Back in February, the folks at Automattic released a fresh new starter theme for the WordPress community, lovingly titled _s.

_s was designed to pave the way forward for some great new themes, but getting started was a bit of pain. Enter the new site for the _s starter theme, Underscores.me. Underscores.me not only tells you why you should consider using _s to build you next great theme, it also provides a super-simple way to download your own copy, complete with your new theme’s name, slug, author, author URL, and description already set!

So, if you’re itching to get your name out there by launching your first theme, there has never been a better time to give _s a try!
