    Wow it is the great collection premium wordpress template but the price much expensive to buy one…..keep up work dude..:)

  12. March 3rd, 2009 at 12:19 pm #Wordpress Training

    Just found this list and it is impressive! And so much to choose from… Any chance of a recommendation? - I really want a good looking theme (which they all are anyway), but I want something that is not too technical to set up and maintain as it is for a client. Current preference is for the Revolution themes as they look so clean.

  13. March 3rd, 2009 at 3:56 pm #PremiumWP

    If you like the Revolution Themes, now StudioPress then get them. They are good looking themes and can be customised. Otherwise WooThemes are also very good very and highly recommended. Thesis is also recommonended as it has a lot of customisation options at the back end. In the end, you should just get the theme that will best meet your needs.
