So far my experience on WordPress has been satisfactory.
I have enjoyed the flexibility of the themes available, I feel this functionality allows anyone with few skills to create a smart looking personal blog very quickly. One thing that has irritated me however, is the fact that many of the themes seem to carry style tags such as borders and drop shadows on images, see below for example…
… obviously when an image carries a transparent background this border does tend to look crap ruin my layout intentions. I have tried to add html to remove this but with no luck (yet). Therefore one improvement for me would be the ability to further customise the style of a particular theme, I do realise CSS editing functionality is availible at extra cost.
I have been impressed by the functionality of the Dashboard menus and how each field can be moved around to suit the individual, much like offline applications. I feel this ability supports WordPress as a fully fledged ’2.0′ website.
So far posting blog entries has been quick and easy and I will post further problems/discoveries as they arise!
Tom.
