WP Bats

WP Bats is a two-column theme largely inspired by the design of the New York Times’ blogs.

As you can imagine that gives it quite a newspapery look and feel. The main column is on the left, with a widget-compatible sidebar on the right.

Nice touches include a print style sheet, tags, horizontal navigation across the very top of the page and an archives template. The theme is also valid in terms of its XHTML and CSS coding.
