I have purchased the new theme called Thesis. There's a bit of a learning curve but in terms of flexibility and customization, Thesis gets very high marks. Check it out at http://diythemes.com/thesis/ 2 things I really like about it are: Custom CSS style sheet. You can leave the out-of-the-box style.css file alone and make all changes to the custom style sheet. PHP Theme hooks. There's a plug-in called OpenHook: http://rickbeckman.com/thesis-openhook/ See here for more info on hooks: http://diythemes.com/thesis/how-to-customize-your-site-intelligently-with-hooks/ It's all a little "over my head" at the moment but hopefully, I'll be able to move down the learning curve quickly and then have much more control over my theme moving forward.

Stick with the black and white and red all over. The two columns and use of different text sizes/styles for each column is very easy to digest. If I had a blog, I'd totally rip off your look.

Thanks for using my theme. Not one person has used it out of the box yet, which is the reason why I created it. Minor tweaks take a while. I am still tweaking mine, telling myself I am moving on to building another blog and just posting at the present one, but I can't help it. You’re welcome, Bob. Thanks for using my theme.
