Previously, I’ve done two sets of simple WordPress themes; 5 Simple WordPress Themes and 10 More Simple WordPress Themes. Since a lot of people seem to appreciate the minimalism of them, I decided to showcase 5 more that I have found over the last month or so.
Sometimes, I think I would like to make the look of this site simpler but I’m not sure what I would remove.

I like “simple things in life” – nice, clean look.

Hi Vered – I know you do :-) I look to my left and see an overstuffed shelf and know that you would hate it …

Interesting. I’m looking to do something real simple on an upcoming blog. I’ll be creating my own, but still looking for ideas.
Speaking of which, let me (and Ari) know what you think of this – http://ariwriter.com/redesigning-my-blog-layout-do-you-like/

Hi Dennis – Hmm … I already did. :-)
Ari Herzog says
By definition, minimal is less than what you currently have — and given all of those layouts are two columns, how is any one more minimal than another? ;)

Hi Ari – I should definitely have your site on this list. I’ve had this post floating around for awhile – before your update.
Carla says
I love “simple things in life”. I love how clean that is!

Kim Woodbridge says
Hi Carla – I think that is my favorite too.
Colleen says
I like simple. Kinda why I like the Thesis theme. Out of the box it’s simple, or it can be made as complicated as desired.

Hi Colleen – Thesis is a simple looking theme. I don’t think it’s very simple to work with though ;-)
Colleen says
Perhaps it is for us, as we are not taking advantage of the many features. We simple load it and run it. At least my husband does not bother with it. I think the only option he selects is the number of columns and the column width.

Kim Woodbridge says
Absolutely – it’s just any customization beyond what it comes with requires writing a function. I work on Thesis quite a bit but when I don’t for awhile I feel like I need to relearn it :-)
Momma Drama says
Oooo… I really like whitepress. maybe I’ll test it out in the middle of the night – will it save all my current theme’s settings when I switch? Anyone know??

Kim Woodbridge says
Hi Momma – Your settings should be find. You can also do a preview in WordPress without actually activating it.

Acosmin5 is the best one of those in my opinion.

I like that one too but would probably change the baby blue color.
Aj says
This one is also really good…

Hi Aj – Thanks – I like that one.
Aj says
I am glad. I created it myself and it is 100% Free with the GPL license. I just added a ton of new features. I hope people like them ;)

Hi! Just downloaded WP-theme “white press 1.0) and it seems not complete? Something is missing, it doesnt work. Great themes by the way!! Take Care!
Kim Woodbridge says
Hi Lisa – I recommend contacting the theme developer if you are having trouble with it.
