  2. I have used Wp-Framework multiple times and have had no problem with it. While I know PHP fairly well, it is still just styling elements and maybe copying/pasting the php or html to re-align it in the DOM. Super easy to work with.

  3. I found that learning how to do a child theme using thematic to be really quite awesome.

    Here is my post, with tips inside for those just starting out. I give an example in there that looks like this:

    <?php
  function calltoaction() {
     include(STYLESHEETPATH . '/calltoaction.php' );
  }
  add_action('thematic_navigation_below', 'calltoaction', 1);
?>

    And thematic has great support on the themeshaper forums.

  4. I’d go with Thesis because you can just do a lot of stuff in the admin section and if you need to go further, is not hard to find snippets of code to paste on the custom_functions file
