As the calendar ticks over into October, PSDTUTS's sister site ThemeForest has made it to 1 month of age! We're very excited about ThemeForest's potential over here at Envato and I'm working hard to build traffic and content on the site. So I thought I'd take a moment to show you 21 of the neatest themes so far. There are plenty more to look through (200 more in fact), but these ones are my favourites!
Business Web Templates
Business is always going to be a popular category and it incudes the highest selling template (Justin Scheetz' drop-down enabled, multi-pack extravaganza) as well as a couple of templates from me that I somehow managed to find time to make. So here are 8 of the best:
Elegant & Clean ($15) Joefrey
Business Professional ($20) JScheetz
Natural Earthtone ($15) Maximus
Real Estate Theme ($15) Me!
Pinstripe Corporate ($15) raymacari
Elegante ($15) Joefrey
FreshCorp ($15) Me!
Blue Company ($10) illu
Portfolio Templates
Another popular file category on ThemeForest is the Creative / Portfolio section and it's not surprising as there are a few very impressive looking portfolios. As with all templates you'd probably want to do some customization to make them yours, but they certainly provide a good baseline.
One Page Portfolio Site Template ($15) onuro
Creative Portfolio ($12) Joefrey
NightMedia ($12) JJenz
Scrolling Portfolio Theme ($15) simnor
General Admin Skins
When you develop web applications like custom CMSes or other client apps, it's always good to give the backend a nice, presentable skin. Our Admin Skins section has a growing set of clean, presentable and customizable skins to theme your next app.
CSS Admin Theme ($10) mip
LiteAdmin ($12) reidknorr
WordPress Themes
I love WordPress, most of our Envato sites besides the marketplaces themselves are running on some version of WordPress. In fact the new TUTS theme which is in testing right now, is WordPress to the max! So this is perhaps my favourite category and includes themes to turn WordPress into a magazine, a CSS Gallery, a review site and much more.
Evo Magazine Theme ($30) liam_uk7
Showcase Gallery Theme ($30) WPPowered
GamePress CMS Theme ($40) DanHarper
Brazen Blog Theme ($25) Gurnk
Our Community Theme ($30) Kailoon
Renkli Blog Theme ($12) peex
WoodWorld Blog Theme ($15) JohnBA

( )Brandon Roach October 2nd
Nice templates, and cheap too! Thanks for the information Collis.
( )Reid October 2nd
Great post Collis! I feel honored to have my template in this 21! You have done such great things with Envato and you deserve all of the success that your having. Now several designers are getting opportunities as a result of Envato and personally I want to thank you!
( )jite mobility October 2nd

( )General Specifics October 2nd
Great templates!
( )rybaxs October 2nd
This business web templates are great! you can never say exquisite, extravagant or eye-filling templates… it’s so cool and simple!
( )Dude October 2nd
Yawn. PSDTUTS has become a vehicle for flogging other Envato services….
how about a few more decent tutorials… the rate of new tutorials has severly dropped off over the last month or 2
( )insic October 2nd
hmmmm cool, and the price is so affordable. looking forward to see more templates in themeforest.
( )Dainis Graveris October 2nd
Nice to see in those works - the latest trends - what means modern design - simple, calm colors - good overview!
( )Mark Abucayon October 2nd
very attractive templates, Good Job guys.
( )Asnake October 2nd
cool and simple thanks guys — at least i have something to site when arguing to my boss — i like such styles a lot —
( )Jake Toolson October 2nd
the “our community” theme is pretty much replicated from WooThemes “Fresh News”. Might want to check it out.
( )Long Beach Web Design October 2nd
This is really neat. For templates that cheap, the quality of the files are great. I hope to purchase some of these in the near future.
( )daniel October 2nd
really nice job there! congratulations!
( )Shane October 2nd
Bit of an eye-opener - like others have said, the prices are very cheap really…
I’ll head over to the forest and take a good look around.
Thanks.
( )diesel October 2nd
Well done, some great pieces there!
( )John October 2nd
Nice collection.. but a couple of them aren’t particularly neat to be honest
( )Lawrence77 October 2nd
Themes are very Nice and cool and clean…
good in colors..
But Collis is come for Advertisements…
Where is the designer Collis? :X
LAWRENCE
( )Lawrence77 October 2nd
TO Collis: you announced five-part series on Photoshop Typography, but you posted only two in that series…
Where is the remaining FIVE
With regards,
LAWRENCE
( )Lawrence77 October 2nd
sorry i’m weak in Mathematics…
Where is the remaining THREE?
LAWRENCE
( )Greg October 2nd
Lawrence.. come on.. you’ve posted multiple times in every article here and you haven’t added anything of substance. Collis created this website as well as all of the others on the Envato network and I’m sure he has a lot of work to do, so he probably doesn’t have too much time to be making text tutorials, especially right now.
( )lawrence77 April 28th
yeah I agree now!
( )Romi Dumitrescu October 2nd
3 la zece mii (that means: 3 for 28 cents ^^)
( )Zach LeBar October 2nd
great stuff collis. please keep more posts like this coming, its great to see what’s good at themeforest.
( )Loco October 3rd
Great stuff.
( )I have a question on something else….
Why haven’t we have heard something about the “Solving Poverty” contest?
gNcWebmaster October 3rd
ShowCase Gallery Theme is very good. Thanks…
( )Justin Scheetz October 3rd
Hey Collis, thanks for featuring one of my templates! ThemeForest is going great so far, can’t wait to see how the rest of the year goes and what the plans are for the future.
Thanks again for such a great design outlet.
( )Aaron Irizarry October 3rd
Thanks Collis!! these are great… Keep it up! Hope to see more continued success for you and the envato network
( )dario October 3rd
very interesting…
( )but themes for rapidweaver!? do you think we will see on psdtuts?

Thanks for including my GamePress theme Collis
And I’m always amazed at some of the fantastic designs others are making on TF.
@Jake Toolson: Most magazine/news themes follow a general structure which works well. Our Community is not a copy of FreshNews at all, and Kailoon is a very talented designer.
You also emailed me accusing my GamePress theme to be a copy of FreshNews. HOW? The only similarity is that they both use WordPress…
( )sc October 3rd
terrific themes, i am this close to chucking trying to design a few of my own and buy some themeplates so i can go on with my life…lol.
for folks like Lawrence, (and sometimes even me), i was wondering if your company could give your network of wonderful sites the ability to have editable comments, at least editable for the time the window is open or logoff. i know i have posted and found i have misspelled or forgot to add something.
( )MH October 3rd
This is great to see them in one place like this. It looks like the feeds are working. I kept getting 404’s when I clicked on links from the rss feed in my reader but they all came through today. Is the initial view when you click on a section , like wordpress, showing the newest themes?
( )Lawrence77 October 3rd
no answer from COLLIS still now

Hi Collis.
Thanks for including my Showcase theme in the list, much appreciated!
There will be a reloaded version of the theme coming soon with much more admin features for total control and some pretty neat layout options.
So if you liked the original theme then keep an eye out for the next
Cheers

Hello,
reffering to this article about website templates:
What do you think about the Photoshop-PlugIn “SiteGrinder”
http://www.medialab.com/sitegrinder/ ?
Do you think its a great web authoring tool? And can I also make big and complex websites with sitegrinder (with different layout grids, with navis and subnavis)?
Would be great to hear about your experiences…
( )Onur Oztaskiran December 18th
Gee I didn’t know mine was featured. Thank you guys!
