It is a fantastic new 2 column theme which is divided to give the sidebar a lot more room for you to use. It’s a great looking theme and the proportions of this theme make it a nice theme to view on a widescreen monitor.

The front page shows the latest post with an accompanying large graphic image which helps attract readers more than the usual large text titles. Below the latest post is a list of the 3 other recent posts with each post accompanied by a thumbnail image. Also, the comments and trackbacks are divided to produce a clean and organized look.

According to Dino; “this theme was inspired by a lot of great blogs out there like Web Designer Wall, Matt Brett, Avalonstar and 5 Thirty One to mention a few “.

Installation

Upload to your wp-content/themes folder as normal. But, before you activate this theme you must go to Settings > Miscellaneous and enter the following values for the Thumbnail size. Width=195, Height=155. And also make sure the “Crop thumbnail…” box is checked

Required Plugins

  • The Twitter Tools plugin. Install and activate and configure.
  • The Advanced Excerpt plugin . Install and activate. Go to the settings and set the Excerpt length to 25 and uncheck the img

Download

The theme has been safely tested on WordPress 2.5 and WordPress 2.5.1. The live demo for the theme is currently being used on Dino’s Blog. You will be able to see the Una theme in action there. Unfortunately Sidebar Widgets is not supported with this version of the Una Theme, but it more than makes up for it with the sidebar’s great usability.

Visit Dino’s Blog to download Una WordPress Theme version 1.0

Well worth a look !
