Win a Free Premium Theme from Templamatic

Published September 16th, 2008 in Competition

A few months ago we gave away a free license to a premium WordPress theme, and today the opportunity for Vandelay Design blog readers to get a free theme is back! Templamatic has offered to give away three copies of it’s recently-released theme, With Style.

If you’re not familiar with Templamatic, it is a marketplace for a variety of premium themes and templates. Currently the site includes WordPress themes as well as HTML and CSS templates, with some other additions possibly on the way in the near future.

Templamatic

Designers and developers can upload and sell their themes at Templamatic for 65% commission on the sale. Buyers have a number of options as there are almost 30 templates/themes currently for sale.

The theme that is up for grabs, With Style, is designed by Maleika Attawel and it features an artistic and textured look. It normally sells for $50. You can get a preview of the theme at Templamatic.

With Style

If you want to be one of the lucky winners, simply leave a comment on this post stating why you would like the theme or what you would use it for. Be sure to leave a valid email address where I can contact you. The winners will be chosen Thursday evening (in the U.S.), so get your comments in before then.

The three winners will be chosen as follows:

  • 1 winner will be drawn randomly.
  • 1 winner will be selected by me.
  • 1 winner will be selected by Ben Harper of Templamatic.

Ben and I will base our choices on the comments. Good luck!

Thanks to Ben for this giveaway. If you’re not familiar with Templamatic please take a moment to visit the site.

Great theme guys! I will like to dissect the theme from the inside out to learn some fine theme design from Templamatic :o )

Thanks!

Donnie September 16th, 2008

i would like to use this template for a vegetarian recipe blog.

Paul September 16th, 2008

What a great looking theme. I think I could use that for the photo blog I’m working on.

Ashwin September 16th, 2008

A nice professional looking theme. It’s a long since I’ve updated my blog’s theme. Planning to use this if I win.

Sonali Agrawal September 16th, 2008

Wow….This is a wonderful theme. I would definitely use it for my husband’s blog, because his blog is lacking the kind of attention it wants.

Nat September 16th, 2008

Alright, I admit it. I’d like to use this for personal reasons. Maybe that’s selfish. But I’m trying to start a career in design, having trouble finding a job, and I think a blog would look REALLY cool to employers if linked to my portfolio! :)

pablopabla September 17th, 2008

Hey Steven,

Do you think this theme would be a perfect fit for my site? If yes, I want it! :D

…but it sure requires lots of tweaking to suit my stuffs :P

Mel Ndiweni September 17th, 2008

We just got contracted to do a lot of work for a south african aid agency, I would use the theme to document the trip etc and show people how to get involved.

Rich Hill September 17th, 2008

With Style is A real handsome design that concentrates on the Blog message without blasting the reader with unrelated ads.

Once their attention is gained they have to scroll all the way down through the previous postings to use any of the site navigation indexes.

Very nice design and I can think of several product sites that I could use this on.
Thanks for the opportunity.

Shanna September 17th, 2008

What a nice little contest.. thanks Steven! I would actually use it for our chiropractor’s website. You see, years ago, my hubby used a lamo template for our chiro’s site, and I didn’t realize until recently that he but my link at the bottom. :-x It’s horrendous looking and desperately needs a makeover. If that’s not reason enough… when you google my site name, it’s one of the first designed sites to show up. sigh.

canute September 17th, 2008

Would love to use this for an author friend of mine who has recently been published!

Icyone2 September 17th, 2008

I would love this theme for a new recycling site I am building

Ian September 17th, 2008

This is a well-designed theme. I wouldn’t mind using it for my site. It’s unfortunate I hadn’t found it sooner. It’s not too dark… just the right amount of contrast. I typically prefer very light web site themes and design, so this is a theme that pulls off a nice compromise.

Raju September 17th, 2008

Wow!! its a real funky but equally professional looking theme. I would love to have it for my present blog. It would be a dream come true for sure!!! Such a be-fitting name – “With Style!”

Pat September 17th, 2008

That theme would be perfect for my blog! Right now i am just using a generic free template and could really use the update!

Jason September 17th, 2008

I found a link on my website on one of your posts, and now I find a chance to win a free template ! This place is heaven !!

Many thanks for all these wonderful posts … I keep digging to find more and more cool stuff.

Oh and by the way, I am from Quebec, Canada, and I usually speak french (sorry for all my mistakes). I would be really glad to win this template because mine is not so cool and I have so much work to do that I can’t give much love to my blog … you know, He’ll be really happy to have a new design !!

Jason

Ovidiu September 17th, 2008

I’d like to use With Style for a Linux community site redesign. It looks too slick to be true! :)

Amber Case September 17th, 2008

Thanks for hosting this contest.
I’ve been considering WP-Remix for a large site on Cyborg Anthropology. I’ve been collecting resources, papers, and individuals in the industry for a period of 4 years and am researching a method with which to adequately present them online.

I’ve been using WordPress for a few years and would like to take my current site to a new level. I’ve also used Drupal, but it would be great to have a resource site that has theories and success patterns that could help others succeed online. This template looks like a great one to have fun with.

ümit September 17th, 2008

I like premium themes. :D

raul September 17th, 2008

I love that theme! It is one mix between smart and good taste. Really original, thanks

Michael Clark September 17th, 2008

I would use it to move my personal web site ( http://www.michaelclark.name ) away from its ancient table-based layout into a CSS based layout. Luckily I’ve already moved a lot of the site into WordPress.

sundyme September 17th, 2008

I’ll be the winner,haha! It’s so nice a theme!

Nathan Chapman September 18th, 2008

Hey. Very nice, very snazzy.
I’d like to use this theme for a website that will be used to:
1. Help me fund my school trip to Borneo
2. Provide funds for the people over there (anything raised by the site will be split 65/35 – people/me)
3. Publisice our trip until we go, and then document it both while I’m on the trip and when I get back

Thanks, Nathan.

Tony Nicholas September 18th, 2008

EmmaB September 18th, 2008

My email is digitalworldbaby[AT]gmail.com.

I want that theme because it just looks so awesome! I have a blog that is in need of a makeover and I think this id the perfect theme for it!

SE7EN September 18th, 2008

I don’t win the last competition I hope I’ll be lucky this time hehe.
May I copy my own comment from last time? lol

I use my current theme since I started the blog on New Year.
This theme is similar style to my current theme.
Big date on the left, footer widget, 2-column, right-sidebar.
but It’s still refreshing to change the theme.

although it’s similar but I love this style so I want it! (Is it called grunge style?)

After reading other people’s comments I don’t think my comment’ll be manually picked because I blog is just a personal blog that not very useful.
So I will pray on luck. :D

p.s. I forgot that I have an account on Templamatic when it free WPViddler theme promotional period.

Cadu de Castro Alves September 18th, 2008

My blog is offline. It can be a good chance to come back WITH STYLE.

Dainis Graveris September 19th, 2008

I would like to get premium template because as always I haven’t got enough time to create my own and I am not really so good at it. I want to start new blog for my school-mates, so we could easily exchange infromation about lessons, problems – to create somewhat similar community site but just for our course for now. I think it’s very unselfish task, so I would be happy, if I could get my hands on the premium theme. Thank You for giving such a chance at all!

umair September 22nd, 2008

i am going to buy this theme any way insha-allah. better if you give it to me free.

Craig September 22nd, 2008

I would love to start my blog beginning with style :)

Gopi September 23rd, 2008

Wow, Thats the coooooooolest theme I ever saw.
First of all, thank you for the contest.
I dont want to speak lies to win the theme.
I want this theme because

First of all, I cant afford to buy premium themes. I have website but I use a free theme, which every one’s using. If I get this theme, my blog will look unique(completely).
Secondly, I like the theme, so so much
I dont know who created the theme, we have to appreciate his creativity. I want to the theme very very hardly.The work is professional.

I dont have much to say, I just want to win the theme and use it right away. Now itself.

If I win this theme, I will be a lucky person.

Thank you for the contest once again.
I hope I will win the contest.

George Drage September 25th, 2008

Wow Man what a great theme.

Ronald September 27th, 2008

Sandy Chiropractic April 18th, 2009

Alright, I admit it. I’d like to use this for personal reasons. Maybe that’s selfish. But I’m trying to start a career in design, having trouble finding a job, and I think a blog would look REALLY cool to employers if linked to my portfolio
