Can we get some sort of live preview option to see the same site with different bootstrap themes, similar to csszengarden? Would be very helpful to see how one similar site will look with different bootstrap themes.

Thanks!



That's not a bad idea. Wouldn't work for everything though. For example, when the theme uses custom classes or components that aren't part of Bootstrap. But in general it would be a very handy way to gauge the differences between styles.


It may compel theme writers to adhere to a standard and stretch what they do to make it more apparent in your marketplace that their themes will require as little work as possible to integrate.

Thanks.


This would be awesome. I bought a theme off of themeforest the other day and they essentially wrote a mini-cms in js that would have been way to much work to tear apart and turn it into a static site.

This morning, I'm working on adding a grid framework to another theme I bought off of themeforest. That's the one thing I hate about themeforest is you can't see the "bones" of the theme before you buy. I've bought 4 or 5 themes off of theme forest with about 3/4 of them being of decent quality. With decent quality being the ease at which I can modify them for my own needs.
