Astral: For That Snazzy Online Newspaper Look

A brand new WordPress theme has now been made available: Astral. The Astral theme is a slick online newspaper-esque design (or “ezine”) that was primarily inspired by popular UK news portals such as the Guardian and Times Online.

This theme sports three columns and comes in a very attractive lime flavor. I made sure that the theme, while remaining very professional looking, would still be as flexible and customizable as possible for the users. The third and furthest most-right column is especially useful for those of you whom might be looking to monetize your blog and allow sponsors to purchase 125×125 advertising blocks on your blog. There is also an additional space next to the header graphic that allows you to take advantage of “premium sponsors”, if you so wish.

Please be sure to take a quick peak at the new Astral theme and leave a comment to let me know what you think.
