Typogriph the Minimal Wordpress theme
Obvious enough, I just changed my theme from Fusion to a cleaner and lightweight theme called Typogriph as I had been looking around for a simple yet nice theme that suits my need. And finally came down to Typogriph as my best choice. There may be other popular theme called Thesis which most notable bloggers have been using but unfortunately this theme doesn’t come for free. It is priced at $87 for personal use and $164 for developer’s option. You can check the price in detail here.
The stuff that I like about this theme are:
Minimalist
Typogriph has a clean and minimal look and feel which hopefully results in more lightweight pages in order to give a faster loading and browsing experience – without relying so much on catchy images as well as heavy style sheet to appeal your readers.
Just a Switch
Changing to Typogriph from Fusion is just like pressing a switch. There was no hassle or other settings to make your pages to work correctly. With my activated plug-ins and just one or two tweaks to my AdSense widgets and there I have it, my new theme.
Fluid
Typogriph is a fluid theme which means that it makes full use of reader’s browser real estate and automatically adjusted when re-sized. This is definitely beneficial to meet various screen resolutions.
Browser Compatibility
Tested to render well across various browsers like Firefox, IE (6, 7, 8), Apple Safari, and Google Chrome.
On the contrary Typogriph does not render your page links well if you have pages as sub of other pages. The links were a mess so I had to fix that by moving sub pages as parent pages to quickly solve it. And everything else was acceptable and I love the arrangement of the widgets on the front page that showcases all my desired widgets, recent comments, and most popular posts.

I liked your old theme better..this is a bit too bland :D
If you like Thesis and looking for a “free alternative” to it, check out a theme called Vigilance. I had it reviewed on my blog.
Or you can see the working version on my other blog, http://www.writeforgod.com ;)
It’s minimalist too but I like font styling the most
Yup, Fusion is definitely better looking than this.
Yeah I read your post on that theme but I think the theme is more bland than this, at least for my eyesight :) – with mix of white and dark colours, although I love the font style too.
But yeah Typogriph is not the best as you see the alignment in each comment is out. :)
