Lots of New Twenty Ten Child Themes!
by Zeaks 9 Comments
It’s been a while since I posted any new Twenty ten Child Themes on this site. I’ve been bookmarking them as I find them and one reader mentioned his own child theme in a comment so I thought I should get to work and post them. First we have a Tumblr style child theme called Salju. I’ve played around with this theme and it’s really cool how it works. I’ve seen themes that require the use of woothemes tumblr plugin, this theme creates posts the same way, but without the use of a plugin. It has a nice background image and a snow effect built in, by WPCharity.com You can download it from their site Here – Salju Theme.

I do have Arron Jorbins Thirty Ten theme added. In fact I think it was the first child theme added and his site was where I learned about Twenty ten child themes. I didn't notice Dirty ten and Thirty ten were different themes.
I will add it to the list. If you discover any others feel free to post the link. I'm trying to keep the list as updated as I can.
Thanks again
Thank you…I looking for simple twenty child theme
Twenty-ten has actually become one of my favorite themes. I’m very happy they changed it to the default from that “Kubrick”, which let’s face it, was getting real old. Twenty-Ten has it all, simplicity, good options easy set-up, and a nice clean header area that you can quickly change to your liking.
These child themes you’re showing just make the theme all that much better.
Thanks alot for the links, this has opened way for us to view every child’s theme, rather than it could be just words alone, they are all interesting.
