A new theme is available for the wordpress.com's blogs : sandbox 1.6.1
The theme's still the same, it's only a technical upgrade.
If you’re using an older version of Sandbox and are unsure whether Sandbox 1.6.1 is a good upgrade, or whether Sandbox 1.6.1 will work with your current custom stylesheet, here’s how you can try it out:
