Pico is a grid-based magazine theme created by Hafiz based on the famous Mimbo theme by Darren Hoyt, designed to work right out-of-the-box without having to install additional plugins.It has many features to diffrenciate itself from the other free wordpress theme out there…

Main Features :

1. Smart post thumbnail handling.

This theme supports the newly introduced 2.9 Canonical Post thumbnail or it will take the first image used (uploaded) on post.

2. 10 widget areas.

Yep.you read it right.This theme has 10 widget areas in which you can drop anything from related posts, archives, tags or any advertisement.

It includes four individual widgets on footer(unlike many themes, where there is only a single widget section is present for footer).

3. Pico’s Spotlight Widget Area

If you don’t use it, you won’t see it. Place any widget into the Pico Spotlight Widget area and bam! You’ll have that widget placed right on top right area of your blog, prominently displayed in a box with a strong background color, which can be used to differnciate the important messages from the content.

4. 3 page templates

It has three page templates as of now(Archives, List Authors and Sitemap).But i am sure he will increase the numbers in the near future.

Just go to your admin.create a page. use the templates from the dropdown and thats it.. you can have an archive page or sitemap page in seconds.

5.  Breadcrumb navigation

This theme has a beautiful breadcrumb navigation system at the top of every post or page.Again, No plugins required

6. Page and Category Navigation

This theme has grid based page and awesome category navigation (with description).The category description must be short enough to look good in the theme.

7. Related Posts

While on single post pages, this theme automatically shows the related posts on the same category on the right sidebar.no need to edit or add any widgets for this..

8. Browser Compactablity

Pico is known to work on the following browsers:

1. Internet Explorer 6+
2. Mozilla Firefox 2+
3. Safari 3+
4. Opera 9+
5. Google Chrome 3+

Other Notable Features :

9. Threaded comments support (upto 3 levels deep)

10. Runs out of the box (No theme edit required)

11. grid Design (pretty useful when you’re tweaking the design on your own!)

just Hit Alt + Shift + G to show and hide the grid guide

It has actually more features than shown above and most of all its FREE

you can download the theme from here and you can watch the live demo here.

My thoughts :

Actually i really like this theme very much which makes me to write this post. It has everything a theme wants.

1.I like to have a widget area on the top of the header on the right. Can use links to social networks or show some 468*60 ads there…

2. Eventhough it is easy to edit css, i like to slightly differnciate the color of sidebars from the content area.

3. May be different color styles to choose in the next versions

4. I prefer content-sidebar-sidebar rather than sidebar-content-sidebar (but thats only me)

5. Atlast, I love the theme Name “Pico“.Overall a very nice premium like theme.

Thats all.
