17 Specialty WordPress Themes
Published in WordPressOne of the great benefits of using WordPress is the wide variety of themes that are available for all kinds of purposes. As WordPress has become more popular as a CMS rather than just a blogging platform, specialty themes have also become increasingly popular.
About 10 months ago I published a collection of 20 specialty WordPress themes that I had come across at that time. Today I’d like to feature another 17 specialty themes, all of which are free. Over at DesignM.ag I published a list of the top ten premium specialty themes.

Great article
Thanks for the list
This is a neat collection. Although most I have already seen, there are 4 or 5 I have not, especially the contact one and that later portfolio themes.
Even so, I love having these ready made ‘topical’ collections at my disposal, and you just keep coming up with some of the best ones.
One theme above I am going to be now using, so thanks.

Graham,
Glad to hear you found something that you’ll be using.

Hello!
Thanks a lot for this collection. Some of themes look attractive. I’m going to use one in my work and my brother too. I just dont like the Sharpfolio, it looks agressive IMO.
It’s very interesting and useful site. I love it.
Thank you. Lily.
Few of these are even new for me, I’ll bookmark these and for me the last portfolio page is the most eye caching.
Revolution themes have been my favorites for a really long time now and I’m looking forward to trying out the new open source Revolution themes. Also, I’ve been looking for something like LaunchPad, so thank you!
