Shocked how?
Upstager.com is actually my own site for my consulting business.
To code a site like that custom would cost upwards of $10,000 plus.
I use themes, as do just about any other wordpress designer. You seem to think that using a theme is somehow cheating someone? I've had web clients take 2 months of back and forth, changing what they like, dont like today and back and that client ended up paying $4,000 for a site that should have been 2k. Had they hired someone to hand code the site I ended up building for them from a word press theme, it would have been $20k.
So, I'm not sure if you're just trolling, or haven't built websites for clients before, or what, but often its not the medium the site is built from but the time spent with the client to fine tune everything, changes, custom graphics and the like that merit the costs. If that doesn't sound fair, then you are of course welcome to do it yourself. Thats the beauty of it all, right? When you mess something up though and you white screen your site, I'll only charge you $500 to fix it.
