Grid Focus – HTML5

WordPress Grid Focus – HTML5 Download

WordPress Grid Focus – HTML5 is a re-work of Derek Punsalan’s excellent Grid Focus WordPress theme which I have converted to use HTML5 markup.

WordPress Grid Focus was originally a personal project designed and coded for 5thirtyone.com. Grid Focus is a three column widget enabled WordPress 2.6 or 2.7+ compatible WordPress theme. Prominent navigation bar with room to share important pages. The latest update is completely optimized and stripped of any unnecessary code allowing for complete customizability.

In exchange for the download, please include the Grid Focus link for others to download for their own use.

It pretty much holds true to Derek’s original, with the two major differences being that it uses HTML5 markup, and the copyright date uses my PHP decimal to Roman numeral converter and is therefore displayed in Roman numerals.
