I don’t use the Thesis theme as it doesn’t support SocialSpark and PayPerPost which require full articles on the home page, and not truncated summary articles. I like your buttons on the left side of your blog with home, twitter, contact and subscribe.

@Dragon Blogger,
Thesis theme can displays full article articles on the home page, just as what you see in my blog, I display the first post in full articles, so I think it’s not a big deal to play with SocialSpark and PayPerPost. Thanks buddy, but I not sure whether it can be done in other wordpress theme. ;)

Lee is right about the Thesis theme, you wont find a better alternative theme for any of the blogging platforms that rivals this clean framework with massive SEO benefits. You can see two examples of mine at http://grievousbodilycharm.com and http://one3rdnerd.org

Cheers, keep up the good work Lee.

Hi Lee thanks for your efforts to collecting these wonderful Thesis tutorials, especially displaying Adsense inside an individual post, applied it and succeeded, it’s my first time using Thesis I am totally noob but I feel easy since there are many great tutorials available for free in the internet. One more thing, if you don’t mind, could you share to me on how to highlight admin comment box in threaded comment area. Because I am clueless on where to modify and spent hours to find the CSS code yet found failure.

Thank you

Ryan
