Live Demo: http://twentytwelvedemo.wordpress.com

Very nice, but not quite enough distinction between different post types for my liking. Reading the blog page[1] I couldn't help but feel the Quote and Image post types blended into the full post above... I'd darken the separator lines slightly.

Love it otherwise, will definitely use on projects!

#edit: Just realised it has a kickass gallery viewer. Sold! [2]

#edit 2: Gallery viewer screws up on latest Chrome/mac when scrolling the page up and down to view comments. Bummer.

Actually the kickass gallery viewer works on all WordPress.com blogs regardless of the theme.

We call it "Carousel" [1] and it is also available for self-hosted WordPress installs in Jetpack [2]
