Predefined Aspen Subthemes  ← You can click the ?'s found throughout Aspen admin pages for context specific help.

Welcome to Aspen

Aspen gives you extreme control of your WordPress blog appearance using the different admin tabs here. This tab lets you get a quick start by picking one of the many predefined subthemes. Once you've picked a starter theme, use the Main Options and Advanced Options tabs to tweak the theme to be whatever you like. After you have a theme you're happy with, you can save it from the Save/Restore tab. The Help tab has much more useful information.

We realize Aspen has a lot of options. To help make it easier to get started, you can click the "Hide Advanced Options" button found on the right side of the screen wherever a "Save Options" button is found, and a simplified set of options will be displayed. Just click the "Show All Options" button to once again show all options.
