  1. So I am a HUGE fan of Chris Wallace and his themes. My site needs a definite face lift. It would seriously make me do back flips up and down the street if I were to win one of the licenses. So I would love to win. Thanks for the chance to enter!

  5. Holy Molio, that’s a sweet design folio! I know its better to give than to receive but in this case I would gladly accept the lesser blessing to be on the receiving end of this theme.

  7. I already won a theme from @chriswallace and I didn’t know what to do with it. #FAIL! I don’t deserve to win anything webdesign-like!!!! :( boo! Why!

  8. @chriswallace rocks as a designer and as a guy. He built my website back in the day and I’ve done nothing with it b/c it wasn’t quite so intuitive. I’d like to learn WordPress and have some great integrated features, but not without a rockin’ theme to boot. Good work- good luck!

  9. I want to start up my blog again thats why I would like to win this. I am no computer tech though and wonder if I will be able to do it. Oh well, its worth a shot! These are so professional looking, I would like to enter.

  11. I’ve been wanting something classy for a design blog for a long time and this theme really stands out as professional and functional. Heck, after using it a bit i might like it so much that I’ll decide to replace my main design portfolio. thanks for the chance to win.

  12. I’m just redesign my portfolio online and I will really appreciated starting from your theme to build my marvellous site!!

  15. Awesome theme! Its a perfect fit for my corporate identity portfolio. Hopefully I’ll be one of the lucky few. Thx.

  16. I am new to the envato marketplace and just getting into web design. I have been lucky to find all you great people to follow on twitter, the tips and links are so fun and helpful. So I suppose this would be awesome for me to start out everything on the right foot with a good portfolio layout. Especially because I have a job almost finished!
    Thanks for the opportunity, and keep making great stuff!

  17. I LOVE this theme. I sure would use it to 99 billion percent of its awesomeness! (ok that doesn’t even make sense)- If I won, my awesomeness would increase ten-fold!!!

    • I think that sounds like a great idea. Let me know what you’re thinking and I’ll make sure and update the post. Maybe even extend the contest.

      • We can provide 6 months of free site hosting to the winner. Will be our (not available online) single site hosting package. That way this gorgeous theme runs fast… and secure.

  20. This theme would make my wildest dream come true because I would no longer spend my days longing to return to high school and finally stand up to the bully who eventually married and divorced the girl I love. It would give me the courage to seek her out on e-harmony and finally show here I’d become a true career man in an important industry. I would then send a link to my old nemesis with a photo of me and my new wife on my brand new blog using this theme.
    Just sayin.

  21. My cousin is actually wanting to get into graphic design, he’s good with Powerpoint but just starting out in Photoshop. I know it’s a bit of a leap between the two but he’s just needing a nudge to get out into digital media proper.

    I’m looking to set him up a blog/portfolio site and am searching for a nice template (until he gets awesome and makes his own) and this would be great.

    So, that’s why I’d want it really :) @StalkerB

  35. My sister is a graphic designer but has fallen out of it after school. I really want to give her this theme and get her to put her portfolio back up online and do more graphic design work. I don’t know if it would do it for sure but I think it would be inspiring to her and hopefully get her back into what she seemed to love.
