As this year draws to a close, your friends here at Sillyness would like to give you a couple of gifts.
When I moved from my previous design ‘Fresh and Clean’ I had decided to package it up as best I could and release it as a free theme for WordPress. Today that dream becomes a reality.
Also, as many of you know, I had been working on a new theme for Sillyness code named ‘Believe’. As I have stated elsewhere I came to realize that I have shifted artistically back to the world of paint and charcoal; I gave up on my new design, and you guessed it, decided to package what I had up and release it as well.
One quick note, as I have said before I am now pouring all my active development energy into the WordPress Mod K2. I haven’t changed my mind. These two downloads satisfy two things:
So here you go my friends, So Fresh, Exciting! 1.0 (kool) and Believe 1.0 (stevie) for your use and abuse. One thing to note: These are the initial releases of these themes, and as such there might be some lingering issues. Everything works on my end, but let me know of any problems you run into over in my Forums.
And yes, both of these themes have my gravatar enabled ‘Recent Commenters’ code bundled in functions.php.
Enjoy and have safe, but fun, New Year’s Eve celebrations! Oh and there might be one more ‘gift’ by the time the new year rolls around, I am not quite sure. Stay Tuned.
absolutely love the So Fresh theme. Are you planning on making a version that has page tabs like K2? Or am I missing something that I can do myself?
Thanks so much for your hard work.
mighty generous of ya Chris, ur a scholar and a gentleman!
this will also be a good chance for others to see what good coding looks like :)
Happy New Years bro
I agree, that was very kind of you, Chris! Wonderful stuff!
Very nice!
Thanks for the themes. Will be useful to many. And happy new year to you, Heather and Jakob from us :D
Regards
Happy New Year buddy. Damn man giving up on Believe. That’s crazy :). I really want to download it and test it but I’ve not upgraded any of my blogs to WP 2.0 does anyone have a demo I can have a look at (what can I say I’m a curious chappy :) ). From the screenshot I really really like what you’ve done. Keeps the CJD feel to it and everything. Ok now it’s time for you to start getting those posts on the artwork coming :).
I like “So Fresh, So Clean”, great theme.
But may I ask you what happend with your Gravatar-Plugin, where you could see how often a user commented on entries? I really liked that idea!
i’m getting an error using “So Fresh, Exciting!”

Thanks so much for these wonderful gifts!
And to you, my friend, happy 2006!
Beautiful stuff! I’m only returning from vacation here, and you’ve been giving one gift after the other!
Have a fantastic new year, and I hope you had a great Christmas!
Best thoughts for 2006 from Denmark!
I downloaded So Fresh and have spent the last few days customizing it and hacking it to meet my needs. Thank you for the wonderful base from which to work.
Ok , I getting error when I trying to using Believe theme, :
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘ryan’ AND comment_approved = ‘1’ AND comment_type = ”’ at line]
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_author = ”ryan’ AND comment_approved = ‘1’ AND comment_type = ”
any solution?
Hey, Chris, Happy New Year!
I love that new photo of you at the top of the site. Was that made out at ApachCon by the same photo-artist that did Dr. Bacchus’ picutres? It’s very cool. Do you have the full set of photos of you posted anywhere? I’d love to see them.
Excellent stuff Chris. Your work is very much appreciated.
Awesome work Mr Davis !
Awesome. This theme has always kicked ass.
My reader(!) likes this theme, thanks so much for sharing Chris.
The theme rocks! Thanks a lot for all the hard work and a cool site! ;)
So Fresh, Exciting! is 2kool4words. :-p
Thanks Chris!
Very nice work … I may be trying “So Fresh” out this weekend.
I like the fresh one! :))
I’m really feelin’ your Sillyness Spelled Wrong Intentionally blog template — with red background.
I’m new at this, so mucho pardons, if I sound dense and my questions — -inane. Luckily — -my 24yr.old. did all his homework and blogs/html/php etc., and acquired his Ph.d in the genre. ;)
Yet he’s a doberman in spirit (a good thing though) and sometimes intolerant with “my incredibly right brain thinking”.
This is one of those days I’m in the forest alone…so be my crib note and hook a 44yr.old up. ;)
I’m looking for a unique template for my online newsmagazine and yours seems to fit the visual groove I’m seeking.
A few questions:
Is this template compatible with WordPress?
At the homepage first post — -how much space, lines does it offer and how large of a picture will it allow?
Can I put a picture in the blog title area?
In the Daily Asides area — -can pictures be put there and can it be relabled?
Does the Flickr Album come in the style sheet?
Is there any place on the home page in which I can create a Category List — -or can I make the “Previously” section into this?
THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE and could you respond at your earliest convenience?

Hi Chris,
I like the so fresh theme very much, and partly translated it into Hungarian. All my readers like it too. Thank you for it!
Hey Chris,
I’m running So Fresh, Exciting! now on my blog and I’m loving it. The minimal simplistic look is something I really enjoy. Thanks again for sharing them.
I just installed this theme today on my blog… and I’m lovin’ it!
I tweaked it just a ‘little’ and I love the outcome.
So easy to work with.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Chris ! I loved So Fresh, So Clean ! Great theme !
I’m translating it to Portuguese !
Hej, Thanks so much for your great work.
i downloaded “so fresh” but there is some kind of issue with the ajax comments… they don’t seem to work consistently…
check out 3thehardway.ca and try and leave a comment… thanks a lot for the help, i’ve tried a million things to fix it. maybe not a million, but a lot….
Hey Sean,
That sounds strange, I will try to look into and let you know what I find out.
Thanks a lot…
if it’s any help… i have it installed here,
seanmcdonald.ca/devblog/
and in use at 3thehardway.ca
and the commenting is quirky on both… really is strange.
When I try to use the comment form on your main site, I am seeing a prototype error having to do with your lightbox implementation:
../wp-lightbox2/js/prototype.js.php :: anonymous :: line 136" data: no]
Try deactivating that plugin, and trying the commenting.
Curious… how do you put those photos on the comments?
Hi Chris, thanks for the quality themes!
Today, I have Fresh installed on my blog. I took a look of the style.css file, does it contain a lot of class definitions that are only relevant to your blog?
Hej Chris, thanks so much for this great work. i think i change my wp-theme, yours is better ;-)
greetings from raining germany.
Two totally different and yet cool themes, very nice…! I especially like the simplicity of ‘So Fresh’ very much, although it seems a bit limited in its currents state…!? Meaning that there seems to be no built-in support for certain plugins or widgets respectively…or did I miss something here…?
Is there any development in that direction at all…?! I wouldn’t want to go through the hassle of translating the theme to German, just to find out that’s it has been closed down…!? ;)
Great work anyway…!
Woah, I’ve always loved your “So Fresh” theme. Thanks for sharing!
