If you’re into photoblogging, check this out:
When you have the Monotone theme set up on your blog, it will take the first photo attached to each post and place that image prominently at the top, with the post text and comments below.
Simple enough. But what’s unique about this theme is that for each post page, Monotone changes the colors on the page to match the colors in the photo! A very cool method for creating an eye-pleasing visual atmosphere for your photoblog.
Check out the Monotone demo to see it for yourself.
The theme isn’t yet available for download, but should be in a few days.

Brilliant, simply brilliant, the code has promise for many unique applications. Hat’s off to the developer and great find John.
I developed Monotone for Automattic. It was a really fun project and I’m very excited to see people start using it.
Great work, Noel! I love how the theme is both simple and yet revolutionary at the same time.
If in future versions you include more Sandbox-style CSS selectors, I could see Monotone becoming the Sandbox of photoblogging!
John, a sandbox photo theme is a great idea, I’ll make sure to keep it on the “to-do list.”
Again, thanks for the compliments. But, my gratitude goes out to Wordpress for being such a flexible platform and a loving community.
