> I'm a designer who periodically works with ThemeForest themes for my clients. The problem with most of the themes is that they look good but you realize how badly they really work only when you attempt to adapt a site to them. Completely agree. They (and themes from other sites, and rather too many open source themes) have been designed with no thought of customising beyond the options on the "Options" page, have badly structured templates and CSS, and rely on graphics in such a way that changing the look of one part has a knock-on effect on others, and needs extensive CSS rewrites. Rant over. TLDR: themes are great if you use them as-is.
