New Theme: eVid
I finished a new theme today. It’s called ElegantVideo, or “eVid.” This theme is for video bloggers, people who plan to intergrate videos from video-sites such as Youtube into their posts. 
Adding videos is fairly painless, just add the embed code from the website into a custom field and the rest is done automatically. The videos are displayed within a custom interface that adds some basic “blogger-like” features.

The theme comes with a decent amount of options. You can choose to remove the featured articles, popular posts, random posts and category boxes from the homepage, as well as specify the number of posts displayed within each element. There are two optional ad blocks, a set of 4 125×125 banner ads in the sidebar and a 468×60 banner at the bottom of post pages.

Take a look at the live demo and the features page for more info!






Wow, another outstanding theme, there is no other wordpress themes collection with so many georgeous advanced wordpress themes there like this one! Respect!
Looks good! However I’m not sure where can this be used. This one allows you to post vids and content, right? Is it possible to increase video screen size?
Would like to use it for photos ! Is that possible and how ?
Wonderful theme!
Congratulations, again!
Good job mate. Very good job =)
Much “cleaner” than the last one and not too colorful – it´s really elegant, thumbs up!
Wow, looks very, very nice.
Very clean theme. Like it a lot
As martinwaiss said, Respect.
only one word coming straight for you “Amazing”
This is your best theme so far. im waiting for your ebook or tutorials on “how to make wordpress themes”.
Happy ET club Member.
WOW Im so freaking glad I subscribed for this, your the best!
quick question, what does “Recent From Graphics” mean???
Those are recent articles from a specific category, in this case, the “Graphics” category. You can change which category the list of articles pulls from within the theme’s options menu.
Beautiful!
An awful lot like press75.com templates, but hey, they’re not going to be available anymore in november!
I love the color scheme on this one and the functionality is amazing…all I need is a site that could use it! (I sadly have no video sites!) I am going to play with it though that’s for sure!
hey do u guys like what i did with my site using this template?? check it out. just click on my name to see the site.
Great taste of WordPress , WELLDONE
Beautiful AND great functionality.
Too bad I do not have a video site in the works right now… might have to think that over… *lol*
Very good indeed! Congrats!
Great theme. Love it!!! Was wondering if it supports quicktime videos????
thanks
hi there,
can i suggest you show the rating for each video.. cause you can rate a video.. but u cant see the rating score?
also it would be also nice, to also have the stars and rating functionality with the video thumbnails.
also do you provide a service to redesign the blog.
thanks

This is almost seems to good to be true… all these great themes for $20? I will hang out here and sign up in a few moments.
Thanks for the deal.
Cheers!
In my excitement to post I was sloppy in my comment. My apologies … let it not be a reflection of all of me
This theme is outstanding. I like the design so much, I think there needs to be a regular (non-video) version of it.
I update the theme. When you don’t input a Video custom field, no video interface is displayed.
Outstanding job! Just a theme I was looking to get for one of my site.. so glad its available in my members area! Thanks a ton!
My site is online and eveythink works perfect great theme,my hobby site.
Thank you for your website

i just bought this and can’t find this anywhere on the readme. what is the custom field for the image background for the featured video at the top?
thanks
There is only one thumbnail custom field used in the theme. Use a Key of “Thumbnail” and a Value of your image URL. In the future, please post support requests on the forums.
I have uploaded and deleted eVid theme several times. Each and every time when I go into my Dashboard/themes – the message tells me that the stylesheet is missing.
Cna you help me figure out what to do? Thank you.
If you need help, please open a thread in the support forum.
Fantastic…Loving it..Can you make more themes for personal blog?
This is a great theme – my only question is if there’s anyway to make the videos bigger or as big as reasonable. People would rather watch videos of course as big as they can.
This is a great theme and absoultly perfect..

Hello, the theme is not working properly because it does not display the video thumbnails on the first page and on the video page (single.php) it display only the video, there is not the rest of the post… text, comments… I am using WP 2.8 and you can see the page in this screenshot.

Please give a quick explanation as to how to add a slider image.

The instructions do not reference this feature.
