This premium magazine style WordPress theme is the third in my “Jazz Musician Series”. SpiegelMagazine is an amazing and feature rich magazine style theme. It comes with lots of great options such as an nice image slider, an admin interface (options page) for easy setup, various pre-defined color schemes as well as lots of great custom widgets for individual customization (e.g Twitter, Newsletter, More from this category etc.).
After a sax-player (BranfordMagazine) and a trumpet-player (WyntonMagazine) I thought it was time for a guitar-player. So I dedicated SpiegelMagazine to New York based jazz-guitar-player Russ Spiegel. I know Russ personally from the days when he used to live and work in Frankfurt/Germany. The theme requires WordPress 3.0 or later.
