Ironically enough, one of the hardest premium themes to find is actually not an excellent Content Management System (CMS), but instead a blog theme!

Woo Themes has attempted to help remedy this with their latest release, titled Blog Theme.   Here are the features you get with their latest release:

• Integrated Theme Options at the backend, which includes some non-standard, non-average customisation options
• A Twitter header banner showing your most recent tweet
• A nifty accordion sidebar, which displays only the content that the user decides to display
• Widgetized sidebar to allow you full control of what happens in your sidebar
• 5 vibrant color schemes to choose from

And here is a nice screenshot of the theme:

If you took a look at reviews from around the internet, there is a good chance that you would find that the most popular premium WordPress themes available right now are the themes over at Woo Themes.    Their design is excellent, the themes can easily be customized from the control panel, and they recently lowered their prices to be more competitive with the rest of the market.

Depending on your needs, the best bang for your dollar is definitely the very popular Woo Themes Club.  Rather than go into to much detail of why this is such as great detail, check out the following chart which explains it better than I ever could:

Here is some additional information about the Woo Themes Club:

Single User vs Developer

The only difference between the the Single User & Developer options are in the market we’re aiming for and the additional benefits of the licenses:

The Single User Subscription is aimed at single blog owners, who’d like to use our templates on their own personal WP-powered blogs / websites, but would like to change the design on there often. So both the 3 & 6 month Single User Subscriptions, will offer you a license to use our themes on 2 different domains concurrently - you are thus allowed to use any of our themes on two separate domains at the same time.

The Developer Subscription is aimed at designers & developers who would like to use our themes as the basis of their next client projects; or at online entrepeneurs that has multiple WP-powered blogs / websites which could use some WooThemes love. This subscription offers you a license to use our themes on unlimited domains concurrently - thus on as many websites / blogs that you own at the same time.

Note: Both these Club Member subscriptions include the use of our original Photoshop Source files for the all of the themes, which should make any modifications so much easier.

If you are still in doubt please refer to our FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions).

Future Themes

As subscription member, you will get access to all of our current themes (available at the time of your subscription), whilst also getting all the future themes we will release during your subscription period.

It is our promise & commitment to release a minimum of 1 new theme every month, but you can bank on that number being slightly higher every now and again. Our future themes will also cover a wide variety of niches ranging from personal blogs, magazine-style designs, CMS-type websites and designs for corporate use. You can thus feel assured that we will continue to blow you away should you become a WooThemes Club Member!

Over the past year, I’ve developed a strong affection for the premium WordPress themes released by the iThemes team.   They truly do a great job of filling the smaller niches or whatever needs the WordPress community has.

Their latest creation, the Flexx theme, is the most flexible WordPress theme ever created.  To back it up, they are advertising that this theme comes with over 1,000 possible layout combinations!

Other Flexx features include:

• Rotating Header Images – Easily upload your new header images and set the Flash-like transition effects
• Contact Form Page Template – The custom image uploader feature allows you to personalize your site with your own logo
• Plug and Play Graphic Changes – Easily change the look of your site by uploading new background images (setting every different combo with it) and setting the color through a Photoshop-like color picker.
• Menu Builder – Pick and choose what Pages you want in the menu navigation, including subpages.
• Search Engine Optimization – As with all our themes, we’ve built it to get you the best exposure in the search engines, and include a SEO panel to tweak some basic settings.
• Multiple Color Styles - This first series comes in two pre-built color styles (Bold and Canvas), but it has a rockin’ feature that lets you easily upload new background images (setting every different combo with it) and setting the color through a Photoshop-like color picker.
• Drop down navigation menu

To get an idea of one of the 1,000+ possibilities available, you can check out the Flexx demo.   Here are a couple screen shots:
