I’ve finally gotten around to releasing Slick Blue, which is my first free WordPress theme. Here is a screenshot:
Slick Blue is a 2-column widget-ready theme that features the following:
- 125×125 Banner Slots – Just replace the pictures and links with the appropriate code in the 125×125 banners file.
- SEO Friendly – I have gone through the code to make it as optimized for search engines as possible, using the appropriate headers, etc.
- Advertising Friendly – In addition to the banner slots mentioned above, you can easily plugin in PPC code (Google AdSense, BidVertiser or Yahoo Publishers Network) in the appropriate php file (named AdSenseLinks, AdSenseBanner, AdSenseBlocks).
- Widget-Ready – Theme is widget-ready.
- Comments/Trackbacks – I have separated the comments and trackbacks to help your readers follow comment conversations.
- Gravatars – Features built-in Gravatar support (no plugin required).
- Social Networking – Built-in social networking buttons below each post.
- Improved Footer – I’ve moved most of the archives to the footer. This is also a great place to put a MyBlogLog widget if you prefer to have one on your blog.
- Plugin Support – Is already setup to work with several WordPress plugins.
You should be able to find everything you need here, including a demo and a link to download. All feedback is welcome!

Theme is missing key components and cannot use.
These were the warnings:

It is a shame since it looked like a good template.
