I just started a new project to combine the Baltimore Heritage website with our blog and run the whole thing on WordPress. I've been looking for a theme that might work for both our blog and our static content (mostly text, some images, video). I'm definitely willing to do some customization for details/colors but I'd like to find a theme where the layout and interaction are basically sound. I put together a list of those that I'm considering and I'd really appreciate your opinions or suggestions if you have a minute to click through and look at a few of these.
Here is our current website, http://www.baltimoreheritage.org/
and our blog, http://blog.baltimoreheritage.org
**Update** Narrowed it down from 12 to 8. Any preferences yet?
