Salmon is a theme originally created for WordPress by Justin Shattuck. To use Justin’s own words: “The new theme is titled, “salmon,” because of its pink and blue color tones.”
I have a list of WordPress themes that I’d like to port as time becomes available, and Salmon was definitely on the list. danielrae had requested this theme be ported in my Hemingway thread on the EE forums, so I took this nice long weekend to get it done. It wasn’t hard to port and it certainly was fun fixing some of the bugs that were in the original theme. I also took the liberty of removing some of the more redundant information that was included in each post. Just the kick in the pants that I needed to get back to my own site redesign.
Anyway, born from a request and 3 days of coding I’m happy to present the release of Salmon v1.0 for ExpressionEngine. Please feel free to head on over to the download page and customize the theme to your heart’s content. While you’re on the download page be sure to pay attention to the special instructions there.
Enjoy!

Hello everyone!
Just a small note to anyone subscribed to the feed: Salmon has been given an update to version 1.0.1. In this version, I’ve added Captcha support to the comment template for both versions of the theme. If you wish to add this to your existing installation, just follow the directions below!
In your comments template:
find
{if logged_in}
<p>Welcome back <strong>{screen_name}.</strong> Since you're a member, all of your info automagically gets entered into the comment fields.</p>
{/if}
<p><label for="comment"><strong>Comment</strong></label><textarea name="comment" id="comment" rows="10" tabindex="4" class="TextArea" style="width: 400px;"></textarea></p>
replace with
{if logged_in}
<p>Welcome back <strong>{screen_name}.</strong> Since you're a member, all of your info automagically gets entered into the comment fields.</p>
{/if}
<p><label for="comment"><strong>Comment</strong></label><textarea name="comment" id="comment" rows="10" tabindex="4" class="TextArea" style="width: 400px;"></textarea></p>
{if captcha}
<p><label for="captcha"><strong>Please enter the word you see in the image below:</strong></label><br />{captcha}<br clear="all" /><input type="text" name="captcha" value="{captcha_word}" class="TextField" tabindex="5" /></p>
{/if}
Easy fix, so it should go smooth!
