White as Milk

White as MilkA couple of you have asked about the White as Milk Wordpress theme that I posted for the Wordpress Theme Contest. So here it is. It works fine with Wordpress. Its nice and clean and white. I started using this theme for a photoblog, but then realized that there wasnt a good clean theme around for others to use, so here it is, download and enjoy! Thanks to Francey for the tip off

 This version of the template has some major updates. It fixed some margin issues in IE. Also, WhiteAsMilk is a minimalist theme. So make sure the content you use with the template is minimalist too. For example, when adding images, keep the images at a reasonable width (around 500 pixels).

    Hello Azeem,
    I am another happy user of your excelent design. I am using it in my personal blog, http://www.jorgetome.info.

    I have just made some little modifications in order to enable Widgets.

    Thanks for your work!

    White as Milk is my favorite WordPress theme!
    Is there an easy way to edit the header.php file to change the header to a clickable image instead of CSS text?
    Thanks again…PayPal donation on the way. ;)

    i was also looking for a clean simple theme and found “white as milk”. i think its great. thx

    Mr. Azeez, I love your White as Milk theme. Great job! I think I’ll use it. Two questions:

    1) How do you randomly rotate the images in your blog header? That’s waaay too cool! I’d love to be able to do that.

    2) I loved the Users Online and Most ever on Line STATS at the bottom of your web site. Can I get a copy of the script?

    Thanks much.

    hey azeem, thanks for this great theme. your theme was the best that could happen to my blog. I'm still waiting for the 3 column extension ;) tin

    Definetly, yours is by far the coolest theme: simple, clean and classy. thanx.

    I’ve translated it into galician so to use it as a private blog for my group -if anyone interested in the translation, just get thru to me.

    just like gary posted on 18.nov I’d also like to put a random image header, i’ve messed around with the code but just couldn’t get it working by now… ;-|

    And the users online would also be a nice feat…

    By the way, I’ve learnt about whiteasmilk since it was a built-in theme in my server’s wordpress set-up.

    Hey, I love White as Milk. I’ve been looking for a clean, simple theme that had the look of a glossary and I finally found it. Now the hard part is learning how to apply multiple themes to one blog. I want to use White as Milk just for my glossary category. Any ideas?

    I might just have to start a second blog just for the glossary using Wordpress MU.

  12. _

    Nice and clean Theme…
    I like it.
    Do you work still on it?
    I would like to use it as basis for my new Template.

  13. _

    Hey— Just wanted to say thank you for your “White as Milk” theme. I implemented it on my site (http://alex.polvi.net/) and it looks really slick!
    Keep up the good work! :) Thanks again, -Alex

    wonderful theme, really! the ultimate choice if you want your content not a fancy posh design to be the juice of your blog! and it’s great for variations… though there is one thing that i just can’t understand and it kind of spoils the “cleanness” – it’s the divider between posts! mentioned also above by Vincent… would be great if you’d advise as to where to change/disable this! thankyou!

  15. _

    Hi, I blew my old layout, so I activated yours until I have an idea for the new one… so, thank you – but in IE, within the individual post view the posting body starts below the sidebar.

  16. _

    Can This use wigets

  17. _

    Just a quick note to say thanks for the great theme. I’ve set it up on my site and I love it. Keep up the good work.

    many thanks

    great theme, i’m using it now. so clean.

    Hi! Amazing Theme!

    I’ve made some minor modifications to the layout.
    www.jebaloo.com/blog
    Have a look, it’s still a work in progress and the header is just blocked out so that I know what to design to go there.
    I’m a bit of a newbie when it comes to the web, so I have one main problem and I can’t work it out.

    See if you click on ay of the Archives, it doesn’t work. I have checked through the code I can’t work it out, any suggestions?

    As seperate and less important questions which are also above:
    Random image header would be great, how would I do that?
    Also, how to I get my header image to link back to the homepage? I tried, but it made every single link on the page link to the homepage too. weird!

    Any help appreciated, thanks!

    thanks for your theme, i just installed it and i love it. THANKS www.onlymamo.de

  24. _

    yeah! actually I am using it now :) …but my white as milk skin is too naked :) maybe u can make me at least a nice header :) ( free!!!bleh!!) … i had installed it just now and one has already comment that he preferred your template than the other one :)

  25. _

    que pasa, azeem?
    I am one those who found your WaM theme as a native option for Wp2.0 and I didn’t hesitate for a moment and whiteasmilked my dance and music company’s working web forum! [http://www.nordesia.com/info-2004/040220ngd-01.html](Howcome, I just can’t get the way to tweek the header so it dispalays a random header image… hmmmm (any clue to carry on the tweakin?) -apertas!

  26. _

    WaM is a great looking clean theme. When I open the styles to make some modifications though, it struck me that the stylesheet is unnecessarily complicated by about 5x. Maybe this is holdover from the original version(?), but it occurs to me that for the css to be as elegant as the resulting theme, this could be pared way down and organized much differently. I’m hacking on it now. Cheers!

    Hello,
    I love this template… but I would like to put an avatar on the side bar… on top of this, its possible? A special place…
    Sorry, my English is not very good…
    Congratulations to your job…
    And thanks for your attention…
    I’m waiting for your response.

  28. _

    Azeem, thanks for a very clean and friendly design. One question: We have multiple writers on our blog. The Category name appears at the end of the blog. How to make it appear at the top of the posting, so that readers know who is writing?

  29. _

    After trying out almost all the templates on Wordpress, I have found that I like WhiteAsMilk the best, excellent work.

  30. _

    That is definitely way cool :) * thumbs up*

    WhiteAsMilk rocks

    hi azeem, great work!
    but i am stuck getting an image in the header. can u gimme a hint, how to do this? actually its 2 pix – one above sidecolum aligned right, one in the other aligned left … has it do do with “#headerimg” in the CSS??
    yo help is apreciated :-)

  33. _

    Great theme, Azeem! I’ve been using it on my blog for over a year.
    WordPress 2.1 came out and I upgraded but I’ve been wanting to upgrade White as Milk to handle 2.1’s new features and deprecated tags. I dropped by your site a few days ago and nothing showed up so I figured you’d quit the blogosphere… so I began making changes myself. I was planning on releasing a 1.1 version once I add support for 2.1 plus widget and lightbox support. You wouldn’t happen to have already done these things, would you? I’m not really a PHP developer, so I’m learning as I go.

  34. _

    I just installed WhiteAsMilk and it looks great. Thanks so much for creating it. :)

  35. _

    Just switched to white As Milk on Wordpress.com and am really liking how clean it is. Great job and thank you for the excellent theme.

  36. _

    This is a great theme. In Internet Explorer 7, however, the bullet points (ul/li) don’t render correctly. Could this be fixed?

  37. _

    Hi, I’m just starting blogging and have created a recoding and variant of White as Milk that I’m calling Skimmed Milk (giving all due respect to you, Azeem Azeez, of course). If it’s of use to anyone you can see it, read about it, and pick up a copy <a href=“http://thortz.com/skimmed-milk/”>here</a>.

    Love it! Exactly what I wanted in a blog with no changes needed. Everything in the right place. Regards, Sam, Australia.

    In IE, if the sidebar shifts down, its probably because one of the images on your posts is wider than 500px as I’ve mentioned above.

  42. _

    Thanks Mr. Azeem, nice and charming theme. And I just using it.

    Thank you so much :)

    Very nice theme but youtube videos are cropped in the layout.
    Can you just add some px to width?

    Bye!

  56. _

    LOVE your theme! I feel like I literally looked through hundreds to find the perfect one. Did some custom CSS to it and added some side bar contents to it. LOVE IT. THANK YOU!

    Excelente theme, le hice algunas modificaciones como agregarle soporte para widgets y ademas una barra para navegar por las paginas del blog.

    I really like this theme, TY. It’s a perfect photoblog theme, IMHO. I do have one question though, do you offer this theme in template format? You see, I’m new to WP and would love to code the theme myself as a learning experience.

  59. _

    LOVE this theme!
