Needless to say that I LOVE THESIS ever since I installed it for the first time. But today – after 2 months of in-depth usage – I feel even better. Actually I feel like either marrying the Thesis Theme itself or – as a nice substitute – Chris Pearson, the known mastermind behind Thesis and diythemes.com! Hell, I feel good…
My first days with Thesis
Day 1 – I wasted some hours with stumbling upon Chris Pearson’s work. I was not moving away from my desk because I had to breathe. Just breathe. In and out. That took me about five hours.
Day 2 – After recharging my power cells with some sleep (and dreaming about the possibilites I purchased along with Thesis) I sat back into my chair and tried to get going. (Still trembling)
Day 3 – I managed to customize some things and was still wasted by the fact that I had been wishing & praying for something like this precious WordPress Theme since I heard about blogs.
Day 4 – I fell in love with Thesis and obtained this very domain. Feeling so sure about great ideas flowing and having the tools to maintain them, I was just plain happy.
Day 5-10 – Setting up a new blog with Thesis is as easy as flushing the toilet; you will see results at a glance. Tweak a little here and screw a bit there. Everytime I screw too badly I just upload a backup of my custom.css and keep tweaking. It’s fun. I was delighted.
Day 11-20 – I surfed the web to gather more information about customizing and making my blog(s) look great and special. As you can see it worked out just perfectly. Found the great collection of Thesis hacks & customizations on ilovethesis.com yet?
Day 21-30 – My first month with THE WordPress Theme has been the best month I ever had while developing blogs. I was ready to perform some hilarious magic on my other blogs as well.
Hint: The added benefit of putting Thesis on every domain that I want to begin to sparkle came along with my developer option which I did not hesitate to purchase. Neither should you – go for gold and » Get Thesis!
Day 31-45 – Another two wonderful weeks spent with customizing, tweaking, hacking and uploading great websites. Due to Chris Pearson my overall workflow has increased in efficiency about 200% – I’m not kidding at all!
Day 45-today – As I grew a professional blogger some time ago I of course wanted to make the most of now (and tomorrow). Sometimes – that seems very, very far away now! – I wasn’t far from quitting my job as a webdeveloper because I felt so crippled with most of the “free” themes available.
I knew that there would come a day sooner or later that had to be my personal mark of change. So, I asked myself, which theme shall I purchase? Which one is good enough to fit my needs?
Then I came along at Chris Pearson’s personal blog (pearsonified.com) and clicked through some of his posts. I had seen his advertising before but I didn’t want to throw good money after bad by receiving complete garbage in the end. Who knows whether he is getting a precious gift or pure waste after clicking the Paypal button?! I was unsure, so I remained unhappy and still crippled.
After a few days of asking myself about the amount of time I was willingly flushing in the toilet I just got my copy of the Thesis Theme (Developer Option) and it felt right. Do you know that feeling? When you do just anything and it feels so – HELL, YEAH! – right? I knew it from well-timed decisions before so I also knew that something had changed the very moment I transferred my money digitally. No hiccups, plain & easy process. Installed my copy. No big deal after all. I LOVE THESIS
