Sarah already had a lovely looking site, but was still running Thesis version 0.3 and WordPress 2.5 when we were up to versions 1.3.3 and 2.7 (Thesis v0.3 was pre-hooks, even pre-options pages!). I ported all her customisations and upgrade her blog for her.
This is what Sarah has to say:
Kris was incredibly prompt in completing the work that I asked of her on my blog and extremely reasonably priced too! She has also been quick to answer questions that I have had since she completed the work for me and I would highly recommend her services to anybody. The only thing I wish is that I had found her sooner!!
Miguel had some good ideas for customising his blog. With a focus on social web aspects, some of the customisations included adding Twitter to the header and creating a Social Home page to show more of his Twitter and Flickr timelines.

Kristarella will not disappoint. She amazing to work with and her designs speak for themselves. She worked hard, timely and in a professional manner. I was so pleased with her patience and willingness to work with me. Once you work with her you won't need to look elsewhere. I'm proud to say Kristarella customised my blog! She realible, trustworthy and is highly recommended!
Luis needed a clean design for Pretty Much Amazing that accommodated dropdown menus, editor info and tabbed content in the sidebar.
Luis wanted to say:
Kristarella is wonderful to work with: she is always prompt, precise, reasonable and she knows what she’s doing. She did a beautiful job of revamping my blog, and in almost no time at all. She was also great at answering my many questions about implementing I would recommend Kris to anyone looking for someone who wants great results in a timely manner.
Ryan is still in the process of setting up a network of sites using Thesis and the customisations are ongoing. What he wanted was to create his sites himself, but he needed someone to answer questions about WordPress and Thesis so that he could accomplish his tasks and learn along the way.
Ryan offered his opinion of my work:
I observed Kristarella for months on the Thesis forums and on kristarella.blog before finally deciding to hire her for some consulting on my blog. I was looking for someone who could help me and also teach me along the way. Someone who let me challenge myself but could be a safety net when I needed it. To say I was impressed is an understatement! Her responsiveness is impeccable. Her quality, knowledge and creativity is second to none. And she is just plain fun to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone that wants to make a dramatic improvement to their web presence and learn something along the way. Thanks Kris!
