Hey Sean - just wanted to say thanks so much for featuring the Album theme! It was fun for me to step outside by normal design element when this theme was created. I feel honored!

What a fantastic Blog! Thank you for the information, & watch www.pimlico-flats.co.uk/blog whilst I try out your suggestions. I'm going to start with Blue Grace, though I'm hoping that a novice like me can change the colours to my website colour scheme.

I just launched a blog (http://www.8chocolate.com) on Wordpress and being a non techie I found WP to be really easy to use. I almost went with the Blue Grace design however it didn't seem easy to change the random photos in the header. The ones it comes with didn't go with my chocolate content. I ended up using www.diythemes.com/thesis. It's a great design, 3-column like Blue Grace and the thesis community is great when you get stuck. Great list of top designs you included here.

Nice.
I have to add that the open-source WP-iStalker theme (http://code.google.com/p/wp-istalker/) is one of the most wicked themes I've ever came across.
Fully compatible with Wordpress 2.7 too!

I would also have to include Thesis on this list as well. Powerful, flexible and SEO-optimized, it's a great out-of-the-box theme.

Sean, great article. I had to settle on a new them about a week ago and would have like this info then. We settled on the Structure theme http://themehybrid.com/themes/structure which would be a great add to your list. It is a free style magazine theme and is compatible with WP 2.7.

sean,
thanks a lot for the mention of iQ2 and PhotoQ! yes, you assumed right, they are both completely free.
OverEasy looks pretty nice of a theme. It stood out of the list posted.
Chris
· 11 months ago
I'm 99% with Shevonne on this one. Some nice theme above but the bulk of them are seriously expensive when you consider you're using them on a 100% free blogging engine. In saying that though I admit I paid for the theme on my blog - technoholic from ericulous (http://ericulous.com/) ... cheap though, less than $20.
Wow, judging on how those themes suc*k, I am not sure what others look like

Overeasy is so cool, bought it last year with a 4 in 1 package and i'm working on it to make it my portfolio. It has some cool options when you want to use it as a portfolio or cms.
Great Wordpress theme, and with no doubt 2.7 compatible.

Good list, but most of them are paid versions. Perhaps, you can come up with a listlof free WP themes.

Interesting you didn't mention Thesis. It's fully 2.7-compatible and has some of the cleanest visual design and CSS code I've ever seen. WP Remix, OTOH, I can't recommend at all. It looks great at first sight. But the CSS is awful and customization is laborious.

Thanks for the suggestion, it was time for a change on my blog as I never did get Cutline customized to my complete satisfaction. I went with Amazing Grace, and it looks good out of the box. I'll soon be adding a bit of customization (rotating my own photos) but not that much. Thanks for the kick in the keister to start the new year right!

Times Cafe News stands out for me ... as the one that shouldnt be there ... from a desingers point of view it just doesnt cut it for me, its a personal opinion though, and some of them are amongst the best. Stumbled :)

David Odang

thanks already make this list, so i can choice one.
I’ve got a quick question for you. I’ve never used Thesis. I’m using two Woo Themes right now for two blogs. I’m evaluating premium themes for a website that we’re building. It’s not going to be a blog. Instead it will be a full-functioning site with a blog as one part of it.
At Woo Themes, the best choice for what I want is Vibrant CMS. Can you tell me how Thesis compares to Woo Themes (Vibrant CMS in particular?).
Much appreciated, Craig

Hi Craig, I'm thrilled with Thesis theme especially because of the HUGE community forum for support. I don't have the experience to compare the two themes but Thesis does have a user guide on their site that may help you determine its capabilities.

Great List - should do a top 100. Even when trying to narrow it down to 10 its difficult, but you have some good ones here, also should do a Free vs Paid. That would really tip the scales ...
