I have just changed my WordPress Theme to the Arras theme tonight. There is still a lot of work to do, but i think it is better than my old theme (twenty Ten).
The Arras Theme
Hope you like it, I know that I do. Feel free to drop me some feedback. You can see more about the Arras theme here. They also have a great forum if you need any help.
Why I have chosen the Arras theme
First of all, the Arras theme is free and I am only a hobby blogger so I don’t want to use any money on a theme right now. The other main reason is that I like the look very much. It is simple, but still elegant and that is exactly how I think a blog theme should be. If the navigation sucks, people will leave again no matter how cool the design is and that is not what I want. Finally it is great that there is a good forum where you can ask questions and get help if you have something you can’t figure out.
Update: 1. October 2016
I am not using The Arras theme anymore, that it is not updated much anymore and don’t have the best support for mobile devices. As you might know mobile support is something Google have started to use as a parameter for ranking blogs and websites. That is why you should consider using a Wordpress theme with mobile support. I am instead using the TechPress theme from flexithemes. It is free but also have a paid version if you want all the features.
It looks much more organized, nice pick.
