Ministry Free is a little bit similar to the premium theme, Ministry Theme. I designed this site to be the front end web site where I will feature the Ministry Theme. I wanted it to be clean and free of clutter. Here are some features…

• Valid CSS & XHTML
• Widget-ready sidebars
• Support for tags, gravatars, comments, etc.
• Nice search feature and clean menu style
• FREE!

If you’d like customizations made, a logo designed, or if you download this and use it, feel free to contact me.

Note: to replace the header’s text with a logo, take out the following from header.php:

<p class=”site-title”><a href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>”><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></a></p>
<p class=”description”><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></p>

and add this:

<a href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>”><img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/images/yourlogo.jpg” alt=”<?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?>: ,<?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?>”></a>

Your image file can be .jpg, .gif, or whatever, but store it in /wp-content/themes/ministry-free/images/.

This will show your logo and will have an alt= text of your site’s name and tagline. Right now, the logo’s area is 300 pixels wide by 108 pixels high. You would need to tweak the stylesheet.css file to change this.

Bible Scholar is basically the theme I use for my blog (currently) at www.brandonacox.com, enhanced so that it can be applied to any WordPress blog. It can be 2 or 3 columns, depending on how the owner wants to style the site. It has room for ads, a nice search function, and the built-in ability to use the blogroll without using it site-wide. The preview page includes instructions. Note that I’ve updated it as of April 24 to include threaded comments and to reflect some changes suggested by WordPress. The theme provides gravatar/avatar support.
