As I told you before “Changes are unavoidable and inevitable”, remember Thesis Makeover? This New Theme’s name is Bureau News. Have to appreciate both the designer and the design. Kudos. I customized the theme to the needs of myself and HBB.
Overall the images in the theme are less than 10 KB. That’s quite encouraging since Google Search Rankings Considers Site Speed. I also removed many plugins and replaced them with codes.

I used Thesis 1.7 for HBB previously, but had only Personal License.
Personal License – Use of Thesis on one live website and one localized development server.
And am working on a big project right now, so thought of using Thesis on that website. But if Time and Money favors, I’ll buy the Developer’s License, which allows me to use Thesis on sites that I own.
I have more plans for a better design, hopefully very soon. Have to improvise the logo and some other sections of the blog. All I can say is keep reading and you should be pleasantly surprised shortly.
Yeah, your feedback is greatly appreciated!

Theme is clean and simple. Loved it. Read this blog for the first time today, enjoyed reading your content. Your theme is not allowing me to leave from here :-). But anyway I have to leave, will come back soon. Keep up the good work.
TechChunks
Aha! I was wondering why you had taken down the CommentLuv plugin and I guess, now I know why! 🙂
Great looking yet simplistic design. Would like to see you revamping the Logo, though! Cheers…
Tech Freak
This new look is far more better than the thesis one!! I am loving it and it loads fast too..
Blackberry Application Development
This theme really looks neat and will convert well.
Do something to style it up a bit. It looks a bit bland.
Dennis Edell | Direct Sales Marketing
Lookin' good my man!
I notice above you talk about the commentluv plugin; even before that you need the subscribe to comments plugin ASAP please. 😉
Also, a post (or more) on the plugins you replaced with code, and the code used for each, might be a really good idea…a couple how to posts for those wanting to code over plugins. 🙂
Ram kumar
Nice theme buddy 🙂
sidduz
Nice Choice! Cool looking theme man. Congos 🙂
JadeDragon@innovativepassiveincome
I like the nice new clean style. Not sure how much load time is REALLY going to factor into SEO. My guess is it will be pretty much a non-issue.

The new theme is simple and cool, I like the design, you can doing a good job. I consider looking for nice and cool theme to for blogs as well, but I dont know where to fine nice cool themes.

I like simplistic themes and hence I like this one (and also the one on millionclues). By the way your homepage total size is more or less the same as mine (~200kb) as I had optimized it for speed recently. Also had done w3c validation a couple of days ago. Another point about w3c validation is that you have to also do it for single posts, pages etc. There are 100+ validation errors on single posts. This is important because majority of the search hits comes to single posts.
Your blog now loads a lot faster though it can be still improved. I think it’s something to do with your hosting service.
S.Pradeep Kumar
Yeah, minimalist themes are now getting lot and lot familiar.
And W3C validation is quite encouraging, but I have to remove Alexa Widget and Facebook “Like” widget unfortunately.
And this theme, without ads, looks great! 😀
Ajith Edassery@Make Money Online
That facebook like widget is causing 8 validation errors for me on single post. That’s the only error I have on single posts now 🙂

hisoom
nice new look
Rajeel
Hmmm.. New theme looks good. It’s really simple and elegent. Why everyone is being simple nowadays …??
btw it really loads fast 🙂
Hami
Congrats for the new style and them buddy! but hey do make the font a little bit big. Don't you think its smaller than optimum for a better readership..
S.Pradeep Kumar
Yeah Hami, the fonts are a bit smaller right now. But when I tried to increase them I had some issues with the navbar. Am working on it, will fix it asap. 🙂
Hami
I think you know the solution as you are already expert on these issues. But you can either change the CSS entry of Nav bar or of the content text, and designate it for you wanted style. 🙂
p.s missing your CommentLuv plugin.
Marlene
I like the look of your new theme. Clean and simple. Thanks for referring Pingdom Tools, I did check my site and not quite satisfactory. I might as well do some changes soon.
Blogger Templates
This theme has a really clean layout.I love white layout themes because of readability and attractiveness.
Asif

Hack Tutors
The most attractive is the comment system and top navigation bar. And your sidebar is very good. This theme looks professional 🙂
