Our Rights WordPress Theme
Once upon a time, a good friend of mine designed an awesome, grunge-looking theme for her own blog. Now, she’s really productive and I know sooner or later she will change that theme with another one of her creation. Yet I loved the theme so much that I don’t want it to simply disappear once she’s done using it. And, being a WordPress geek, what better way for me to preserve it than by making it into a WP theme?
To keep a long story short, she eventually made another new design and generously allowed me to convert her old design and release it as a free, GPL-licensed WordPress theme.
So here it is, Our Rights WordPress theme. Here’s a demo version for you.
Bullet Points for the Lazy

Wow, beautiful.
You know what would really awesome? If one could modify the header as a psd or something. Otherwise really rocking theme.
Thanks,
D
Gorgeous! One of the best I’ve seen in 2008.
This would be a very nice theme if it did not waste so much space on the right side. Why not make the posting area larger?
I also agree that it’s important to be able to customize the header.
Otherwise, I like the artistic feel.

Hello everyone,
thank you for the kind responses! Regarding the header PSD, I don’t think it would be available. The truth is I’m using the JPG from the original template when converting and unfortunately the original designer can’t find the PSD she used to design it.
Very very nice. Unfortunatly the download link is broken.
I’m new to blogging -since March. For two months I used the WP “Default” template and a customized Kubrick header while I focused on writing, photography, SEO and other things.
But I’ve been bored with the plain-Jane default template, so I surfed-around and tried about four dozen two-column, right-sidebar free-of-charge WP themes.
Now I’m using Our Rights! I wish, as Jane does, that the posting space were widerrather than have excess white space on the right. But I’m not complaining! I thank you for putting Our Rights out there for us!
Peace!
Really nice looking theme, and great that it’s “WP2.5″ ready with gravatars. This is exactly the type of theme I’ve been looking for, it’s not just another one of these daggy themes with coloured boxes as the header and plain bright coloured lines as borders. The pastel colours you have created with the header are enchanting.
A couple improvements I would recommend is having it all centre into the middle of the screen so as to not waste space on the right and have eyes straining to the left. The second improvement is regarding image placement. The theme “doesn’t feature “right” or “left” or “centered” styles. It uses the CSS deprecated “align”. Please change the code here from align to class so your site will validate and you will have much more control over image placement.” I would have thought this means it is not truly WP2.5 ready.
Also, how can you say it is WP2.5+ ready? WP3 isn’t out yet, so how do you know it’s going to work with WP3.*? I think you just mean to say it is WP2.5 compliant (albeit not entirely, otherwise there wouldn’t be the problem with image placement).
All the best with your future theme designing, looking forward to your next revision of this.
Hi Tom,
awesome comment, seriously.
Did you get your theme by downloading it here or via the WordPress theme repository here http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/our-rights/stats/ ? The one available here is actually not the most updated version, my mistake for not updating this post earlier, what with my being busy and all.
I’m pretty sure the one on WordPress.org already have the image placements CSS; in fact, I was given exactly that warning when uploading it to WordPress.org, which I promptly fixed.
Re: left aligned layout, I think I have mentioned before that this is basically a theme that I converted from a layout made by a friend. I don’t have the original Photoshop files of it, just the HTML/CSS, and so there’s nothing much about it that I can do. Well yeah, I could just center the whole thing with CSS, but this makes the header area to look cut-off and I think it’s ugly.
So I keep it as is.
Re: WP 2.5+ ready? Well it’s modified now :) Thanks for the note on that as well.

This is an awesome design – the fonts and colors are very carefully chosen, the sidebar is lovely and bold, and the organization of the blog part contrasts nicely with the disorganized image at the top. The colors complement and this really is as close as a theme can get to being almost fine art.
However: I had to stop using this, and I’m complaining here because I would love for it to be fixed. Throwing my blog text all the way to the left made it aggravation for my readers to see the what they were reading properly. That has to change for me; if it doesn’t, the theme is unusable for any blog with posts more than 3 lines each.
A minor complaint is that sticking the title into the image and keeping the color black yields one’s title and subtitle looking like a smudge instead of speaking clearly and distinctly.
I really want to use this theme again. But right now, I’m sad to say, I’ve had to shelve it.

Thank you!
thanks for the theme =]
what isn’t showing up for some reason is the page navigation (older, newer or next/previous… whatever it should be). any clue how to fix that?

Hi. I adore this theme – thanks so much for providing it. And I actually like it being left-centric. I am having a problem with it, though, and I’m hoping you or a reader can help. I’ve been adding content to this site and suddenly all the right side navigation has shifted to the bottom of the page – clear down off the screen, where you have to scroll to see it! I’m sure it’s some simple setting that I’m too much of a newbie to grasp – of anyone can tell me what it is?!?
I figured it out. If a link description is too long, the whole sidebar moves far enough down so that there’s room for it.

Hi Hafiz,
what would I have to change in the CSS to center the blog in the middle of the browser screen?
I modified
body {
line-height: 1.5;
margin-left: 150px;
}
…to get a bit of margin to the left but that is rather “dirty” programming…
thanks,
peter
