17 Quality Wordpress Themes for Free

For the whole month am in search of all the good WordPress themes for my visitors. As a part of that last week I presented the collection 20 Free Corporate WordPress Themes and got huge (1400 hit for the post first day itself) response from all my visitors. It’s time for another good collection here.

Danno presented this collection on his blog Elitefreelancing. The collection contains themes for Blogs, magazines and for professional sites also. Every theme contains brief description about the blog, download and preview details. All downloads will be redirected to authors site and subject to their copyrights.

Sharpfolio by Ed Harrison over at Web Revolutionary made it on our list for being a simple and elegant solution to those needing a theme that will primarily act as a portfolio.  Minimalist styling and neutral colors means you can keep the emphasis off the theme and where it should be: on your work.  Nice one Ed.

If not the prettiest theme around, it certainly comes packed with a ton of customization options.  The features and the fact that it comes ready in 30 plus languages won Mandigo a spot on our list.

Based on the popular Coda website, this theme lets you get a Wordpress powered site that feels anything but standard. Be sure to try out the left and right arrows to slide through the body content. An original theme based on an original design.

Aspire by Info Creek

The Aspire theme by Info Creek feels like you walked into the sheriff’s office at sunset.  A three column layout with aged and antique styling, this one would be a good contender for those requiring some rustic charm.

Box Tube by Dezzain

Glossy and sleek is what Box Tube gets you. This modern theme is widget ready both in the sidebar and footer. A handful of plugins to make it all work as shown but shouldn’t be a problem for anyone with more than a few minutes experience with Wordpress.

Yoghourt by Web Kreation

Mmm Yogourt!? This high contrast theme has everything you’d expect in a basic yet well designed Wordpress theme.

Liquorice Allsorts by Monomo

Visually, it’s like nothing else.  Technically, the makers of Liquorice Allsorts have gone to lengths in order to keep the CSS class and ID names exactly the same as found in the default Wordpress theme, Kubrick. Arty and bold; Liquorice Allsorts is a great little theme for the right property.

Mini-WP by Frozr

It’s no surprise this theme has done the rounds since it’s release.  A pixel perfect theme exhibiting tactile goodness on every level. Note: An update has been provided in order to get the file size down of this image heavy theme. Worth checking out if an organic look and feel is what you need.
