I’m happy to present to you, “Motion,” a dashing new theme inspired by movement and film. Bursting with style and options, Motion is a clean, colorful, and charismatic new theme.
Motion, a colorful and clean theme.
Motion combines color and clean lines to give your content character without hindering consumption. Aside from great design, the theme features some pretty interesting features. The menu shows both categories and pages, in separate locations, allowing your visitors to choose how they’d like to navigate your site.
Pages and Categories
There is also a really nice widget area that acts a little bit different than most other widget areas. It’s the “header” widget area – you can use it for intro text, a link to your RSS feed, or anything you want your users to see right away.
Intro Text / Header Widget Area
Last, but definitely not least, is the footer. It’s big, clean, and widgetized. By default you have Links, Pages, and Archives – but it’s all up to you, customize the footer however you’d like.

Full of character yet minimal, we bring you the wonderful “Steira,” bursting at the seams with detail and functionality.
Steira in all its glory!
Recent Comments Widget for Steira
The sidebar is large in this theme giving you a lot of room to play.
Any widget will do, but the custom widgets are quite convenient and stylish. The “Recent Comments” widget is especially nice. It shows a dedication to your content while at the same time keeping the visual intensity that the rest of the theme boasts.
The “New” post.
There are a lot of subtle details in this theme. Most notably, your newest post shows up with a nice “New” label, giving your users a heads up.
If you’re wondering why you haven’t seen Steira before, it’s because you haven’t. It was designed by Made by Elephant for WordPress users.
The theme will soon be available in the Theme Repository over at WordPress.org and we’re extremely happy to be sharing it with you today.

Last week Mozilla released Firefox 3.6, the latest and greatest version of their open source Web browser. To mark the occasion, we worked with designer Chad Pugh to create a couple of brand new WordPress Personas for Firefox. Personas are like skins for your browser, and these designs are a great way to show off your WordPress colors.
The “Vintage Press” Persona is inspired by the style of the great old-time printing presses. Get it here.
And the “Inkwell” Persona uses splashes of color to decorate a well-used piece of paper. Add it to your Firefox here.
