Pricing
The Flexx theme
from iThemes is offered at a very competitive price. You can buy a
single-use license, which allows you to use one version of the Flexx
theme (there are over a dozen versions, each with variations in fonts,
color schemes, etc.) on one blog. There is also a multi-use package
available which allows you to purchase every version of the Flexx theme,
and you can use those themes as many times as you want on as many sites
as you want. This is the best option for blog designers or people who
maintain multiple blogs and want to use the Flexx theme for all of them.
The fee includes unlimited access to the great tutorials iThemes is well known for. Many of the tutorials for the Flexx theme are available directly through your Wordpress dashboard after you install the theme. Additionally, you get access to the free support forums, which are very active and helpful. You also get lifetime access to upgrades to the Flexx theme as they are released.

Features
The
Flexx theme is offered in over a dozen versions. The primary
differences in each version are the color schemes, the fonts and heading
styles. Each version includes the same basic functionality including
the ability to modify more of your blog directly through your Wordpress
dashboard and through widgets than any other Wordpress theme provides.
It's not so much that the features of the Flexx themes are particularly
unique but rather the ease with which those features can be configured
and customized to meet the individual user's needs that set the Flexx
theme apart from any other premium Wordpress theme. For example,
changing the layout can be done by selecting a new layout option from
the Wordpress dashboard, and Google AdSense code can be added from the Wordpress dashboard as well!
Ease of Use
The
Flexx theme was developed by iThemes with one main goal in mind -- to
create a Wordpress theme that even the most novice blogger could
customize. That goal is achieved through the layout customization
options built into the Flexx theme that users can configure without
touching CSS code at all. The Flexx theme lives up to its promise of
being incredibly easy to use. To get an idea of how the Flexx theme
works, check out the iThemes screencast that demonstrates the FlexxLayout and the screencast that shows how easy it is to make graphical changes with the Flexx theme.
Bottom-line
The
Flexx theme is a great choice for both novice Wordpress users who want
to give their blogs a unique look as well as for blog designers who want
a theme that's easy to use and easy to customize for numerous clients.
