Thanks Sufyan for featuring our theme Clean Retina. :)
Merry Christmas to all and Happy Holidays.
You’re welcome. Wonderful theme.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you too! :)
Great themes but I much prefer the old layout of the monthly theme post. The table is great but the grid of images doesn’t allow me to see the designs.
Thanks for this great Collection. Best regards. Good works.
