WordPress becomes more and more popular, so there a lot bigger demand for free and premium themes.

Very nice list of themes. Although I do use a free theme on my blog, I strongly suggest newbs or those less familiar with WordPress use premium themes especially if it is a business site you’re creating. All premium themes are standards compliant and offer support and you will save far more time buying one you like than you would by constantly switching between elegant looking free themes because something maybe out of whack.
