I was particularly flattered that someone even asked where I <strong>bought</strong> it.</p> <p>It is just a customized version of Joey Robinson&rsquo;s <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/minimalist">Minimalist</a> theme. My aim was to keep the same design principles &ndash; fast-loading, minimalism, readability &ndash; but update it to have a more modern look. One major goal was to have a truly great font via <code>@font-face</code> on modern browsers, so I used the <a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/junction">Junction</a> font from The League of Movable Type. They&rsquo;re an awesome group of <a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/manifesto">free</a> font designers &ndash; you should check out their other fonts too!</p>
