The list below has WordPress themes we have tested, used, and vetted.  We also checked to make sure these themes get regular updates and have been used recently.

A WordPress Theme is a collection of files that work together to produce a graphical interface with an underlying unifying design for a weblog. These files are called template files. A Theme modifies the way the site is displayed, without modifying the underlying software.   This is similar to picking a template or theme in Word or other software programs.

We have divided up the themes into easy and intermediate.  Easy means that it doesn't require much customization out of the box.    Intermediate means that the theme has a lot of customization options and will most likely need some work out of the box.  We don't recommend anyone trying any advanced themes and don't have any on this list.

Responsive means that the theme adapts to mobile browsers.

Clicking on the name of the theme will take you to the WordPress Theme Repository where more information about the theme including features, the last time it was updated, ratings, and more.
