Free Wordpress Themes for Download
This has been a hectic year and yet I have loved every minute of it. The sole purpose of this blog was to give back all the knowledge I acquired through the years as a web designer, for free. With that in mind I decided to collect some of my favorite Wordpres themes and have them available for download directly from my site.
As a designer, I come across hundreds of free quality themes and it’s only fair I pass them along to my readers. So download and enjoy! Check out the Free Templates section and let me know if you have any problems.
Currently there are only Wordpress templates available, but I will be adding free Joomla, Blogger and Tumblr themes soon.
Free High Quality Photos from PicApp
While visiting one of my favorite sites Lost Ball in High Weeds, I learned about a new site that has high quality photos to spruce up your website, called PicApp. I’m always interested in giving my readers access to valuable freebies for website building, so I immediately took a look and was pleasantly surprised. They have some of the best quality photos online, by far and they are all for FREE!
