Hi Thanks for the great theme
I suggest creating an ecommerce skin
Nick @ Themify

Ecommerce skin is a good idea. Any specific suggestion (i.e. what kind of shop should we design for)?
Federico

I love the design that frank bofy has!! If you could do something like that would be amazing!

I’d love to see a skin that accommodates direct imbed video, direct imbed audio and blog capability. I run an entertainment website that has all three. My themify site is currently under development, so the one listed below is in a another builder.

I agree with Ian Gordon. I would love an education/university theme.
Kurt @ Themify
Sep 12, 2016 @ 15:49
Interesting :) Do you have any sample site layouts you have in mind? This will give us a better idea on what kind of template to create.
Colin

I don’t have any samples just yet, but I’m very interested in this and would be happy to chat further.

Agree with Ian Gordon. Would love to see an education theme. Need one for a k-12 school. Can suggest prairiecrossingcharterschool.org as an example I’m using to build for my school.

A photography related ecommerce setup similar Zenfolio to sell prints and proof photos. The header needs 2 menus. A main navigation and one at the top of the page with ecommerce related links like my account, cart, etc… That would be awesome ;)

It would be great to see a company skin: cadastral engineering, planning (projects), and so on.

I would like a version of Ultra where the navigation bar can be a different color than the rest of the header and be full width.

More ecommerce Skin
Gabriel Traistaru
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:05
we can all use an minimalist business theme or a minimalist eCommerce one. One that can be easily adapted, with less complicated features. Thank you!
Also a theme for selling homes could be interesting.
Scott
Sep 12, 2016 @ 17:13
Definitely a minimalist skin that one has complete control. If I wanted to duplicate the look and feel of Air BnB for a client, or if a client wanted her site to mimic Uber, the tools and freedom would be there to do that.
Heino Moeller
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:11

A skin for coaches or trainers, with an emphasis on eLearning/LMS such as Learndash and Membership
Craig Westwood
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:23
I’d like to see a “techno-skin” – one that features gadgets/equipment and their technical data using tabs (or fold-away sections). This could be for e-commerce use (i.e. a camera or hi-fi shop), or a parts catalog (for electric components maybe), or for anything requiring quite complex product data to be represented in a compact form.
Quite a challenge, but I know you guys can make it happen…. and make it sexy!
Irene Penrose

I think it would be great if there was a store front skin for online shopping!
Conrad Marsili
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:37
I agree that a dedicated e commerce site would be a winner.
James Hart
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:45
I like the ideas for more ecommerce skins. I also would like to see an education one, but I think there aren’t a lot of people making university websites all that often. However, there are many teachers making sites for their classes.
Holger
Sep 12, 2016 @ 14:51
First: Great job with all the improvements and the new designs.
What I am missing is a newsletter blog – financial adviser blog – travel blog etc. style
with a more narrow slider or thumbnail slider on top with either small header or transparent,
then slider style below and
setup option below with column setting large for text/post and a narrow column for sidebar down for categories, latest news etc. and main area for posts in one main column scrolling down
the images – header can be changed by us for news, travel, financial etc. – and therefore one design can then easily be used for a multitude of that kind of news blog style
thanks

Education skin is also a good idea. We’ve logged this in our idea list.
John Carlson
Sep 12, 2016 @ 16:32
Yes, absolutely! Classroom or teacher skin would be great!
Bruce Diller
Sep 14, 2016 @ 01:05
Perhaps the magazine theme or newsy theme as skins might be the start of an educational theme.
I’m working on site that is part education and those two skins would work for me.
Thanks for a great product
Max Crowe
Sep 12, 2016 @ 15:45
How about an INTERNATIONAL skin? We do international meeting production, and there is a whole industry of professional meeting planners (PMO’s) and related businesses like ours that could sure use that worldly, slick, even edgy global image that I’m thinking of…
Paul Chaston
Sep 12, 2016 @ 15:47
A pre-school/afterschool/kindergarden skin would me really good especially as in the UK there is currently an explosion in this type of service alternatively a Brexit Support Company site skin may have potential
Paul Davis

One thing I’ve been searching for and cannot find is niche directory themes/skins. While there are many directory themes out there they are all built around multiple categories. A simple, single (or minimal) category based directory and location theme/skin would be awesome.

I suggest an e-commerce skin with several shop layouts.
The e-commerce can be for woocommerce, but shopify also can be a nice option to build.
Nick @ Themify
Sep 12, 2016 @ 19:04
Thanks for the suggestions!
To those who suggested education/school skin: do you guys have any good reference sites?
P.S. Please provide sample themes/sites along with your suggestion if you have.

I would like to see a “Local Business” Theme – with an area in the top header or nav section for an area to enter physical address and a large phone number (or adjustable parameters) and the ability to add or modify a contact form in the header (perhaps over the slider).. I’ve been trying out various themes for local businesses, such as doctors office, dental office, or any local business where customers would be promted to call or contact.
Peterppm
Sep 13, 2016 @ 08:31
Plus 1 on the Area above the Top of the Header for Contact details.
All my commercial clients ask me to do that.
Nick @ Themify
Sep 14, 2016 @ 22:52

A simple blog site like this one: http://wpdemos.info/felicity/
Or a lifestyle site such as this one: http://avada.theme-fusion.com/lifestyle/
Both would be a help with where I am heading with my sites. I’m still new at all this so anything that is easier is always appreciated

Information is too spread out:
Hi
These are great and will be of good use to me,
however they are all with lots of white space and large Post displays.
I would really like you to think about a skin with more compact posts built into the design.
Like bbc.co.uk , where a large number of posts are presented in a small amount of screen space, without any loss in readability or usability.
My clients keep asking me for this and I have added it to your suggestions,
but every new design you come up with spreads everything out so much.
Nice eye candy but too little information on a single screen.
A lot of UK news sites manage to pack in at least 4-6 posts in the space you set up for one.
This is especially noticeable on smartphones.
Thank you, Peter

How about an online dating layout? This is an evergreen niche, after all. Maybe with the ability to embed a sign up form in the homepage header and possibly have it integrate well with a social networking plugin like buddypress (for those adventurous enough to try building their own dating database from scratch).
Just a thought :)

A theme for photographers full width design and optimized for panorama images, especially a portfolio for virtual tours with 360 ° images would be awesome.

E-commerce. I don’t know what “trendy” looks like for 2016 but I just had some tech support work done on my website and the the guy commented that my site with its tweaked Shopdock theme was “so five years ago” looking. Granted, I customized the theme myself and I still love it…but still, ecommerce is what people are doing these days so it might be nice to see where the look is going next.

It would be nice one theme of collaborative projects, as well as http://catarse.me.
People post their projects, definiem the value they need and whether or not to reward those who donate. Then the visitamte can choose to help by donating or not.
Bruce Diller
Sep 16, 2016 @ 01:08
Although it is not a theme skin idea …
I think it would be great if there could be multiple side bars that could be displayed by choice, kind of like the way in the magazine theme I can select different top menu for different posts.
Kadence themes allows to create/name multiple sidebar and then choose which one to display .
different categories to display different side bars.
Just a thought and a wish.
Thanks

It would be good if the music theme contained a player that could be inserted anywhere on the page instead of only at the bottom. Also if you could have multiple “Buy Album” link fields ie: audio CD, Download Digital album, Download album liner notes pdf or disable the “Buy album” field. Also perhaps be able to size-resize playlist height/width. Thanks
Kurt @ Themify
Sep 19, 2016 @ 15:43

I think a Real Estate property skin would be absolutely awesome. Here are some others I think would make for great skins…
Membership skin (a membership site)
Real Estate Brokerage and Property so they match well
Education like a school or service that teaches
A sport skin that can be for any sport team (thinking like for my kids’ baseball team)
City or Municipality
