How can I display WP themes to customers?

[danix]

thanks a lot for replying Jeremy.. I'll give your ideas a try.. ;)

You can view a demo of the effect here:
WordPress Expression (It's my development "Playground", so the theme isn't quite finished but it should do for this).

Slightly off-topic, but are you aware that your development playground domain name violates the WordPress trademark policy?

No I didn't know that. Should I terminate it immediately? I don't use it for business, though I did plan on it if I ever get to the point where my work is high enough quality. For now I just use it to test new ideas out. Please advise, I don't want to step on any toes.

I just clicked your link, and read the page. I guess I need to purchase another domain name and use it as the main DN, then I could use the current as a sub directory. It may be a few weeks since I'm a little strapped for cash right now, but I will fix the issue. I don't think it's a major concern right now. I don't promote the site, and it doesn't have much if any traffic. Thanks for pointing it out to me.

Jeremy,

Don't worry; I'm not the WordPress Trademark police - I just try to educate people about the policy when I see it being violated. :)

Usually, it is one of two cases: people who are innocently, unknowingly using a domain name with "wordpress" in it, and dirty spammers doing it intentionally trying to push corrupt Themes. (I do go after the latter with extreme prejudice, wherever possible, because they make my life considerably more difficult.)

I'm not part of the WordPress Foundation, and don't speak for them, but if previous MO is any indicator, I think WPF would be fine with you purchasing a different domain, and redirecting from the existing one to the non-wordpress containing one. I think they usually recommend getting a domain name in which "wp" replaces "wordpress", which in your case would be "wpexpression.com", which is currently available. :)
