Eos is a free WordPress theme that has just been released with the elegant and clean look inspired by the colors of an aurora.

The theme should work with WordPress 2.5+ and has been tested in IE6, IE7, Firefox 1.5, Firefox 3.0, Opera 9, Safari 2 and Google Chrome. The developer of this theme, SRS Solutions, strived to create a superb looking theme for the WordPress community and I think they succeeded.

The design is very modern, with the background and header area having a aurora style grading that is very eye-pleasing.

The back end has an admin options page which is good to see. The admin options are just for the top menu bar which displays the categories of the website. Also, the drop down menus can be enabled or disabled here.

Overall, this is a nice looking theme with a modern feel. In particular, the top header area is very nicely done. To download, visit the  Eos WordPress Theme page.
