    Hello. We are trying to build a new website and would like it to look like (more or less in that direction) of a site that we like. It is called http://araborganizing.org/ (BTW: this is not a political message from me)..

    We are an educational site for liver disease (hepatitis C) and so we need something that is simple and easy to read. Anyways: the long and the short is that we thought that the araborganizing was attractive..

    All the childthemes I see or themes I find are designed more for graphics and sales.. We just want to educate people and keep them updated.

    If I was to use Genesis to build a site similar to araborganizing, which kind of child theme or premium themes would get me there?

    Any help would be appreciated. (we are also looking for a designer but our cash flow is not up to what many designers charge.)

    I'm thinking that News Pro might be a good starting point.

    Thanks for the quick reply. The problem here is that it is HTML 5 (which is okay for me) but I'm pretty sure my boss wants something WordPress so that I can hand over the site to someone who doesn't need to know how to do advanced coding.

    So, what would Genesis have in WordPress that would be "easily" modifiable... (you can translate that into some custom work for which we can pay... but we just don't have $10K to do this)...

    Ideas? Recommendations?

    Thanks CD
