The New Theme Is Here!
Without further ado, I present to you the official new theme of Zero and Up!
This theme was designed by Kiss My Code, and I’d highly reccomend them if you ever consider purchasing a custom design for your own website. In just one week they were able to turn my ideas into a reality, and the price was great, too. Anyways, I told you that I was going to bring in the new theme with a bang, and I wasn’t lying!
A Big Sale!
First off, I’d like to mention that I am running an advertising blowout sale to celebrate the new theme. Every image ad spot is selling for just $5 for the first month! Every text ad spot is selling for just $1 for the first month. Keep in mind that these are introductory prices, but I hope that you consider buying one to give me the chance to prove to you that it’s worth the money. If you are interested in advertising here, please visit the advertising page for more information.
Win A Link!
Would you like to win a link in the sidebar? This will be running until 9PM CST on Wednesday, April 9th. There are three ways to enter, so listen up.
(1 Entry) Leave A Comment On This Post - Leave a comment on this post that’s more than just “Hi!”. Maybe give me your opinion on the new theme, or say why you’d like to win.
(2 Entries) Stumble This Post (And Review It) - If you deem this worth stumbling, be sure and do so to gain an extra two entries. Be sure and leave your stumble username in the comment, though; otherwise I have no way of knowing who gets what entries.
(10 Entries) Blog About The New Theme - Blog about Zero and Up’s new theme! You don’t even have to mention that I’m running a contest, just let your readers know that Zero and Up is officially stylin’. Again, be sure and let me know where you posted about it so I can give you your entries.
A Series On Themes
I’ve had a few readers who have shown interest in the whole process of buying a theme. How much does it cost? What do I need to know before buying a theme? Why is it important to have a distinct theme and branding? Over the next few days, I’ll be posting some hopefully helpful information about themes and how they affect your blog.
Hope you enjoy the new theme! Let’s give a round of applause to Kiss My Code for their job well done

Your site is great and I love how you are a bit sarcastic.
“Fail-Proof Plan To Make Your Blog Comment Free!”
That is a breath of fresh air. Most sites just say stuff like…
“how to get comments on your blog”
BORING!!!!
Thanks for the site.

I’m glad everyone likes the theme!
@Paul - It just so happens that in ( http://zeroandup.com/getting-a-theme/59/ ) todays post I gave a price range for the theme. (Under $200 but above $100; you could probably guess it
)
