This are four non blog style themes for blog system WordPress.
In this review i take four themes: Kiwi, Squible, Scattered and Hemingway.
Now what this themes make different from others WordPress themes. The are very unique because they are more like CMS systems that a normall blog themes.
What are the plus of this themes, they are very unique and you can build a site that will not look like typically WordPress theme. But it also have a big minus. They are complicated, much php codes, plugins, big CSS so it will load and also could work for a long time. You need to have a good fast hosting account. The most complicated and slowest is Kiwi.
Kiwi
You cad download it from this page: http://no.oneslistening.com/kiwi
This theme is the most complicated style. It uses images for a posts, very unique possibility. Kiwi has a great support system by forum. It can be configured to your fits. Just my version of Kiwi that i use recently, i work on css lots of time. It has a wp-admin panel options, so good that it could be a system inside the WordPress system.
Squible
It can be download from here: http://www.squible.com/squible/
I use this theme for my site. I changed CSS to my ‘mint’ colors, it is still beta version but works quite good. Theme have also a configure panel in wp-admin panel. Many feautures can be manage by WordPress panel. It also have a support forum , not likely on flickr page.
Scattered
Download from here: http://dancameron.org/general/1038
I don’t configure it, mean changing the CSS. It is a first version of this theme. Also this style is based on K2, it is a mod of K2 witch has a great forum here: http://binarybonsai.com/forums
Hemingway
Download from here: http://warpspire.com/hemingway
Just install this theme, it is also a first release of this theme. It hasn’t got a wp-admin panel to configure it.
You can see hemingway in action and talk about also here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/hemingway
Also a new mod of this theme goes online here: http://wpthemes.info/hemingway-bright
I think this text help you a little to choose the best theme for yours site. If you need more info about this styles just visit the theme sites. There are many support post for it, also a links to page that use this themes.
If you want i can show you this themes on my site by request.

After some changes.
Great skin !
I’m using the Hemingway theme right now, with some minor tweaks. I’ve also started a Hemingway Theme Group on flickr so that others who are suing Hemingway can share their tweaks and such.

Scattered is a mod of K2 which, IMHO you should’ve added to your review list .. K2 got a nice support forum too ..
I update the text and add your links. Thanx for them.
Allyn your Hemingway theme looks and works great. Good job.

Sadish

Hmm maybe maybe. Aber was ist das?
Very helpful post, was just what I was looking for. Thanks!
No problem, i think my last theme would be on that list also
Man that kiwi theme is really sexy! I love that bright green on black and white
If all WordPress themes had easily implementable “drop-down” menus, this publishing platform would totally wipe out over 50% of the lesser known PHP CMS scripts, out there.
Can some one tell me which theme kineda.com uses. And hoiw to get that theme?
A beautiful remake of hemingway using web 2.0 colors which you can check out here http://teckitech.com/07/wordpr.....b-20-blue/
