Judyth Weaver Makes the Move to Genesis
Am I doing anything else these days? Do I sense a trend here? If no one twists my arm to make it not Genesis, I'm going to use Genesis.

With my recent infatuation with StudioPress' Genesis Framework, I thought I'd try to see if I could do what Lauren wanted--a non-Genesis theme--with a Genesis theme.
Rooftop School's website was built in Homestead. Ouch.
Appro Supercomputer Solutions needed a blog to accompany their main corporate site. With Gabriel Gasca at the project management helm for the Appro team, we built them a solid blog on the Genesis framework.
Kenji Oshima had an iWeb site. They look nice (not surprising, coming from Apple), but they're limited in features and not very easy to maintain--at least compared to a content management system.
While her old site was fine--and even built in WordPress--it was time for an upgrade to the Queen's castle.
Hmm, let's see, how can we get that into the HTML header of the site? It's going to sound crazy (hold onto your hats), but it's often easier to completely rebuild a site using WordPress than to fiddle with some HTML in an unknown environment.
Susan Strouse needed a site that was editable and hosted somewhere that was reliable and accessible. With WordPress + Likoma.net, she was all set.
I knew that StudioPress had put a few Genesis child themes on ThemeForest, but I didn't realize there were non-StudioPress-built Genesis child themes there. Just a handful for now, but hopefully more to come!
StudioPress just released version 1.6 of their Genesis Framework for WordPress. The fact that they have an update at all says quite a bit. Here's why.
Jim Benning has a new creative outlet: Taco Shop Style.
Genesis Simple Hooks basically let you put content, code, or whatever you want into places that only developers have dared gone before.
I had used the Genesis Featured Page in a widget, but then I realized it really needed to be a Featured Post. "Aha, what do we have here in the widget area? Genesis Featured Posts!" Lucky me.
This plugin lets you edit the three areas in any Genesis theme: the post-info (byline), the post-meta, and the footer area. Normally, you'd have to get into the PHP files, find the right spot to edit what you're looking to do, save, upload, check, oops, edit, save, upload, check. Now it's all in the WordPress admin: click, save, done.
Craig Ackerman needed a site for one of his services: San Francisco Home Buying Consultations and Seminars.
