The Mystique theme has some nice features including three built-in widgets; Sidebar tabs, Twitter posts and Flickr gallery. It also features several page templates with different layout styles and many other theme options which are accessible from the backend Theme options page.

The theme has some minor issues with Internet Explorer 6/7 at the moment, which I’m sure will be worked out, but at the moment it works great with Firefox and IE8!

A demo of this great looking theme can be seen here.

A nice feature of this theme is the logo changer. You can use the default WordPress setting (“blog name”) or you can use your own logo. To use your own logo you must upload it to the root folder of the Compositio theme and name it logo.png. You can also use the PSD Logo Template in the source folder of Compositio Theme. (Image limitations: Not more than 590px/85px).

To activate the logo option go to: Administration Panel > Appearance > Logo Options, and select logo type.

Other Features

The theme is widget ready and the CSS is customized for the default widgets to match the site style.

The theme does not require plugins as they are already integrated into functions.php, so there is no need to install them. The only plugin you need to install manually is FlickrRSS (included in the theme folder).

• Includes Page Template for an Archives Page. Just create a new page and use ‘Archives’ as the Page Template.
• Includes Page Template for a Contact Page. Just create a new page and use ‘Contact’ as the Page Template.

I would highly recommend this theme to anyone looking for a good solid theme. It looks great, it’s cleanly coded, has nice page templates and lots of cool features built-in. Recommended.
