    Hi all,

    I am looking for a Wordpress theme for my new blog and was wondering if anybody could offer some advice as regards places to look for one.

    My first attempt led to me to find a theme that was, shall we say, a little dodgy and not recommended for use in the Wordpress forums, so I need a reliable site to find themes, video game related if at all possible.

    Thanks in advance.

    Stuart

    Yes but nothing really video game orientated, been through all 40 pages!!

    I am looking for something video game related which has provision for a few ads on the pages, though preferably not adsense.

    There are some decent themes on there but what I don't like is all the 'footer intact as is' business, that was the problem with the last theme I tried, apparently there is a potential for some sinister coding in there.

    If there is one thing guaranteed to ensure you have a really unproductive day - it's looking for wordpress themes.

    Here are some free video game type themes:

    Cool Video Blog Themes For Wordpress

    They say they are cool - not sure what you think.

    This is my favourite one though from elegantthemes.com eGamer Theme - Just another WordPress weblog but this is a "premium theme" but it's only $19.95 for access to all their themes for a year. Quite cheap if you consider how much more time you might waste if you keep looking!!

    And here Kirsty wrote about removing cryptic links from footers - don't know if it's any help?

    Very good advice, although:

    If you don't want links in the footer of your theme then design your own.
