introducing Sakeena for WordPress

Sakeena is a very simple and elegant theme. The thumbnails at the top can be feed from a Flickr stream, so that they can be the users personal images.

I decided to enter the competition because Sandbox is a really great theme to work with, and although I don’t know Scott, I think I like him! You see, back before the competition was announced, I thought of building my first free theme and I decided on Sandbox as the base, I then emailed Scott to ask what he preferred in terms of linkage, I was pleasantly surprised when I got a thoughtful and helpful answer almost right away. I am even more impressed by the way the competition was conducted, I really appreciate the time and effort that went into both the theme and the competition.

More details on using Sandbox in an up-coming post, but for now, you can check it out here: Sandbox Theme

Sakeena is technically available for download, but since I did put it together in a day, it is missing a few key styles, so I will be working on a slightly modified version for a public release after the competition is over.
