Yeah, you know ... like, every Wordpress theme uses CSS, so all you have to do is find one that has a decent layout and then in the CSS, change the font and font color to whatever you want and the background to whatever you want and that's 90% of making them match. The rest is just little tweaks.

Cooool, thanks. Yeah, maybe I'll just try to roll my own. Or at least take one that has the features I want and modify it so it looks like the BBS some.

I usually do a combination of the two -- I find one I like and then change it up a bit. I'm running Mandigo on my Wordpress Blog and I've been pretty happy with it. It came with something like 10 or so different colored templates. I picked the blue one and then changed it up slightly (different header, and hacked up the entire right hand column).

I can't remember exactly where I found it; typically I just Google for "Wordpress Themes" and end up with one I like.

EDIT: Here's an old article I bookmarked: How I Learned to Build Wordpress Themes. Several good links in there.

I haven't found one I really like in, like, ever! Where do you guys get your themes? Do you roll your own?

I guess I would like something cyan-colored, but man, trying to search on that has gotten me nothing. Can anyone recommend a Wordpress theme repository? The search terms I use aren't helping!
