WordPress Themes
So far I’ve created a few wordpress themes that are lightly modified versions of the default theme. If you’d like a wordpress theme that works the same as the default theme but has a different look you should take a look at these.
All of these themes have comments written in the code for you to place ads and google analytics code.
Chrome
Chrome is a theme that presents a metallic grey feel with the sidebar in the same place as the default theme. It also has a spot for you to place a banner at the top above the content. To place your banner at the top you simply need to make a folder called images at the root of your site and name your banner file banner.png.
EX: yoursite.com/images/banner.png

Ram
Ram puts a blue background behind the white content with rounded corners. The sidebar on Ram is moved to the left site of the content instead of the default right side. It also has a spot for you to place a banner at the top above the content. To place your banner at the top you simply need to make a folder called images at the root of your site and name your banner file banner.png.

For both of these themes you’ll need to to into the theme editor and edit the header and footer. In the header you place your ad code or menu items (or take out the menu). In the footer you place your analytics code if you have any. Both places are marked with comments.
Disclaimer
None of these WordPress themes are tested against IE 6 and likely don’t look very good in that browser so use them at your own risk.
