They don't seem to have an ElkArte category.

Not even SMF has a category on Themeforest, but if you search SMF you will find some themes.
IMO themeforest is the easiest way to sell a theme

Beware that themeforest has a rather strange admission level - I tried a few years back to add SMF themes to them, themes that was more advanced than the (recolored)themes already there.(there are a couple I think, still). They were rejected with no explanation.

Hello @Bloc . Just noticed your presence here. You happen to be one of my favourite theme makers.

I had plans to change it, but I'm already way behind my schedule and I never found a way to change and keep the backward compatibility, so I guess 1.1 will remain the same "engine", of course some of the templates may receive adjustments, but I don't plan any overhaul (unless of exceptional circumstances). Also the default theme will remain the same.

A pity. It's ugly. (I recently gave the IP.Board a test run and now I'm spoiled when it comes to the (edit: grammar) loveliness of forum designs.)

But OK. Prepare for my first theme some time soon.

I kind of have to agree with that sentiment...
The Light variant, does need a bit of adjusting.

Now, the Be Social variant, on the other hand, is pretty decent.

IMO, Be Social needs a dark variant again

and should finally get rid of those old SMF-style buttons.

I'm not familiar at all with it. How does it work?

Really, really great.

Even the non-admin part is one of the cleanest I've ever seen; see http://community.invisionpower.com for example.

But the ACP is overwhelming. And it's even responsive! I want to marry it. <3

Too bad they lack BBcode editing support in their newest versions.

I thought the theming engine was great.

It surely is. There seems to be no way to make a bad-looking IPB theme. In opposite to ElkArte which all has themes that look like ElkArte...
