Wonderful list ! Thanks you very much
Thanks for the mention of Agregado, and a belated ‘great job’ on the Noupe.com redesign. I do so much reading via RSS readers, I always neglect to notice design changes.
wow! this themes rocks. i love it.
The magazine theme really looks great, but they need much more work out behind the screens… Apart from that , I liked Massive Press
Stumbled
So many hours were invested in the Guzel magazine and its control panel. Thanks for featuring it..really appreciated. Good luck
Great!
thanks for sharing
thanx, I like Guzel.
I saw it before but i like it any way
Greetings
The themese look very nice but i wonder how they are for the user when trying to use them on a site?
What i have found is that many themes look very nice but when a user who is not totally web savvy tries to use them they are very hard for them to use.
Yeh they are great themes. It’s funny to look back at the tremendously boring stock themes you could only pick up a few years ago. But with Wordpress’ master success, everyone and his dog is out making themes!
the first one is impressive. nice job!
Truly lovely designs. I need to start a new blog just to use one! lol
These are truly some great themes and I have seen many more that people are selling that can’t even touch these.
You can easily surmise that the designers enjoyed the creation of these themes by the artistic depth that was utilized.
I plan on making more sites in the future and I will be using at least one of these themes if not more.
good themes but you dont have a unique theme when u use one of it.
so many great themes! thanks for sharing
Awesome list. The problem is not being able to manage enough sites to use them all!!
what a great list of themes. Please keep this type of information up. I really like it.
Wow! Fabulous themes. PLease keep up the great work!

Nice collection .. guzel is my favorite.
A good collection of WordPress themes.
The INFINITY one seems to have some coding error related to FLICKR integration.
Thank you for sorting these good themes.
enjoy
I really like All these themes, especially SubtlyMade, True Elegance and Coda. I am currently using MassivePress for one of my blogs and it works great
Not bad but “hight quality premium” is an exaggeration.
o nice ones, dear. they all look beautifull and popular..
i loved to comipile them .. they are all in my list toooo ..
wow, excellent collection
very nice collection, bookmarked - may come in useful one day!
I saw them around here and there, But it nice to keep a list on one place.
Nice Assembling.
Very nice designs. Thank you
It’s nice I like it!
Thaaaaaaanks for a wonderful post sweetie
I think I’ll shae the link to it with my readers!
Huuuugs!
See, one thing I really appreciate in your blog, is that when you post series like this one, I don’t have the “seen before” feeling.
Love ya for that!
I’m always interested in new themes (inspiration and just curiosity!) and I am going to check out the demo of half of the ones your posted.
By the way, have you heard of the Option Theme? It’s the free theme I used, by Justin Tadlock. I love it
Wow, there are quite a few on here that I haven’t seen before.
great themes tnks
Bravo
We change themes every once in a while just to keep the site new and engaging.
You never know what you feel about a theme until you actually put it on and wear it.
Many sites show off themes that are mediocre and some show ones that are pretty good.
You have gathered a collection that is pretty damn good.
These will help many sites out when the visitors come due to the professional and clean looks. The added functions are a plus too. One favorite is the Infinity theme. I run a comedy site but believe me, when you are picking out themes it’s no joking matter.
Cheers
To be honest, a lot of these are actually better than many of the ‘premium’ themes on offer.
Nice collection!
This is an awesome collection! Thanks!
Simple Balance 2.0 is one of my favorite WordPress themes, but that said your whole list is great.
What a beautiful collection, thanks a lot
Wow that is really an awesome collection. I personally love Outdoorsy and Simple Balance theme from the list.
Thanks a lot
Prior to seeing this post, I thought I knew about all the great themes out there. But I haven’t seen at least half of these themes before. Thanks for enlightening me and reminding me that I don’t always know everything

This is an awesome list.
Actually I tried a few of them earlier.
But the problem is it takes a lot of work and I can never get enough sites to apply them.
I think I need a theme spinner now.
Well done and keep it up.
