Nice collection of themes. Really like Eptonic, very minimal feel to it. Picnic is great too, though quite memorable, it would be easy to spot another site using this theme.
I agree that a solid business theme can be very difficult to select. But it is more then creative artwork and emotional drawings. A good theme has the necessary Add-ons for solid SEO as well.. Could you elaborate a little on Wordpress add-ons in your next article?
Wonderful round up there, Thanks for sharing.
Great list, I do like Echo theme, something simple and modern
Thank you
I’m really liking Callisto and Core Photography for my Photography site… incorporation of the new Wp3 features is making me drool…
theme forest is definitely a great source for wordpress themes, more so than its commercial counterparts
so good! it’s best theme.
I think it’s very important for premium themes to include a suite of widgets, page templates and shortcodes to help users create professional looking business sites without taking up too much of their time. The great thing about using this built in functionality is the user can create more advanced looking content that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the site.
Jon you are so right!
This is what I’m looking for!! Especially, Vetee Magazine is so beautiful.
I agree Vetee is awesome. However if you like it you will also like Striking and it is so powerful (use it myself)… it is in the article. Another one I own myself and that you will like is: infocus.
Great article, I like it.
Thanks for the feedback wangarron
Great post! Thanks for sharing this.

I personally like the unite theme. It is great that someone could compile all these things together to make it easy for us bloggers to find.
