Many are cookie cutter and require very little design.  Any of them however, can be modified to suit the needs of blogger with a mission.</p>
<p>I ran into a problem with the Featured Content Gallery not working properly.  It took about 2 days but I found that the KPicasa plug-in was breaking the FCG.  Keep that in mind.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve elected to switch to the Corporate Theme because the entire front page is widget controlled.  I&#8217;ve barely scratched the surface.</p>
<p>Check out <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=10214&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=18768" target="ejejcsingle">STUDIOPRESS</a> and let me know what you think.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[WordPress with the wp-e-commerce plugin is a better web presence solution than OSCommerce, PrestaShop, and Magento.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To review: Magento is the best, most functional and diverse shopping platform in the OpenSource world.  It&#8217;s also the most complicated and bloated.  When things go wrong, they go big.</p>
<p>PrestaShop is easy to use and install.  If you&#8217;re a CSS master, you can make PrestaShop look like it&#8217;s your own.  But, its slow.  The back end is extremely slow to manage products and maintain.</p>
<p>OSCommerce opened the door fo PrestaShop and Magento to make things right.</p>
<p>However, I believe that every shop owner must maintain a dynamic website and a blog site is the easiest (in my opinion) way to do that.  WordPress has matured into a fully functional storefront, business landing page, content management system and only lacks proper document management.  </p>
<p>WordPress with the <a title="e-Commerce for WP" href="http://www.instinct.co.nz/e-commerce" target="_blank">wp-e-commerce</a> plugin provides small businesses with every feature that the others have to offer including built in payment gateways, shipping, tax, downloadable content, etc.</p>
<p>For my money, the <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=10214&#038;c=ib&#038;aff=18768" target="ejejcsingle">themes at STUDIOPRESS</a>, formerly Revolution (2) Themes, with the wp-e-commerce wordpress plug-in is the right starting point for anybody, personal or professional, to build an audience and start selling right off the start.</p>
<p>In addition, I am a big believer in <a title="ShopIT!" href="http://www.shopit.com" target="_blank">ShopIT</a> for distributers to leave their shopping cart everywhere they go.</p>
