OneNote Theme Released

Hello! We’re always pretty excited when we get to release another free theme for you guys, so here it is – OneNote.

The theme features an elegant design that uses a dark (brown) content area against a light page background accented by a spiffy floral pattern reminiscent perhaps of libraries of old estate manors in the movies (or if you own one).

The theme features a two-column design and is widgetized for easy customization. It also uses two plugins (which we’ve included in the download file) WP-PageNavi and WP Categories and Posts to streamline the navigation and for you to modify the “In Other News” section in the content area. The theme also features quick links (via icons) to your social network pages (Twitter and Facebook) at the top of the page.

The theme is fully widgetized as all our themes are. The plugins needed are included in the theme files so there is no need to download them again. After installing WP-Page Navi deselect the option of using the default css style for this plugin.
