Style: Pattern/Tabula Rasa

Edit: these are now live and can be selected from Customize Style. Original layers and pics are no longer available.

A spin-off of Trifecta designed for pattern lovers. Due to this style's narrower width I suggest using the site style for comments, or decreasing the content margins.

Themes: each theme is presented in two versions because I liked both designs and couldn't pick one. :)

* Cubes => Preview (one column split)
* Cubes II => Preview

* Feathers => Preview (two columns right)
* Feathers II => Preview

* Smoke => Preview (three columns right)
* Smoke II => Preview

* Stars => Preview (three columns sides)
* Stars II => Preview

* Swirls => Preview (two columns left)
* Swirls II => Preview

* Terra => Preview (three columns left)
* Terra II => Preview

Note: this lacks @media CSS as I am not familiar with our breakpoint system.

Stars is beautiful. I love it!

[ninetydegrees]

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Awwww, the little icon thingies on subjects and tags! They're an adorable touch. I think the background on Stars is my favorite.

[ninetydegrees]

Thank you! Glad you like them!

Cute!

Just a question about the credit: The Noun Project has work by a number of different artists, so the little icons should be credited to them, not the site as a whole.

[ninetydegrees]

Thanks!

Do you mean in the links? Because credit names the authors not the site otherwise.

[zaluzianskya]

Oh, I totally missed that! Nevermind.

Very beautiful. :) I like the second version of each theme the most. Great work. :)

[ninetydegrees]

Thanks a lot! I was working on a second batch when I got your comment and it really cheered me up. :)

I'm very glad you like the second version. It was sometimes harder to make than the first one. Thanks again!

[rosecarmine]

You're welcome. :) I would use Smoke II with the one-column page setup. It's my favourite and it's very pleasant to the eyes. :)
Looking forward to your new themes. :)

Very nice, all of them!

Have you thought of making the background stationary? It's an effect I've always liked myself but maybe it makes the layout harder to read?

[ninetydegrees]

Thank you!

Nope, I hadn't because it makes my poor brain all confused but it works really well. Thanks for suggesting it. :)
