Sometimes themes can be a gamble—just like purchasing the services of any web company—so it is important to check out reviews and references before signing your name on the line. I’ve had great luck with all of the Woo Themes I have used so far, but there are a lot of people out there making WordPress themes for purchase now. I don’t like to pick on anyone, but it just gets to be a problem when a theme is blocking the display of a user-installed plugin or widget, forcing me to redo the CSS or change the code to make it work. This is just frustrating for me as a developer, and frustrating to a client who has to pay for a simple modification that turns out to be anything but simple.

Of course, if you do get stuck, I’m always here to help. And Mark, go ahead and tweet your heart out now.
