I wanted to create a custom wordpress theme but where do you start ? There are probably hunderds of websites that offer good tutorials, but I think this one really rocks ! Create your own Wordpress Theme and get a little knowledge about Wordpress as well. The template is based on the default Kubrick template.

Do you use Wordpress with a Widget ready theme ?
Then check out http://widgets.wordpress.com/ for some really cool widgets to use in your sidebar.
I found the music widget scrobbler on this site, and use it here now to display music I recently played with LastFM

There are many more cool widgets you can find on this site !
There are a lot of site’s offering Free WordPress Templates, but if your into website design you probably want to design your own template.
Here you’ll find some links to different tutorials showing you how to do it ;
