    Hello everyone,

    I have just got my blog up and running and I am having trouble finding a new theme for this Blogging Tips blog. I could really use some help. Here is the website. http://www.probloggingtips.com/ I know that I also need a logo, but I think I need to pick my theme first. What do you guys normally do first? Pick the logo first and find a theme that matches it? Or pick a theme and make the logo match that? Here are some other Blogging Tips blogs just to give you guys some ideas.

    http://www.problogger.net/

    http://www.bloggingtips.com/blog/

    So what do you guys think? I really want to get a contest started for the logo, but I can't do it until I choose a theme. Please help me out?

    Do you want to look for Free Themes or Paid Themes?

    Try Elegant Themes then. You have 70 over themes to choose from. For only $39. Go to WPWebHost where you can get it for only $29.

    Yeah, I have been all through their themes. I just can't seem to find one that I think goes well with what I am doing. If you notice on all of of those websites there is no slider or big splash page on the front page. Its just the list of latest posts.

    You can't upload an custom designed theme at free wordpress blog, you have to be a premium member, or buy a domain or intall wordpress on it.
