Install this theme
My new NOTATIONS Theme is now ready for you to install on your Tumblr blog. :)

Here are the reasons I like it:

A nice font. It uses the very nice Quicksand font by Andrew Paglinawan. It’s base64-encoded and looks gorgeous in most browsers. There is also an option to not use this font and default to Helvetica if you don’t like it. 
High res images. It uses high-res images whenever possible. To me, this really makes a big difference. I’ve actually had a blast going back through my blog and looking at photos. They just look better, bigger. It even makes Tumblr’s PhotoSet slideshows BIG. The images are scaled-up inside the Flash object, but they still look pretty good. (example)
Options. The theme allows you to turn off/on a variety of handy options, i.e., whether to show note counts, a word-count for text posts, tags, ask & submit links, etc. 
Print this Post feature. For writers this might be nice. It’s a handy way to let a user pop-open and nicely print one of your text posts. 
Keyboard shortcuts! Your viewers can navigate between posts using the “J” and “K” keys.
Has good support for all the Tumblr posts types including question/answer posts. 
Anyway, you can see it in action on my blog, or give it whirl yourself if you’re inclined.
