Today, I have been busy reviewing Premium Wordpress Themes just to find out what are the differences between free and paid themes.
It’s not just about how much it cost, it’s whether worth the money, the features and usabilities. I need to know about the style and whether the theme fit my personality.
Besides that, I also need to think about how it could fit into current theme I am having and also the current setup that I am having now.
The thing I worry about is, will all my hardworks to setup the plugins and widgets get undone when I install new theme.
Ok, so I summarized the below considerations :
1. Cost
2. SEO functions
3. Number of columns
4. Color scheme
5. Destroy current setting?
6. How much damage if destroy previous settings?
7. Efficiency of loading webpage, fast loading?
8. Support
9. Ease of upgrade and update patches
10. Widgets affected?
11. Plugins affected?
There are just so many questions and answers which I will further find out tomorrow. before too long, I will be having a brand new theme which will suit my style and my personality.

So far, I have been very happy with this theme except for the problem with the Search result. No matter what result you are getting, it will show ‘Sorry, not found!’ message which is annoying. But I will look into this problem to see if anyone got any solution.
For those who have installed this theme, looking forward for your opinion on this jQ theme.
I made it, now my wordpress blog is having the new theme jQ. It’s actually so simple to apply the theme.
There are 2 ways to implement new theme. Automatically within the wordpress admin panel and manual method.
The first way is I click on appearance option at the left panel of the wordpress admin panel. Then click on add new themes. Find your favourite theme, click install on the theme you would like to use for the blog. The automatic way did not work for me as there seems to be account right issue when trying to access from wordpress blog admin.
Thus I apply the manual way. I went to the wordpress theme download site and find the jQ template. After found it, I clicked on the download button. I saved the jQ.2.0.zip file to my temp directory.
Whether you are going to use ftp, cuteftp, or any other software to connect to your hosting, extract the theme to folder /wp-content/themes/
Then go to the wordpress admin panel for appearance, click themes, you will be able to see the new theme. If you unable to see it, check the correct path where you have put the directory jq. Click the activate link or simply the picture of your preferred theme and voila, I have done it.
Wordpress has made it so easy, wordpress is really good, I love it.
