   I seem to agree with you that the list will probably get longer as time goes by, but there are still a lot of themes missing. Lets say it’s got a few basic ones now. I will check at the end of this month, maybe there will be more.

   Thanks for sharing this info, I thought it would still be sometime before that happened

   lol the number of premium-quality *free* themes is so high I don’t even get the point of people trying to sell their themes

   That’s really good news. Although I’m surprised I haven’t heard more about it. It seems to have been overshadowed by the announcement about themes having to be GPL. Which is funny, because the major concern people seem to have about GPL’ing their themes is that they can’t make money off them (which is a misunderstanding anyway). So it’s nice to see Automattic providing a way for quality theme developers to get the financial incentives they deserve.

   @gimli I find that premium themes in general are more innovative/achieve more than free themes. That is, if you want a very attractive but standard blog theme, you’ll be able to find a heap of amazing ones for free. But if you want a theme that equips your site to act as a blown CMS or to performs a very specific function beyond just being a blog, then paid options are generally superior to the some or none available for free.
