Resurrection is definitely an eye candy. I’ve always admired the author’s blog design and layout and was surprised to find out that he was offering the theme for free. I love this theme! I love that it has 3 columns and its sidebars are designed to accommodate all the necessary stuff including advertisements. I also love the custom icons.

Although this theme is beautiful and well designed, IMO it does have a few “flaws”. First is, Resurrection is not a widget-ready theme “yet”. I believe it won’t be long before the author or someone else will make it widget-ready. Second, the background image’s file size is very big, at least 110 KB each compared to a normal background image which is less than 10 KB in size. This can be an issue and make page loads slower for visitors who have slow Internet connections. Lastly, the Resurrection theme doesn’t work out of the box and requires the following plugins to be installed:

• Ultimate Tag Warrior
• WP-PageNavi
• Twitter Tools
• Feed Count

Although the author does include these plugins in the theme’s download package, the thing about it is that not all bloggers use Twitter or UTW. The theme won’t work if you don’t install these plugins. So if you don’t use the required plugins but still want to use the theme, you’ll have to do some code editing before you can use it.

Btw, the package also includes 3 extra background images aside from the default background image. Overall, it’s still a very nice theme and I give the Resurrection a rating of 4 out of 5.
