    I usually do it on the side now but I can easily make enough to replace any part time job with only a certain degree of effort. heh.

    These are your accurate ballpark figures :p

    WordPress: $xxx
    Joomla --> Advanced to Expert: $xxx to $x,xxx
    Drupal --> Expert: $x,xxx

    The easier platforms = More competition
    The expert platforms = More $$$

    Income depends on how much time you spend on creating these themes ! Usually you can get 40$-100$ per coded template ( which is quite low price, as you need to spend at least 5 hours to get a professional quality ) ..
    There are tons of offers - just go and grab your money .. Coding WP themes is an easy job ( in case if you know PHP and CSS ) !

    I think the coder should be versatile and open to code a general website too because you can't simply ignore people approaching you for a simple website design.

    Does some people want to offer web hosting with her plans ?
    Maybe it should be interesting to provide wordpress services + hosting.

    If you can setup a wordpress installation with design, plugins and articles send me a PM ;)
