WordPress Theme Question/Survey

[FrankDickinson]

Hi Good Folks!

I'm getting ready to set up a new WordPress site in the Internet Marketing world (yup, another among the millions) and I'm looking at various Themes.

I've looked into Thesis,Headway and Vigilance for starters.

I'm wondering what Themes you guys are using and why you chose them.

Lynn, What theme is Clicknewz? - I didn't see it listed anywhere.

Thanking everyone in advance,
Frank

My theme is a custom design.

Prior to this design, I was using the PressCut Theme, which is related to the Cutline Theme.

Thanks Lynn!

Hey - enjoy the heck out of your Saturday - you deserve it!

Thanks I'm staying in and staying warm! lol

Excellent! Me too. I have a house full of sick people now.

A quick profile question: I've uploaded a profile pic, but can't seem to get it to show up. It's resized to 100x100 and is around 23k.

It shows up in my profile, but not in my posts.

Any ideas?

[Lynn Terry]

You need both a profile pic AND an avatar - they can be the same. The avatar is what shows up on your posts.

Perfect!

Thanks.

Thanks Frank. I tend to skip over videos - guess I better go back and watch it ;-)

I've only used free themes so far, and seem to have no problem finding them that work for my needs. I like the Magazine Basic, which has a very adjustable newspaper-style main page. Simple Balance 2.2 is another very adjustable one I like, though it has some design issues I've had to tweak, like a mandatory sidebar graphic. I love ComicPress, which is designed for online comics, but I think has other creative-- and marketing-- possibilities. I suggest doing what I do and set up a subdomain for trying out WordPress themes and plugins before going live on you main sites.

That's a great idea Wade - I hadn't thought of it.

Thanks - appreciated!
