I have used two different themes on this site now. The first was Cutline and the second was Revolution Blue.
Both are very good themes and come well-equipped for a Search Engine Optimized website.
Still, I wanted to have a more Magazine-like template. After looking for one that was created for the WordPress versions 2.7 and up, I found the new Mimbo 3.
A new addition, this free magazine theme was built with the ability to use Child Themes.
Changing the style can be done without touching the theme itself. Just change the child theme and all functions from this theme will be there.
A big advantage of this is that if you have heavily customized the theme via child theme, a new version can be installed and will work without you touching any of the core files.
I know, this is a new way of customizing your design with child themes, but I will be looking into these options very soon. :-)
My Frontpage is not like the standard Mimbo, since that is really built for a blog page, which this site is not.
How about you? Do you work with WordPress theme frameworks yet, or are you still waiting to see how it evolves?
My friend sorry but i really can’t see where on your amazing website is explained how to build website with wordpress.Lot’s of boolshits around and nothing proper is showed.Sorry Boss!
@milan: I hear you, this site was first set up to show people who are already familiar with WordPress how they could use it for more then just blogging.
You comment made me realize that I need to extend the site to give you (and others) a complete guide on how to setup, configure and organize your content and build your own WordPress website.
The first instance of this site was aimed at showing people how you can change and use WordPress themes to look like a “normal” website.
Thank you for you comment, I is a wake-up call for me :-)
