Finishline – Theme for WordPress
My new WordPress theme is called Finishline, and will look familiar to some of you. I had this design on my blog the first few months. At the time, I was using the Cutline theme, which I customized to look like this. Since that time, I’ve rebuilt the theme on my own framework.
One very cool thing about this design, is the header image………or images I should say! First of all, this theme has random header images which is totally cool! The photos were taken by Jeff Keeton, a.k.a. Mulsanne. I used the same images before, and asked the photographer for permission to use them if I ever offered the theme for download.
It’s been exactly two months since I made the Networker theme available. It has become my most popular at this point, with over 4,000 downloads. Now obviously, I would love for Finishline to surpass it. Please check it out!
You can preview and/or download from my Themes page.

Jon, thanks man! Yeah, I remember you complimenting me on it before I even knew you. haha.
Very slick looking! I love the RSS icon in the tire – so creative!
Thank you Christine! I’ve become a big fan of Create Business Growth. I’m one of your RSS subscribers……I haven’t really gotten involved in the discussions, but I will. Thanks for the encouragement!

I like this theme very much.
Now I am using this theme on my Chess Teaching site, after using Cutline for a rathe long time.
I use other pictures and I have (re)moved the rss link to the top menu.
This template looks outstanding on your Chess Teaching blog – great choice!
Your site looks good. The background definitely works well for the “chess” feel. I’ve bookmarked your interesting site. Chess is probably my favorite game of all time.
Thanks
I was trying to create a theme based on Cutline myself, but then I was so lucky to find your Finishline theme.

Good templates. Nice work
I’m testing out this theme on my blog but so far, I haven’t seen it ‘randomize’ the images… I see the same yellow Penske ALMS car on the main page every time I view the blog. Should the images change when I refresh or do I need to do something to enable the random images? I’ve tested in Fx and IE6/7.
I’ve not made any changes to the theme, yet, but plan to use my own images in the future if I can get the random images working. I’m a race fan and have some great F1 shots from the past two years at Indy…
i got the code for the “random header images” from this article by Chris Pearson. The way it’s set up is that you get a different image depending on the page you’re on. For instance, a single post page should give you a different image, a different page(such as your about page) should be different, as well as archived pages. Hope that helps.
Thanks… Now that I know the image isn’t supposed to change randomly on the main page, it makes more sense. I just checked out the article and grabbed the code to add to the header. Now I’ve got the truly random images!

Finishline is beautiful, thanks a lot! By the way, is there a three column version?
Sorry, no 3-column version at this time.
Insightful. I like this. Will try to see whether the information provided herein is useful or not by the specific outcome after putting into use in real world practice. Thanks.
Funny and very attractive…
It’s free to download as I can see?…
I was looking for something interesting to decorate my new project, and stumbled upon on your blog.
Wow! Themes section – a great find. A lot of uncommon designs here.
I liked a few.
Yep, they’re free to download. However, I’m not keeping them updated at this time.
just checking out if I can try this for my new blog…thanks buddy!
I must say, your themes are very well done. I’ve not done a lot of work in WordPress, but I’ve been considering it. Your themes are definitely at the top of my list.
Great job,
