free premium themes

Some refers premium themes as themes that have more quality in terms of design, or maybe layouts (magazine, grid, showcase, etc) that differs them from the majority free themes. It’s also fair to label them as themes that allows you to do more customization, or even displays content in a different formats. Most premium wordpress themes are paid themes, that means you’ll only get to see a demo unless you are ready pay for it.

However let’s not put an equation between premium wordpress themes and paid themes. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve nothing against paid premium themes. It’s just that you should also be aware of some of the cool premium themes out there that are nicely done, and the best part - free. Here’s a showcase of 16 free wordpress premium themes that’s definitely worth a look. 3 themes upfront, full list after jump.

    Nice list, and WP Premier Red is my personal favourite.

    What’s with adding Grid Focus etc. on this list? They’re not magazine-style, elegant or have extra features.

    I’ve found more or less the same WP themes about a week ago at http://www.visual-blast.com/wordpress/10-free-magazine-style-wordpress-themes-to-choose-from , except WP Premium and SCC Gallery, and CSS Gallery is what I need :)

    This is a nice collection of free premium Wordpress themes! My #1 favorite is the Mimbo Magazine theme. I like its layout. It suits my taste.

    I think I’m going to use it on my blog sometime. The design’s pretty cool!
