Soft Brown, an sNews CMS theme released

OK folks, here is the initial release of my very first publicly available sNews CMS template, Soft Brown. Here are a couple of preview shots, but if you want to get a real look and feel for it, please visit the demo site; softbrown.mdj.us (offline until further notice).

funlw65, thanks for the feedback. I hear what you're saying, I just felt it was a little "too brown" after working with it for a while.

But that's an easy change in the style.css sheet for anyone that wants to do that;

Change the base color in the body tag to #b7b495;
Then change the link colors to #989061;

I think that should do it.

Thank you Matt,
I had the intention to use a color picker :p

The previous theme have a good contrast and is great for gaming/art/photo blog.

The new palette is a little (bit) too aggressive for my tired eyes :)

No worries, everyone has different preferences, I'm guilty of constantly changing details on my designs.

I'm happy you've found the theme useful as a starting point. If you end up using it somewhere, I'd love to see what you've done with it.
