Very few themes/styles are available for Movable Type 4 as of now. The nice themes over at  The Style Archive do not yet work for MT4. However 3 of those themes have been ported and I’m using the Hemingway theme for my blog over at Gaa Gaa Gubbi.

Installing these themes is very easy. This is one of the things I liked in MT4 over WP2.5, although number of themes available for WP far outnumber MT4. No downloads required. Just point to a url, select preferred layout and you are done.

Steps for installing new themes on MT4:

1. Open Design —> Styles.
2. Click beside the Categories heading.
3. Enter the url of the site using the theme required.
   
   • Hemingway theme url.
   • Cutline theme url.
   • 2813 theme url.
4. Select the preferred layout: “2 columns Wide, Thin”, “2 columns Thin, Wide”, etc.,
5. Done !!

You can also see Live Demo of the themes by clicking on the theme links above.
