WooThemes has released a new theme called Canvas, a theme that looks like it might be a competitor to the ever-popular Thesis.
Canvas is a “blank slate” theme, with minimal styling, that you customize by either creating a child theme and using hooks, or by editing colors, background images, etc. through an admin menu. So it’s kind of a blend of Thesis and frameworks like Thematic, Hybrid, and Carrington.
I think it has a good chance at competing with Thesis. The default design is better, and the pricing scheme is much more attractive. $70 and you can use the them on as many sites as you want, and it’s even GPL. Thesis, on the other hand, costs $87 for a single-site license that requires a credit link in the footer. Oh, and when you buy Canvas you get two more free WooThemes with the purchase…
