Revolution Pro Media

The Revolution Series does what any theme claiming to be a magazine-style theme should do, and then some. Revolution Pro Media adds more multimedia to the mix than some of the other Revolution variations, such as Revolution Magazine or Revolution News. Flickr images and video is integrated prominently. A unique feature of this theme is [...]

Monochrome Pro

By the same maker as minimalist Visualization and the Gridline series, Monochrome is a visually arresting theme that places a lot of emphasis on images. So if your photos are not as great as the ones featured on the site, then you may way to think again. Monochrome has a lot of solid magazine-style features, [...]

Magazine News Theme

This paid theme’s primary magazine feature is a featured articles capability — articles categorized under “featured” occupy the main well. While that’s a neat way to deal with the issue of which stories get prominent/more real estate, the downside of this approach is that articles are bucketed under one category instead of perhaps the categories [...]

Pressbox

The creators call this theme a “premium blog” and not “premium magazine” theme, but we’re including it here anyway as a robust blog or gallery/photo-heavy theme. The focus on typeface (Helvetica / Georgia / Verdana / Courier used) and reliance on images is the main draw with this very clean and modern looking theme. It’s [...]

News by Quommunication

Gorgeous and clean Wordpress theme with a two tiered-navigation menu — page-based and category-based. The majority of the homepage is taken up by the featured story (appears to be the latest story). Nice features include a slick “most popular” sidebar with popular, comments, latest and tags. Another unique feature is the robust footer which manages [...]

Cornerstone

I think I’d put this theme in more of the robust blog camp, in that it appears to be page-based-navigation (correct me if I’m wrong). The theme layout is perhaps more text-heavy than others. Unique design elements include the big footer, the “quote box” (upper left hand corner) as well as the HP latest entry [...]

Futurosity Magazine

Beautiful and unusual Wordpress theme with a strong focus on whitespace and typeface. I see a literary magazine site or designy folk using this to showcase a portfolio. Or maybe a dictionary. The design is really what’s unique about this one; take for example the category landing page, which through just four elements — red [...]

Revolution Magazine

I’ll repeat a bit of what I wrote in the Revolution News page — standard mag-style features include two-tiered top-nav: page-based for the first tier and category-based for the 2nd tier (with subcategory drop downs). Touches which distinguish this theme from others include nice balance on the HP and focus on images. Another nice thing [...]

Shifter Theme

Less a fixed theme and more a theme system, Shifter allows you to change your blog width, sidebar width and configuration. It comes prepacked with 15 skins and three HP styles — “Blog”, “Blog-Portal” and “Portal”. More Info
