minimalist Theme
The minimalist theme is crisp and clean. Featuring a three-column satellite menu-page to reduce clutter and streamline usability, the minimalist theme is designed to present site content with sophistication and elegance.
The minimalist theme is XHTML 1.1 strict, employs nearly valid CSS (ha!), and features browser-safe colors and universal fonts all delivered via concise, two-column liquid layout.
Mindfully detailed and carefully prepared, the minimalist theme provides plenty of room for customization and expansion.
This theme is offered absolutely free under open source GPL. Instructions are included along with a complete set of files and images. Relatively simple installation.
The minimalist theme has been tested with Mozilla Firefox 1 & 2, Internet Explorer 6 & 7, Netscape 7+, and Opera 8+. Note: minimalist looks best when viewed via Firefox.. ;)

Being a minimalist, it took forever to find a suitable minimal wordpress theme. Thanks for creating it and even more for making it available! Very nice work :)
