Just installed Wordpress on my server for the blog component of my site and came across graphpaperpress.com who make awesome themes for WP. I installed one and thought I could use a heavily modified version for the entire site. Then I started to look into WP frameworks: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/… What are your experiences with the main WP frameworks? Would you recommend any of them? I'm a designer NOT a developer and cannot write PHP. Is there a framework that I could work with just using CSS + HTML that would be flexible enough to make simple sites with?
Sorry it's not a question that has a definite answer, but thought there would be some well rounded advice here.
I'm more concerned about layout customization than having to fit what I need into a template. That's why I thought if I started to use a flexible framework for WP, it would serve as a good foundation to adapt to numerous layouts.
Thesis looks good, but is a premium theme (http://diythemes.com/)
Genesis is another (http://www.studiopress.com/them...
On the free end of things Thematic looks nice (http://themeshaper.com/thematic...
Thanks!
