Creating a unique blog
Wednesday

These days, a blog is an integral part of a communications strategy with your market and customers. I’ve got a few blogs, both personal (scrambledminds.com), experimental (centerpiecesforweddings.info), this blog (Ditch the Office) and soon to be business focused (furcle.com). Now, I’m into technology, but I’m not interested in coding themes for WordPress (my preferred blogging platform) so I generally have used the default themes or freely available themes on the web, but these typically have limitations and you can’t modify them without knowing what you’re doing.
In that light, I’m trying to identify some themes for WordPress that will allow you to create a theme without ANY coding knowledge at all. I want the ability to modify the look, feel, structure, design and anything else from a gui interface – No CSS, no HTML, no editing in text editors and uploading files. What I want is something like Squarespace, but for wordpress. Check out what you can do at Squarespace here.
I’ve found two potential options for creating a theme without needing to know how to do the complex behind the scenes stuff:
Do you know of any more? Do you have a preference for these? I’m concerned that I can’t do all the style changes through a gui with Thesis. If I try one I’ll let you know.
