The Natural Theme 2

The Natural Theme has received a heavy dose of awesomeness to the design, functionality and theme features. Check out the updated demo here. Rather than having 3 separate color variations as in previous versions of the theme, we have condensed the variations in to one super theme — containing background and color choices within the new Options Framework. In addition, the design has been perfected, a new featured post section has been added to the homepage, the content slider has been updated and much more. The Natural Theme is an excellent solution for businesses working in or around the environment. The theme also makes a great blog, portfolio or storefront. Check out some additional features included with the latest update:

The New Showcase and Verbage Themes!

The Showcase Theme

We’ve changed our Simple Portfolio Theme to the Showcase Theme, but the name isn’t the only thing we changed. While the theme maintains a similar layout and design as previous versions, we cleaned up the appearance, code, added a new featured content slider, Twitter feed, numbered pagination and the Options Framework. The logo and sidebar now remain fixed to top left, while the rest of the content scrolls — making the navigation always available for a clean user experience.

Don’t take my word for it, check out the updated theme demo.

The Verbage Theme v2

We’re very excited to announce the latest update for the Verbage Theme. Not only because of the awesome new design, but some amazing new features that make this update particularly sweet. The first is the mobile media query. View the theme demo on your iPhone or iPad for a different, but equally awesome experience. We have added media queries to the theme so that the design will change to a more mobile friendly layout when viewed on a mobile device.

Next, the Verbage Theme now contains a considerable amount of customization options — including the ability to change the links and highlight colors, as well as the option to change the header background color in addition to the full site background. There are multiple display options, so you can choose to hide or display the various sections on the home page.

If that wasn’t enough, the updated theme now boasts a new featured content fader, numbered pagination, featured banner images for pages, video capabilities, the Options Framework and much more.

The Bold Theme 3

The Bold Theme is the latest of our themes to receive a major update to the design, functionality and features. Check out the updated demo here. Rather than retire the theme, we have breathed new life in to it. Previously, the Bold Theme couldn’t decide what kind of theme it wanted to be. It was more of a general purpose theme. With the latest update, we have redefined the Bold Theme as a video theme. The large content slider is now ideal for showcasing HD video, and the theme is a perfect solution for vloggers, animators and videographers. In addition to redefining the theme’s purpose, we have added several other new features:

The New Studio Theme

We’re excited to announce the release of a new theme, the Studio Theme. You can view the demo here. Our latest addition to the theme collection was created to not have the initial appearance of a WordPress theme. As a designer, the only issue I have with WordPress themes is that most of them are instantly identifiable as a WordPress theme. Whether it’s an obvious blog layout, overwhelming amounts of content, a long horizontally scrolling home page or what I have dubbed “layer cake” design, most WordPress themes have a distinct appearance that is saturating the internet. The Studio Theme provides something different.

A Year Of Organic Themes

Organic Themes is proud to announce our one year anniversary! In celebration of this milestone, we have redesigned our main website and brand. Needless to say, it’s been an extremely exciting year. We can’t thank our amazing customers enough for the success of our past year.

We designed our new site purposefully with a very clean approach. It was created to provide a better user experience, and to be navigated more easily than our previous site. We developed several custom post types to manage content more efficiently within the site — hopefully making it even easier to update with new content and themes. Several minor bells and whistles have been added to the design and development to really give it a polished feel. In addition, we have updated our showcase with several more examples of people using our themes!
