As with all of their themes, it is also built on the WooFramework that has very highly advanced SEO controls as well, to help you optimize pages for specific keywords as well, and has great modern styling as well.

It is not very often that a theme such as this one is unleashed, considering that this is more of a web solution rather than a plain and simple theme, all that I can say is that it is about time that someone took the lead and created such a theme.

Now, one of the core elements of any good real estate wordpress theme is that it is capable of being location based. In this theme, the Google Maps integration is second to none, along with the flexible page templates that come with the theme that allow you to advertise properties on the theme.

The Theme Has Multiple Styles As Well - Click The Image To See For Yourself!

Just some of the themes in the Estate WordPress Theme from WooThemes:

• Advanced Search
• Featured Slider
  
• Custom Post Types
  
• Multiple Layouts
  
• On Show Properties
  
• Google Maps

Lets not forget all of the usual WooThemes intergrations such as the WooFramework, advanced admin area, cross browser capabilities, and even localized language translations.

Simply put, and I am being quite blunt in saying this, it is about time that someone stepped up to the plate and delivered a theme like this. Now all you have to do is grab a copy before the price goes up. Not that I can confirm this, but being such a great web solution, this is going to sell like hotcakes, and I would seriously get this theme now before they even consider rising the price.

Believe me, I know the feeling. I own Thesis, Headway, Genesis, ThemeMX… you name it, I have owned it, and have tried it, and as much as each of them really do have their own place within my library of themes here, different purposes and so on, each of these themes really do stand out above many other themes out there. Why? Because they are flexible, they are easy to use, and they are maintained.

So, What’s The Big Issue Here?

I’ll tell you what the big issue with almost anything is. It costs money. Yeah, that is a pretty big problem if you ask me. Why? Because you have to be certain that its actually right for the job. Fair enough. Lets get started.

ThemeMX is not a typical theme for WordPress (Click here to see what I mean). Lets get this one out in the open already. What it is, well… its more like a framework that extends the use of WordPress, and makes it work more the way that YOU want it to work rather than the way that the theme designers intended.

This is why people buy frameworks rather than themes these days. Think about it this way – since WordPress was first released many years ago, has Matt Mullenweg ever given thought to adding SEO functionality to WordPress? Nope. That is why a framework is a good investment, because the theme makers are hell bent on adding the functionality that people actually want to see.

That, and most of these themes have great communities that really like to help each other get the most out of the theme as well. You have to actually buy your own copy of ThemeMX to get access to their community though.

What’s So Special About ThemeMX?

As I mentioned earlier, it is a framework that serves to extend the functionality of WordPress, plus act as a theme at the same time. Oh, and its kinda pretty too, regardless of which browser you use to view it. See a demo of ThemeMX in action by clicking here.

If youre looking to advertise on your blog, the framework has a feature that they call “Instant Advertisements” which allows you to simply paste in your code that your advertising networks have supplied, and you will start serving ads. This is something that many themes just do not do. Luckily, ThemeMX does the job, and does it well.

If you want to offer a newsletter on your bog, or start recruiting leads to a mailing list, the “Squeeze Me” function allows you to add a customizable optin or squeeze form to any blog post or page. Very handy, and much better looking that those ugly templates that you get from Aweber, that’s for sure!

Oh, and lets not forget customization. I totally hear you when you say that you dont know HTML, CSS or PHP. Neither do I. That’s why I love using ThemeMX. I dont need to write a single line of code – I just use the in built customization panel, which gives me more than enough room to change the overall look of my blog without having to get a degree in web design.

That said, if there is something tricky that I want to get my web guy to work on, the theme also supports custom CSS modifications as well, but you’re probably not going to need that. Whether you are a designer, or a code newbie, the theme just works.

Is It Really Worth it Though?

That was the question I asked at the start, so I really need to get around to answering it.

Frameworks are very user specific – if you like the functionality, then you will get a huge amount out of the theme. As for my experience with the theme, I have had no problems with it. It updates regularly, meaning that it is compatible with all versions of WordPress as they are released. The functionality just works perfectly, and the theme looks good.

Not much else I could ask for really. So lets be blunt for a moment. I work for a living online, and my business relies upon the stability of the platforms that I use, whether it is solution (A) or in this case, ThemeMX. I trust ThemeMX as a solid platform, it works for me,  and that is why I am recommending that if you are sitting on the fence right now, you stop thinking about it.

Before I go on too far, consider this. What are you going to need in order to create a website dedicated to video games that actually works. See, WordPress is a platform suited to Blogging, not reviews or anything else.
This can kind of get in the way. Well… if you allow it to. Here’s the thing. In order to start a half decent video game dedicated website, you can use WordPress, but you are going to need a theme that is designed for that purpose from the ground up, and has the functionality to support such a site.

Consider What Functionality You Will Need?

Apart from reporting general news and other topics, your website will not be complete if you do not have the ability to do reviews and offer a scoring system. Sure, there are a ton of plugins available for WordPress that allow you to embed your own ratings into each post or page, however… the issue with many of these is that they are designed to look one way only, and in most cases, they look absolutely terrible with the theme that you actually want to use.

Good news – GameNow WordPress theme features a top notch rating system that is built into the very theme itself, that allows you to rate games on your website, in a style that actually works with the overall design.

Does The Navigation Work?

Take a look at IGN for a moment. Now, apart from being one of the most popular video game websites on the web, what is the one thing that you can see on page that almost all video game review websites use?

Navigation room. Lots of it!

See, if you want to write about video games, there are a ton of platforms that you will need to write about, and lets face it… if your navigation lacks the room and “user friendliness” that it deserves, then your website is going to suck big time.

Thankfully, GameNow (Check out them theme in action here!) has a unique navigation system that is easy to set up, and can display both pages and categories in the exact way that a video game dedicated website needs to.

How Easy Is It To Customize?

Are you a coder? Do you know PHP, HTML or CSS? Probably not. Should you know it? Well, it should matter really – you just want to get a website up and running, and have it look as good as possible as quickly as possible, right?

Apart from the fact that the GameNow theme looks quite stunning out of the box (Check it out here), it is also compatible with the traditional iOS browsers (iPhone and iPad), which is absolutely great, as the theme allows people to really get access to your content on the go, no matter where they are. As we move into a mobile age, this single feature couldnt be more important if you tried.

Oh, and not to mention that simple design modifications are quite easy with the custom admin panel, regardless of whether you know CSS, or dont know a single line of code.

Out of the box, you can make the GameNow WordPress theme look fantastic, regardless of your skill or expertise.

So, Is It Worth It?

If you’re actually going to start a video game blog, for one… I am jealous.

That is an entirely different story though…

That said, if I were to ever find the time myself to maintain a blog of that size, I would quite happily ensue my trust in the GameNow Theme for WordPress.

Why? Because it works. It looks great. It offers the functionality that I need – whether it be reviews, comments, navigation, or in buit SEO functionality.

However, this post is not about me. It is about you.

Is it worth you investing your hard earned money in your very own GameNow WordPress theme? That is entirely up to you.

Do you like the look of the design? Do you like the functionality? Do you want to use the theme on your next project?

If you answered yes to those questions, then I highly suggest that you grab your own copy from http://www.WPnow.com

Recently, I managed to get my hands on the WPremix WordPress theme. Look, I test a million and one thees these days, running this site certainly does have its benefits, and I kind of made an impulse decision to go ahead and purchase this theme, I had already heard all of the positive shit chat about this theme, so the idea of parting with $75 to get my grubby little mitts on this theme didn’t really phase me, even if this was for the single use license only.

First things first, on the home page for this theme, they do make some very bold claims (as do most premium themes!). Either way, I will let you read for yourself:

“Bundled with more than 50 strategically designed and coded custom static page templates, the theme enables everyone to publish small sites in minutes saving weeks of time, maintaining top notch standards compliant quality.”

Now, I will be the first to admit, the claims made about the WPremix WordPress theme are indeed very bold, 50 templates including 10 home page templates, 20 inner site templates, another five gallery templates, and a ton more. So, if we pull out the calculator and have a look, that is a whopping 45 pages included, of course, with some roundups included. At the end of the day, you could also include the stock standard WordPress blog page, a contact page using a plugin, which brings the numbers up slightly.

Also shipping with the WPremix WordPress theme is a large handful of header and sidebar templates, which are located in a separate folder to the theme itself, of course, if you counted these templates, this brings the total count up and well over 50, although with the overall quality of this theme, this is not all that critical in my decision to go ahead and purchase this theme. It is the quality of the included templates in this theme where this theme gets it strength from, and the intricate selection process that went into selecting them for the final package.

If you pull apart the templates and examine them closely, it is very obvious that a lot of thought went into the overall layout of this theme, with the CSS cross browser compliance being very obvious. Lets not forget to mention how flexible the CSS styling actually is, it is literally like a box of building blocks that can be styled in any way that you like. A web designers dream. Even if you are not fluent in CSS, outsourcing this kind of work would be much cheaper, as this theme would involve much less work to customize.

Finally, the Remix theme has a support forum which stands behind the product. I found the forum support a bit different than most other forums. It seems to be modeled more after a private technical support forum than an open discussion format where any and everything is discussed. This has never prevented me from getting answers to my questions regarding the theme. I actually observed response times of less than an hour in many instances when a question had been asked. I noticed that the moderator will tactfully redirect you to support links if you do not ask questions directly related to the theme, i.e., do not expect to get support for setting up Google Analytics at the Remix forum.

So, a final call to action. You are going to either love this theme or hate it. It comes with a full refund guarantee of course, so you are more than welcome to go ahead and try it out risk free. I recommend it, especially if you are trying to really bridge the gap between a your blog and your content based site. The WPremix theme has impressed me a lot, and I plan on putting it to good use on a full production site shortly, in the meantime, this is a great theme that will change how you approach creating those content based websites.
