The landing page theme I’m currently using displays nothing but a large image, the blog name and a (rather skimpy) arrow down to content.

I’m afraid that this is likely less functional than I’d prefer…it would be pretty easy to drop in here and miss the actual contents of the page and thus all of the links to ‘real’ content.

I’m going to take a look at available free themes and see if I can find something that meets my needs better. I’d be willing to pay a one-time fee for a theme that did a great job, but I’m not convinced that I’ll find one readily.

I am likely to start digging into PHP and WordPress theme creation sometime soon to see is I can modify one of the stock themes to get the job done. I’m not certain that I’ll be willing to spend the required level of effort at this time, but it is worth some initial investigation.
