Win a WordPress Blog Theme for Your Blog
update – thanks for everyone’s entries but this competition is now over.
I received a lot of positive feedback from last week’s giveaway of the WordPress for Dummies book.
One of the things that happened as a result of the giveaway is that I had a number of other people offer to give similar prizes. While I don’t want to let this blog get run over my prizes and competitions – I do like the idea of rewarding active participants of the site – so have decided to run another one this week.
This week the prize has been donated by Adii. Addii is a great blog designer and he’s generously providing five of his Premium News Themes for the winners of this week’s giveaway.
How to Win it
Because this week’s prize isn’t something that everyone needs (it’s a WordPress theme) we’ll run the giveaway slightly differently this time. You need to do two things:
1. Comment on this thread to register your interest. These comments can be anything from ‘count me in’ to ’show me the WP Theme’. This is your first entry.
2. Comment on any other post on the blog over the next five days. Every comment you leave on any post is another entry into the competition. Of course these comments need to be genuine and on topic comments.
I will randomly choose 1 comment per day over the next five days to win a theme. The five winners will be announced on Saturday (my time).
My hope with this is that you’ll still have opportunity to enter as many times as you like – but that we’ll get winners who actually want the prize.
About the Prize
Premium News is a one-of-a-kind, feature-rich, magazine style theme for WordPress, which is aimed at ambitious bloggers looking for a professional front-end to showcase their content. The theme is highly customizable and offers the user some advanced customization options through the WordPress admin panel – the look of the theme can thus be changed, without even touching the code. The theme usually sells for $70.
Let the Commenting Begin – and Good Luck!

I like how the theme is a magazine style, yet still resembles a blog. I think it would be a great theme to use for a website, so I’d be interested in getting a copy.

I’d love to win this theme. I think it would work very well for my blog, especially since I’m planning to start including CSS tutorial videos in the new year and the theme has very cool video integration.
My advertising scheme is largely based on 125×125’s, so that already works perfectly. I also already try to incorporate “popular” articles on my blog, and since that is already a very nice part of this theme, that would be perfect.
I short I think I could make a few tweaks this theme and move into it very smoothly and it would be a huge upgrade!

Show me the money! Count me in – I’ve participated in the past in so many contest in order to win “Premium News Theme”, but I’ve had no luck. This should be time for me!
I’m developing a music magazine site, which will be Premium, not like all the other magazine sites out there. I want create unique magazine loaded with features to challenge all the professional sites, and this theme is needed to take the first steps!
It would be also great to tweak the theme a bit and thus give something back to the community, maybe even inspire Adii and others.
Maybe I wrote too much, when this is going to be random pick, but I’m so thrilled of winning this time!

Hi great contest! I would like to win this so i can finally move to the almighty Wordpress platform. What keeps me from jumping over is the cost of even a Wordpress template and everything else as opposed to a free blog host.
This prize will go a very long way to help me. Btw, i came from the Philippines, so you’ll know that it will definitely be a 3rd world help.
thanks and Merry Christmas.

Darren, count me in! My name is Sergii and I’m blogger from Ukraine. I’m subscribed to your feed for a really long time and your posts (and guset posts on ProBlogger) really help me to grow my own blog (it’s only like three weeks old but it already has about 200 subscribers which is a big deal here for a such a young blog). Anyway, I really look forward to win the prize because all the free templates aren’t just good enough for me – i tried to code my own theme and it looks nos so bad nut still there’s some features I can’t figure how to do by myself, so i hope Premium News will help my blog to stand out from thousands of other ukrainian blogs.

Well, I guess I’m in too.
Now, about the theme. I generally do not like web 2.0 look – more like, I am sick of it. I know that a lot of other people are so. And since Adrian’s themes are mostly web2.0, I actually skim past them. Perhaps the only part I liked was the nice icons.
Howeverm this theme reminds me of Smashing Magazine’s theme – sharp, focussed, minimalistic and yet not stripped of style. Well done, Adii!

Hopefully I’m in. I’m new to the blogging world and your site. I’d don’t have a blog yet, just trying to find my place a premium theme would really be nice. Thanks and Merry Christmas.
