Really nice collection of themes. My personal favourite is Made – Responsive Review/Magazine Theme

daclements says: It’s actually interesting to see just how many of these magazine themes are looking more minimalist. In my mind, in the past they have been so cluttered and everything is screaming for attention, but actually Newsroll, to pick an example, is really well designed and looks fantastic! A great way to organize your different sections of content, while not sacrificing user experience, and looking stylish at the same time!

Great list! I’m also a huge fan of the minimalist theme movement. Less clutter means featuring your best content!
Some of these themes like Newsetter and Megazine look very professional! Your web magazine will really look like a big media hub.
It’s nice to see so many options. Publishers are all taking different paths in the transition from print media to digital media.
wonderful post.
