So you just picked up a copy of the wonderful Thesis WordPress theme framework, installed it, and don’t quite know where to begin. Sure you can read some basic tutorials and instructions and get a simple site going, but we all know Thesis is more powerful than that. That’s why I’ve compiled this list of [...]
I recently did a survey both here and on the Third Tribe forums in an attempt to figure out just what it is people want from a premium WordPress theme. We all keep creating but nobody ever really asks the question. Every day somebody comes out with a theme with an options page that’s bigger [...]
This is just a quick update to let everyone know that Theme Thesis is now on Facebook. If you follow the Theme Thesis Twitter account you’ll see that it’s filled with web design resources and goodies, and that’s what the Facebook account will be like.

Being a huge WordPress nerd I have a section in my RSS Reader just for WordPress development blogs so I can keep up to date and continue to learn every day. I figured I’d share that folder with you. Here you’ll find [...]

I’m not here to chastise anybody for their theme choices, but the three biggest reasons I see for not trying Thesis seem to be based on misunderstandings, so I [...]
When it comes to seeing Thesis progress and become even better than it already is, I’m caught in two minds. The better it becomes, the less I earn.
