An innovative open source blogging platform developed with ASP.NET 2.0.

BlogEngine.NET Themes

clock July 23, 2007 20:55 by author Team

With the 1.1 release, we doubled the number of themes that come "out of the box" with BlogEngine.NET.  Most of these new themes came from the community and we know that there are a lot more themes that people have made available on their own sites.

We would really like to collect information on themes that people have made available and put screenshots and links to these themes on this site.  We think this site would make an ideal place for a master themes catalog and would make finding available themes easy for BlogEngine.NET users.

If you are interested in sharing your custom theme, please let us know in the comments.  Someone from the team will get back to you soon and we'll work on getting your theme listed on this site.  In the future, we hope to make listing and sharing themes an easier process for everyone, but we will start with comments and followup emails.

Hopefully, we'll have a few linked up by the end of the week!

This is for sharing of themes as in "Download this custom theme" more so than "Here's how people are using BlogEngine.NET," correct?

James, yes it's to gather a lot of themes and make them available for download in a common location here on this page.

That's what I thought.  Thanks Mads.

Say, since you're posting, you'll have a donate link by the time 1.2 comes out, right?  Crawling the forums/issue tracker, it looks like I'll owe the project 10$ when 1.2 comes out Laughing

I made a gray theme called "SlimShady" for 1.1 =P

Tested on FF1.5+/IE7. I'm working on a fix for IE6 transparent pngs that doesn't slow down pageloading that much.

Will have a downloadable version available.

We now have 4 themes up on the themes page.  Hopefully, we'll add more as more are offered.
