Really nice themes. Brian Gardner also released some of his premium wordpress themes for free over at his site. Thank you.
Brad Thomas, 25 January 2009
Uh, you probably haven’t visited his site for some time now, but none of his themes are free anymore.
Bill, 05 February 2009
They are if you went there and downloaded every one of them during the 2 weeks he offered them for free (like I did)!!
Rob, 29 January 2010
How about posting them somewhere then! :-)

Hussein, 23 January 2009
I am using Versatility but I don’t think it is WordPress 2.7 ready since comment thread is not available in the theme. I just used intensedebate instead.
Graham Smith, 23 January 2009
ANother wonderful collection of links, ideas, themes and themes. YOu have a awesome site by the way.
I am always interested to see how the free premium themes start merging the lines with paid premium themes.
I love the look and simplicity of Equilibrium, but thats just my clean uncluttered preference.
Elegant Grunge is also neat, love the clean header.
Thanks for sharing, sounds cliche but its true.

Great finally a list which doesn’t sum up the themes everybody does. Great job!

Great List!
The new update to WP to 2.7 has been great!
But your right, there are some themes that don’t work right. I think its great that you have targeted a list that is particular to 2.7.
I am in the midst of putting the final touches on a post to my blog with a list of plugins and themes and I will now also add a link to this great list.
Thanks again Noupe!!
