Good list.  Now if only commercial skins came with a free test or a 90 day guarantee.  It's often hard to guess what they'll look like with your content in place.

True, Jeff.
It is nice that seller can provide the ability for potential buyers to be able to do a trail version. But how do you do it with skin? I'm not a developer so I have no idea. But the alternative would be building a site that allows visitors to add their own content.

At Engage, we have a demo site for our potential buyers to explore the modules before they buy it.

Oops! Just broke my site today while upgrading to 4.8.4 because I didn't listen to my colleague, John Eimer. Hopefully to get it fix sometimes before next week.
