Time for a change…
Posted by jrezerNov 4
I really like this blog theme but I’m thinking it might be time for something new. I do a lot of tinkering in WP (we use it for work, plus I use it for a few other blogs I’ve set up for people) and this theme doesn’t operate the way that most do. For some reason, all of the code is stored in another file and you can’t use the Editor in WordPress to mess with the PHP. This is totally unacceptable in my opinion… kind of like trying to change the oil in your car but having the hood locked. Maybe a bad analogy, but you get my drift.
There a ton of free themes out there, and some you need to pay for. In most cases, everything you’d ever want to do CAN be done with free themes — it’s just that the paid ones give you more options and make it easier, saving time in the long run. That’s something I can definitely use more of…
Anyone out there have a favorite theme or theme designer? I’m partial to Thesis… I’d love to hear what you like to use!

I love all the themes I’ve purchased from http://www.ithemes.com. While their designs aren’t what anyone would call amazing, they are very functional as “brochure” sites for small businesses. The other theme source I go to constantly is http://www.themeforest.net. There’s a zillion WordPress themes to choose from, and are creatively designed and easy to customize. That’s my input for you, Jeff!
