Vivathemes Overview

The demand for WordPress themes has been growing constantly and more and more designers offer their products in the market. As of July 2010, Vivathemes offers 17 standard themes to its clients. Their themes are designed to meet the requirements of customers with business and personal websites and blogs. Vivathemes also offers custom-designed WordPress themes.

Theme Functionality

The WordPress themes from Vivathemes are compatible with the latest version of WordPress. They have a number of functional features such as a custom menu system, user friendly theme panels and background panels. Some have additional ready widget bars, menus and integrated blog pagination.

You can find Vivathemes themes with various features to suit your website’s purpose. Some are designed to provide more pictures while others focus on the written content. It is possible for you to opt for a WordPress design that matches the actual theme of your website, such as the style or nautical theme.

The themes from Vivathemes are functional, but they have limited widgets and additional features compared to providers like Elegantthemes and Organicthemes.

Theme Graphics

Some themes from Vivathemes have more impressive headers than the others, but there are a few really eye-catching ones. The colors of the themes are classic, white, black, blue red, but they lack an artistic touch. That is why the deep contrast, which adds to the elegance and attractiveness of a website, is not present in some themes. The company offers themes with different fonts. You can choose from a variety of styles, sizes and colors, but the choice is not as wide as with Elegantthemes, for instance. The placing of elements is standard, in most cases, and its functionality is satisfactory.
