The latest version of Compatriot has been pushed to the Theme Garden. I’m finally eating my own dog food with this release. What you see on this blog is identical to what you’ll get upon installing the theme. I’ve got some font-embedding action going on this time around. The header is set in League Gothic and the body text is in Gentium.
Tell me if you’d like any functionality added. I still have a few ideas in the works, but I figured I’d at least make this update available in the mean time.
Apparently someone at Tumblr HQ thinks the theme is an aberration, which is fine by me. I’ll make a pretty one someday, I promise.
Version 3 of the Compatriot theme is now available with infinite scrolling, keyboard navigation, and music posts with album artwork. Enjoy.
Woohoo. Compatriot is currently featured on Tumblr’s Theme Garden page.
I’ve been making a few tweaks to this blog recently, namely: infinite scrolling and keyboard navigation (try pressing j and k). Hopefully I’ll be able to get around to incorporating some of them into compatriot in the near future.
Edit: Turns out the featured section is apparently now just a random list of 8 themes. I do not regret making this post.

To install this theme:
- Download the file here.
- Copy all of its contents.
- Login to tumblr. From your Dashboard go to Customize > “Use Custom Theme”
- Paste the theme into the text box and Save Changes.
That’s it. High five, well done, nice choice. Tell me if you run across any design quirks, and I’ll get right to fixing them. Email’s a nice way to get in touch.
What does this mean? New design time wooooh.
Sorry I couldn’t manage to get the avatar in the header.
