A closer look at one of Matthew Buchanan’s featured themes: Solaris

One of two new premium themes from Matthew Buchanan, Solaris implements nearly every Tumblr feature imaginable. Custom header graphics, author credit for group blogs, recent tweets, Disqus comments, custom colors, and shared Likes, are all painless to set up.

He’s also added a crazy trick where you can completely invert the colors (from light to dark) with just a click!

I’m inspired to bring a little of the craftsmanship of print typography to the web. I’m also enamored of the minimal, graphic works of illustrators Frank Chimero, Olly Moss and Stefan Dziallas, and wanted to bring some of that style to the largely content-focused layout.

Solaris is available for just $9 in the Theme Garden.  Check out the demo.

Thanks, Matt!

In art class today, I passed a piece of paper round the class with the heading “What do you think Tumblr is?”.
Little do they know that they were no where near what Tumblr actually is.
