ASCII One is a free WordPress theme inspired by typography.
The theme:
- is widgetized,
- has 3 columns + 1 for the metadata,
- has 2 sidebars for widgets.
This theme will be supported and upgraded. New versions will be available here. If you have problems with the theme, leave a comment.
Warning! I will only try to solve problems with the theme. I will not help you with WordPress or any other issues :>
IE6 is NOT supported as there is less and less users of this… strange phenomenon.
Theme works with WordPress 2.6+
At first I wanted to use a typeface with one of the text replacement libraries, but finally I’ve chosen Helvetica because of its beauty and popularity (and its clones).
The font used for graphical elements is Museo by Jos Buivenga.
You can try the theme out here.
You can download the ASCII One Theme v1.11 here.
ASCII One is published under the GPL licence together with one of the greatest web design magazines - the Smashing Magazine.
Nice template! Kudos!
v1.11 is out.
Translation completed. I just put it on my blog. Cool, thanks.
I’m also experiencing the comments problem (with WP 2.7 RC1). If I drop in the comments.php from another theme, however, then posting comments seems to work.
Info: the theme has been released under GPL, so you can modify it, but you have to release the modified version under GPL, too.
Wow, thanks for your permission!
For me, it’s a must to keep the footer credit intact and mention author in both XML file and template setup page.
By the way, I love this theme! Again, a very unique and creative theme.
Thanks for the swift reply. I’m looking forward! If you find a quick solution or hack
please let me know.

Alvaris, as you wish
Just would be nice if you mentioned at the bottom that the template is based on my theme.
Do you mind if I convert this wonderful Wordpress theme to Blogger template?
Just friendly asking
Gideon, I’ll check it and release an update. Stay tuned
Hey Piotr,
Newest release: 2.6.5. When I switch to another template comments work fine. Strange ehh.
Gideon
Arystor, it is the image view with links to other image attachments in the post.
Gideon. What WP version are you using?
Hey man,
Great theme. Like it a lot. One thing though…comments don’t seem to work. When you post a comment the screen just goes blank and tries to open /wordpress/wp-comments-post.php. Is there a simple solution you can think off. There’s some other people on SmashingMag who have the same problem.
Cheers,
Gideon
If you click on the image of the first post takes you to a navigation image (here).
What is that? I have never seen but it is great.
Sorry again for my english.
This is a nice theme! I make a lot of sites and will probably be using this one soon. We are just now starting to *not* support IE6 as well…it caught my eye that you aren’t even trying!
The development time to tweak and massage a site for IE6 is just toooo much…
Arystor, sure and thank you
What images are you asking about?
I also want to translate it into Spanish. It is of the best themes I’ve ever seen. Very original and with a good design.
I do not understand much about the images in the first post. Is it an Easter egg? What is your role?
Sorry for my English.
v1.1 is out.
I widened the layout, so at least youtube videos fit
Cool, thanks. I like it. I’ve implemented it on my blog.
Kaiserlino, sure. the theme is ready to be translated. do let me know if there are any strings that I missed.
Hi, i would like to translate and release this theme in Portuguese if you allow me too.
Today i am making the post about it in our blog, with the links pointing here and Smashing Magazine.
Hope there are no problems.
Thanks
