator of the theme anyway :)
Thank you for the theme :D
Great theme!
Great WP theme! Thanks you for widget version.
FYI - your blue21 header.php does not include the wp_head() call, which causes the XML-RPC feature of Remote Publishing not to work. You may want to investigate this and put it in the header.
@Jason: Thanks for the info. I’ll fix it as soon as I can.
