Suddenly two days ago I thought to work on a theme series of various ranging colors, named Azure. I thought it to keep it a simple design yet professional and attractive looks as from my survey I came to know people like minimal themes always, say for example, apart series.

So these themes would be available in sky-blue (the one shown in the preview) ,blue, red, green, black and maybe some other colors as well. I have nearly finished the blue one now.

The main aspect for the theme and its advantage is, it uses very less images except postbit buttons and the small normal icons.

The logo itself is also using CSS3 effects to make it exactly look like an image and the name can be altered via the header templates and thus trying to increase performance and loading fast.

Rest things like thead, header and all other similar things are achieved via CSS3 gradients which even beats image's gradients and are almost all old and new browser compatible.

Anyways, here are some previews and sneak-peaks for the Azure Sky:

And yes, the whole theme series would be absolutely free along with PSDs.

Feedback is highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Few suggestions;
1. Use padding in .thead, because the Category name is way to on the left.
2. The gradients are not good.
3. Every thing is looking dull.

The theme needs much more to work.

Alright.

1. Noted, would do, thanks.

Rest things as I said, I do not plan to make this theme a heavily coded or loaded with colors, so would keep simple and a bit similar to that of the default.

Thanks for the generous feedback.

I was about to suggest a different forumbit style, and saw you planned to make it similar to default.

Nice work Crazy4cs. Good luck.

Thank you.

Yeah, I want to keep this series simple but a bit stylish and professional but at the same time looking relative to default one. I have noticed many people goes for theme like this and no other work is greater for me other than satisfying people looking for some simple looking free themes.

Also, am now done making Green and Red ones, here is a preview:

Green - http://prntscr.com/65h1v

Red - http://prntscr.com/65h2d

the thead should add a radius.
If the logo has css3 trans. A links should have too. That will make a difference.
Good luck bro

It already has 3px round radius on upper two corners.

Haven't got much time. But I have completed Azure Sky, Green and Red. I would complete rest in couple of days.

The text shadow in the welcomeblock looks awful, no offense. Other than that, it's not bad though it is a bit simple.

Ha ha, I kinda thought to keep that text shadow along with white text. If people would request, I might remove it.

Thanks for the feedback.
