    Somebody please help me I'm going crazy I'm starting a new blog and desperately need a professional slick business-like theme for wordpress!!!

    I've searched through at least 300 Google results and nothing convinces me :(

    I need the theme to include:

    Email subscription for feedburner
    4 Advert spots for 125x125 banners

    Anyone know of any secrets Google couldn't show me?

    Check elegantthemes.com, search for Revolution Office theme, and also check diythemes.com (for Thesis theme - sign up under aff if you want to). I'm kind of sure that you will find something useful on these sites, unless you're looking for a free theme.

    Not sure what you are offering... I've checked your link but don't like not knowing what it's on about????

    Elegantthemes.com is new to me! I like it, but it's not got what I want...

    diythemes.com as in the thesis one is a joke. It's nice, it's great but it's worth 9.99$ not more

    I´ll pay 1000 dollars for the right theme, I don't NEED a free one... I just want a smashing theme that's all!

    Ok guys I just want to say a general thanks to you all for your fast help!

    I have looked over all these sites plus hundreds more at least 2-3 times each.

    After spending at least a good 40 hours on this I have decided to stop because the project is getting delayed too much...

    I will most probably sign up with elegant themes, they appear to be the ones that are closest to what I have in mind and they are available now...

    As for the last few suggestions:

    I've come across this site at least 50-100 times over the years and still think it's the worst thing I've ever seen. A few years back I purchased a template and was shocked how lame they are and inflexible, so thanks but no thanks - never again! Plus I prefer promoting individual developers instead of big projects like that.

    For example Brian Gardner from Revolution is one I am proud of supporting with my business, he is amazing and worth every penny!

    Yea nothing really interesting there...

    Thanks mathias, not a bad suggestion but I need to just accept I can't have exactly what I want right now. Plus time is more important as well, I need to launch ASAP :)

    Anyhow your other suggestion is what I think I will go with so thanks to you again!

    The theme that I'm running on my block is called "Structure Theme", it's very customizable, and you can do so much with it. It's 100% free. You can see it in action on the site Marketing, Business and Technology News.

    I'm a total noob to wordpress, and I have to say that what I've seen with this theme is great. Plus, you can download more from the site as well.

    wow, Cbrooker thanks!

    I love it, it has all the things I need. It's lacking in modern look a bit, but its definitely along the lines of what I need! Nice site btw.
