Here are 30 cutting edge Wordpress themes that I think are the best online right now and there are plenty of them. I change my theme so much and I’ve used almost all of them. I’m also in the process of designing a Wordpress theme for the public so keep your eyes open. I want to offer a few different ones. A couple for free and one Premium one that I’m going to design with a friend. He just doesn’t know it yet. Haha!

I’ve also listed resources and tutorials for designing with Wordpress.

wordpress themes for free…

Is there any advantage to blog with big blogging-platforms, which offer a blog for free? I personally like more to have my own domain, but I am not sure about this… any advantages?…
