If you like Branford Magazine...

You may also like these themes. Some are free, others require purchase.

FREE: Mimbo 3.0 - Before there was Branford, there was Mimbo. You'll recognize the similar elements right away. Mimbo is a great theme! If you hate custom fields and want an easier theme with more widget freedom, you'll love Mimbo.

(While you're there, check out Mimbo Pro and some of Darren's other WordPress themes.)

Studio Press - Formerly "Revolution," this is another WordPress theme series that inspired the later creation of Branford Magazine. You'll see the similarities immediately.
