Kill the Sidebar but Keep All the Good Stuff

Special Post Boxes

Finally – Animated GIFs as Featured Images
Make you blog even more impressive visually – DAZE WordPress blog theme comes with an integrated support for Animated GIFs. No need for plugins – simply upload an Animated GIF as your featured image and the animation will be shown on your post page as well as on all you post lists.
Bored with Classic WordPress Pages? Use Pop-Out Pages!
We have developed a new feature frequently used on trendy minimalist blogs – Pop-out pages and advertising banners. If you want to add more dynamic to your About or Contact pages and make them look more original – simply build an eye-catchy Pop-out pages and optionally add Animated GIFs to them.
