SimpleAs is a 5-in-one theme based on simplicity, and is highly-content focused, ensuring that that people who view the site won’t be hassled by unnecessary elements, and can instead find what they are looking for easily within the beautiful and sleek arrangement of the theme.

This theme comes jam-packed with features such as the sleek jQuery-slider on the homepage which displays the 4 most recent posts, in glorious size, using the default post image as a background. Upon activation there are a number of options ready to be configured, from the 5 different, high-quality colour schemes, to the configuration of social links from the site, this theme is highly customisable. Users are also able to create menu-drop-downs with ease which create stunning results without any technical knowledge whatsoever.

And on top of this, the theme comes bundled with three extra high-quality page templates. These are the contact page the gallery page, and the archives page. The contact page uses the latest AJAX technologies to deliver messages to your inbox with speed and efficiency, without the need for annoying page refreshes upon form submission. And the galley page presents specified images in an elegant fashion using a wonderful jQuery plugin designed to show-off your images in stunning style. Lastly the archives page displays all of the blog’s posts to the user in a stylish, yet concise fashion.

Straight away the widget-ready sidebar comes ready to deliver a Twitter stream, a gallery images feed, and a selection of sponsors, not to mention the many options that are available to you once you start to configure it using the powerful Wordpress control panel.

Alongside this the footer offers users a chance to read about your blog, discover recent posts, browse the archives, and visit your various social-media profiles - and all from within the footer!

Furthermore those who wish to comment on your blog will be shown a preview of their comment, and even have their Gravatar loaded in dynamically, allowing them to see exactly what they will be leaving behind. And on top of this, if a user goes to submit the contact form without having entered all the correct information, they will be alerted as towards their mistake as soon as they click to submit. What’s more, if a spam-bot attempts to send you message, the CAPTCHA should catch them out!

Lastly as page loading time is really important, the theme uses a powerful image resizing script to ensure that the post-images are of the correct dimensions and don’t take too long to load.

Below is a summary of all the features of this theme. I recommend you take a look at the live preview to view the different colour schemes and to have a look at the admin panel (have a look in the footer).
