Expanding my Boundaries with Genesis Theme

About 3 years back, I knew nothing about WordPress.  It all started with an obsession to Blogging and I began learning WordPress as an end-user.  With a Programming background, I could not help but start exploring the code and getting my hands dirty.

Towards the middle of 2009, I got myself a copy of Thesis Theme for WordPress (affiliate link) and things change thereafter.  I started creating Custom Skins and accepting Customization Projects – and thus started my Freelancing journey.  Currently, I am pretty good at Thesis Theme Customization and if you don’t believe, you might want to take a look at my Portfolio Site.

Taking another leap into WordPress Theme Frameworks, I am getting into Genesis Theme for WordPress.  I am learning bits and pieces of it.  As a result, you will start finding Genesis Theme Tutorials at Thoughts Unlimited and I will soon being taking Genesis Child Theme Projects.

Thanks for all the support by you readers.  Keep watching and you have lots to learn!
