New Theme: OnTheGo

My newest theme, OnTheGo, has been released today. OnTheGo is a completely hand-drawn theme that was scanned in and compiled to create a fresh and interesting design. It is fun and playful while maintaining an air of professionalism, and its unique appearance is sure to make your website stand out amongst the crowd. Creating OnTheGo was a lot of fun, as I have never tried to incorporate a physical drawing into a theme before, let alone base the entire design on hand-drawn line. For more information be sure to visit the Features Page and check out the Live Demo.

OnTheGo Features

This theme comes with all the great features you are used to here at ElegantThemes, including the ePanel Theme Options page and all the functionality it provides, complete localization and translation to English, German and Russian, and more. Here are a few stand-out features worth mentioning in greater detail:

1. Optional BlogStyle Layout – OnTheGo was created to be a page-based CMS style theme, however, you can also use it like a traditional blog by enabling BlogStlye Format in the options page.

2. Four Unique Color Schemes – OnTheGo comes with four different color variations, including Blue, Purple, Green and Brown. You can switch between these color schemes at any time via the ePanel Theme Options page.

3. Comprehensive Featured Slider – The homepage features a jQuery-powered slider. Unlike eBusiness, where the content of the slider is created using fields in the Options Page, OnTheGo gives you the option to popular the slider using Pages or Posts. You can define which pages to use for each tab, or you can simply designate a Featured Articles category to pull the posts from.

I hope you enjoy the new theme. Be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you think, I appreciate any feedback you have!

  13. Tomb says:

    Wow, do not test this theme on a already running site. I previewed it and it tried to show every post on the same page. Firefox crashed. :D

    • Tomb says:

      Hmm.. I tried it on another site and looks like it copies itself in some kind of frame? ..and then crash. It was’nt that it posted itself..

      • Nick says:

        You need to set up the theme via the OnTheGo Theme Options page, as explained in the readme. If you have any further questions please open a thread in the support forum and we will assist you.

  20. Carla says:

    That’s really cute! Great job. I love the color scheme.

  21. Matthew says:

    Looks nice … wait, where’s the preview of the next theme? :)

    • Nick says:

      Most likely my next theme will be eStore, which I previewed earlier. However I have some other non-theme updates planned for the near future as well :)

      • Matthew says:

        Ah, sounds nice! Can’t wait to see what other updates you have planned …

        By the way, why do you list Netscape compatibility as a feature on your themes? Does anyone still use it? :)

      • Kris says:

        new themes, eStore, color schemes, …

    Clint

  23. kris says:

    Awesome!
    Truth is: since the preview I’ve been waiting for this. I checked nearly every day…

  24. Ivan Mišić says:

    You just get better every time :-)

  25. Ian Davies says:

    Love it! Very different to the ‘other’ themes in the collection.

    As a member I must get round to using at least one of them. Been too busy to get round to it!

  26. Social Oomph says:

    This theme rocks! Great job and great vision. I signed up as a member only a short time ago and couldn’t be happier.

  27. mybestdrama says:

    You make me crazy Nick!!!

  28. Genel Kultur says:

    Woow, nice theme. Thanks.

  29. Kurt Avish says:

    WOW!!! Man sa c’est Magnifique!!!!!!!! (This is amazing).

    I’ll be using it at http://www.priscus.info soon – Too Good! Waiting for your next theme. Keep it up.

  30. I just wanted to say how awesome this theme is and how happy i am! The design is superb and the customization options make it truly flexible. Im using it for a design portfolio and the options availble to make that work are great.
    Thanks so much for providing a perfect theme package.

  31. It looks amazing Nick, the illustrations came out really well! :D

  32. Raymond K says:

    Great work! It’s an astonishing theme that really stands out. Once again brilliant!

  33. Altinkum says:

    l do love this theme like others but why do we need to much empty space on header always, banner would look nice l think because to much space has been wasted.

    Other than that looks perfect, well done ;)

  34. Bohn says:

    Great theme! I like it :)

  35. alias78 says:

    I like it so much. It is one of my favourite. Scabs, lines, this style… It’s a style dat I LOVE.

    Wonderful.. You are a great Web Designer (and developer to of course :) )

  36. hani says:

    this is such a well designed beautiful theme! I cant stop staring at it! I hope you have more like this.
    :)

  37. John says:

    Really like it. It’s quite different from the rest and I’m really digging the background illustration.

  38. Mel says:

    Oh my god I love this. If you did this style but in more ‘girly’ colour palette it would be a huge hit with the craft/scrapbook market.
    On another note, have you ever considered doing matching cubecart skins alongside your wordpress themes? There are so few good quality premium skins out there. i tried to do min myself but its pretty rubbish! Just a thought..

  39. Karl Foxley says:

    This has to be my favourite release from Elegant Themes to date.

    I love the look and the overall feel of the site. It’s professional and yet not typically corporate.

    Awesome,

    Karl

  40. Caity says:

    This is fantastic! I love it! I’m going to play around with it! Thanks! :D

  41. ralf borchert says:

    hi, you are a great designer and you have an opportunity to make your themes world class.

    I’d love for you to add the following widgetised areas. (BTW I’m a subscriber and have tested this theme)

    1) before the entries

    2) after the entries

    3) below each entry

    4) inline each entry

    I invite you to d/l the free semiologic theme (http://www.semiologic.com/software/sem-reloaded/) and study the sidebars.

    if you can include the sidebars that i mention in your themes, i’d be delighted as i could use your themes in earnest as i and others could set our adsense code once and concentrate on creating content.

    Currently i need to add ad code into each post one by one.

    If you would investigate my request I’m sure you’d recognize the value immediately.

    kind regards,
    ralf

  42. Hey its Looking pretty good..

  43. raj says:

    Latest themes Ok but no use for general sites. Create useful themes for general news websites.

  44. Sia says:

    Wow- really really nice work!!!

  45. JohnnyO says:

    Hi, i’m testing your latest theme. Looks great. One question about the image in the featured slider. In the readme file i read about the tab name, that listens to the custom field name Tab. But what do i have to use for the image?
    John

  46. Love these themes! I will be purchasing a membership later this month. This site came highly recommended and I can see why,
