After much hesitation, I purchased Thesis. In short, it’s fantastic. I’ll likely upgrade to the developer’s option after I get familiar with it.

Well, compare a blog running Atahualpa to this blog, which runs Thesis. From glancing at it, I would say that Thesis seems to be far better-looking out of the box. I don’t know what Atahualpa’s backend looks like, but customizing Lawyerist was primarily a matter of checking a few boxes, and copying and pasting a few bits of custom code.

In looking into themes for wordpress this weekend, I came across Atahualpa. This theme, which is free, appears to have a lot of the customization tools as well as a lively forum. I wonder how this compares to Thesis? I haven’t been able to find any review on the internet comparing the two directly.

We get a lot of our photos from creative commons licensed works on Flickr. Each image is credited on the bottom of the post.

@Sam: I may be getting too off topic, but where does one find these artworks and photos for websites? Can you point me in the right direction? Like you, free and open source are my preferences.

@Jake: Great to hear it! The artwork is not mine, but adapted from something I found. The rest is my design, though.

Glad to hear we are helping!
