Grunge Style
Latest Version: 3.00 Added on: 2015/05/26 I have always wanted to try something new in my theme development. This time, I bring to you a grunge design.

Read MoreDoggy Love
Latest Version: 1.00 Added on: 2015/05/30 Dogs are man’s best friend. I used to have a Chow Chow (a breed of dog that was first developed in Mongolia) 15 years ago. A dense double coat and thick fur around the neck made it look like a lion. Though looked fierce, she was extremely obedient to me. Unfortunately, she was killed in an accident and was the last dog I rear 🙁 This theme is a tribute to my Chow Chow named Toffy. Click on the “Free Download” link above to get the theme now!

Read MoreSeagull
Latest Version: 1.00 Added on: 2015/04/27 I like freedom and this theme to some extent demonstrates this trait of mine. Why? Because seagull is a symbol of freedom and green signifies nature. There are 3 animated birds flying around the header image. Also, the location of each post and article will be placed above “the sky and the seagull” to enhance the concept of freedom. See live demo here. I haven’t got any animal related theme until this one. In May, I am going to release my second animal theme for dog’s lovers.
