Geometric

Webmasters need to make their websites popular by showcasing its every aspects rather than non-structured things like design portfolios and blogs. Geometric themes from woothemes definitely help by allowing the webmaster to make his ideas come out and modify all possible web space by the use of different widgets, thus eliminating rigidness from the template.

Since this theme is a hybrid of portfolio and a blog, you can run both these as a combined offering on a single WP installation. I found that this theme offers a customised homepage allowing you to move the different gadgets for social profile, blogging and portfolio anywhere as you wish.

The most amazing part of the geometric theme is that it gives a clean and tidy look to the website besides offering a multi-column layout, interesting colour schemes and integrated theme options to change the appearance of the website.

An option of interchanging the right and left sidebar, which is completely widgetized makes this theme even more attractive.

Theme Features:

• Geometric is a hybrid of a blog + portfolio and thus enables you to run both these as an integrated offering on one WP installation
• A custom home page, which is completely widgetized and thus allows you to move different widgets (for blogging, portfolio & social profiles) around as you wish
• A completely widgetized sidebar, along with 12 custom (Geometric-specifc) widgets that you can use
• BAbility to interchange between a left and right sidebar
• Styling for both blog and portfolio items that are carried forth throughout the site (category, date-based and tag archives, along with search results)
• The ability to publish all of your social profiles throughout the site; allowing you to connect with more of your users.
• Automatic Image Resizer, which is used to dynamically create the thumbnails for the blog posts on the home page
