Barthelme

A fluid, two-column layout for WordPress 2.0+. It’s a light theme, perfect for customizing, though with all its integrated features, you might not have to:

  • Theme options menu within the WordPress admin menu, featuring
    • control over fonts and font sizes
    • ability to alter layout and text alignment
  • Intelligent browser titles (e.g., “Barthelme « plaintxt.org”)
  • Widgets friendly, ready to use
  • Hack- and error-free CSS
  • Standards compliant XHTML 1.0 Strict validation

Though it may sound ridiculous, this theme was designed while thikning about Donald Barthelme’s short story “Margins” (from his 60 Stories collection).
