One of my great pleasures in seeing how my themes are being enjoyed by others. Today I would like to share two more web sites in my series of “showcase” posts.

The first web site is using a modified version of the Desk Mess Mirrored theme. This design has a completely new header section that enhances the theme character for this author’s content and direction. Here is a screen snippet from The DigiScrap Quality Guide:

The next web site was quite a pleasant surprise; not for its theme modification but simply for its content. I am quite honored to have my theme, Shades, chosen to display Kayla and Orion’s online wedding album. Thank you very much. Here is a snippet of their web site with their special day clearly marked.

Kayla and Orion - May 30, 2010

Please accept my best wishes for a prosperous and joyous future together.

Themes at Work and Play

Today we have a modified version of the Shades theme by the good folk at The Ninja Review. I have been to their site numerous times in the past but this time when I opened their blog I had to scroll to the bottom of the page before I recognized the Shades theme.

The Ninja Review was born out of one ninja’s frustration at being unable to find clear-headed, detailed reviews of places he wanted to go to. Add an undying passion for noodles and a lack of outstanding contracts, and you get The Ninja Review.

Another showcase site uses an older version of the Desk Mess Mirrored theme to host “The Official Quest Atlantis Blog“. An interesting concept dealing with education and online gaming.

QA combines strategies used in the commercial gaming environment with lessons from educational research on learning and motivation …

Shopping with Desk Mess Mirrored

When I opened this page I said to myself, wow! Then I looked around and I was truly impressed. Today’s showcase web site using a BuyNowShop theme can be found here, http://prezenty.auto-swiat.pl/ Unfortunately I do not read Polish(?) but the Google translate service let me know the title was “Gifts for Drivers”.

What was the wow factor with this showcase site? I think it can be best shown with a screenshot (below). I also suspect the site will change over time so I will be checking back on a regular basis.

This site is using the most current version of Desk Mess Mirrored (version 1.4.2 as of this posting) modified into a store front with Christmas gifts header images.

Discovering My Themes

I often click through my Blog Stats referrer links and marvel at the people, and the content of their blogs, that have chosen to use one of my themes. Today I would like to share a couple of web sites I particularly enjoyed.

真功夫: http://kungfu.hiiir.com/ – an interesting modified version of the Desk Mess Mirrored theme

Σnergiak: http://roxtaz.homeip.net/blog/ – beautiful, phenomenal, thought provoking collection of digital artistry

An honorable mention goes to fad常丽人: http://ce.yi-zhe.cn/ – a fashion blog and long time user of the Shades theme.

I am positive I will find and be able to share more wonderful and interesting sites, and equally certain I will be honored, amazed, awed … and inspired.

Thank You!
