Premium Themes Contest

Ian Fernando is having yet another fantastic contest to give away 3 premium magazine/newspaper templates. If you’re interested, get down to his contest page and enter before 3 February 2008.

I have to say the 3 templates - the NewsPixel Design, CornetStone Template and Art Culture Template all look fabulous so I won’t mind having any of the three.

News or magazine-style templates are hot stuff at the moment. They can benefit bloggers by the maximizing of space such that lots of great content can be squeezed into a single page. These styles also allow a blogger to highlight certain posts which they want to feature prominently, especially popular ones which may have been written some time ago.

These templates are also ad-friendly and for bloggers who intend to fully monetize their sites, they could prove very useful as well.

In all, news or magazine-style templates could be set to take the blogosphere by storm. So have you got one yet?
