I am making some good progress on upgrading the site from vbulletin to drupal. I was running in to some snags with converting it to drupal 6 so I switched to drupal 7 and it has been a lot easier. I'm starting to search around for drupal 7 themes that I can buy and slap on the site. I'm going to start posting themes I find on this thread just to get some feedback.

Repro theme

ewsCenter (Not my favorite but I like that it's mobile ready. Resize your browser to see how it adjusts on different device sizes)

I actually like the NewsCenter one. Mobile is a plus as well.

Yeah, having one that is good with mobile is kinda a key, since it seems like tons of people use that to get on here. At least it seems like I'm always seeing "damn Tapatalk" comments on a daily basis.

Yeah, I really want to go with a mobile theme but unfortunately most of the pre-made mobile ready themes I can buy would not really work for us. NewsCenter is definitely the best mobile ready theme I've found. I think it's polished enough that I could just change the few nit picky things I don't like about it later on.

And actually, the more I look at it the more I like it.

Just check it out on my phone and it's nice. Unless I luck in to finding something else before I'm ready to add the theme I will be going with NewsCenter.

I'm gonna have to see the theme with our content before I can really judge anything....

The one downside I've found with NewsCenter is that it is completely busted in IE7. But, I'm not too worried about that. Anyone using IE7 should stop. Immediately.
