Letterpressed – A Free WordPress Blog Theme

As mentioned earlier this week, we have a first for you from the Arbenting blog. Angie has created a brand new WordPress theme just for you! And the best part…it’s free!!

That’s right! It’s theme time, baby. We feel this is going to be the beginning of a beautiful new direction that we are leaning here on Arbenting Freebies. Original WP themes for the design community at large. For the maiden voyage, we are taking a minimalistic approach to things. Letterpressed was created with the main focus on typography, there isn’t a single image used in the design. It’s been tested and optimized for the browsers listed below, however, the letterpress effect doesn’t work in any version of IE yet and also doesn’t work in Firefox2.
