Shade Pro

This category-as-super-nav based theme from ThemeSpinner has a three-column HP layout and a two-column article layout.  Design features of note include a robust footer (most recent, most popular, recent comments), as well as some nice touches put to pages that are normally afterthoughts. Article level pages feature the author (with gravatar), comments and page views [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Visualization

This minimalist theme takes a pyramid approach to content display — one feature story/large image, beneath that three smaller features (with smaller images), then as the base, five thumbnail features bolstered by a big footer. The main nav menu is a bit different than many themes in that it incorporates both pages and categories (sub [...]

Wordpress Magazine

Free Wordpress theme with page-based navigation (dropdown menus) with a category-list in the right-hand sidebar. The HP is 3-column while article pages are 2-column. With built-in advertising. Live Demo | More Info

Mimbo

One of the first magazine-style Wordpress themes that I came across, and judging from the comments, hugely popular. Maybe because it’s free, or maybe because it’s a great starting off point. Those of you looking for pre-built top-menu category-based navigation, (admittedly, a very specific thing), will have to look elsewhere. Mimbo’s top navigation menu is [...]

Revolution News

The Revolution Wordpress Theme series (comes in different flavors, Revolution Magazine, Revolution Tech, Revolutions Sports, etc) is a nice jumping off point for anyone interested in content-rich sites. 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 [...]

Mimbo Pro

What I like about this paid theme is the great job it does showcasing a lot of content very effectively. The HP manages to squeeze in 13+ article options (1 main well, 5 recent stories, 4 secondary stories with image (in slider), and then 3 more articles (with 3 links each!), yet maintains a clean [...]
