Colormatic: Blog CMS Theme by Theme Wars

CMS Themes — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 18:36:37 +0000

Theme Wars is one of the newest theme clubs to enter into the premium themes market, and their specialty appears to be with designing quality CMS themes.

The initial concept of the website appears to be simple. They designers create two designs and their users vote on the one they’d most like to see created. The winning theme will then be released! Unfortunately, the system appears to be flawed as the designers have started making both themes regardless of which one wins, leaving nothing unique about the website.

Theme Wars is, however, still a great website and has a few really nice CMS themes to offer, as well as an impressive support setup.

One of their latest releases is a new CMS design called the ColorMatic theme:
