Here’s what Thesis Blueprint owners think…
I just picked this up and wanted to say thanks for creating such a great resource. I’ve only recently started using Thesis and I can see that it’s extremely flexible but only if you have a good knowledge of custom CSS. This is going to give me the shortcut I need! Dave Ovenden – http://inbizlocal.com
Just purchased your blueprint & it’s a beauty, just what I was looking for. I’ve recently been posting in the Thesis Forum trying to find out how to do specific custom Thesis styles however I’m struggling to get the right answer so your blueprint was a nugget for me. Good stuff. Cheers, Peter

I purchased this book and I’m not even halfway through it but I found it really helpful. The bonuses are great – especially the blog planning sheet. It helps you outline the fine print and brand of your site before you get to work, which is helpful. I personally found the step by step instructions and code being organized into one simple place extremely effective and helpful. Lauryn P
