You may have probably noticed that there is a new page – Surreal. Yup, it is a new theme of mine, with a colorful background, some blue accent, and [insert advertisements here]. Also, a new version of Dark Autumn has also been released. Compared to the last version, we have added a colorpicker this time for users to choose their own colors.

Both of these themes are now in the WP Themes Directory. How cool is that, you ask? Well, in WP 2.8, you can now search for “surreal” or “dark autumn” and install it directly from your admin panel. No FTP required.

Enjoy these themes, and check back regularly for more cool updates!
