Thread: Thesis theme all it's cracked up to be?

I played around with a thesis theme on a partner bloggers site. He set up a dummy site to test out wordpress upgrades before he implements it on his live site.

Now I have a couple of issues with this

The framework is touted as being "absolutely amazing" and the "next best blog tool since wordpress itself".

However after playing around with it, I found to to be quite dull.

Yes it's highly customizable
Yes it's very simple.

And if you want that, that's great! However I found the theme to be quite boring.

Has anyone here used thesis before? what are your thoguhts?

Completely agree. It's designed for the layman so has to be as simple as possible.

I tried it for about 5 minutes to see what it was all about, and it's claims to be "the next best thing since wordpress" is extremely over-exaggerated.

Yes, definitely its highly customizable and simple, but its boring too. It would not attract enough visitors, because of the boring theme.
