Small Potato, of WPDesigner fame, launched a brand new WordPress themes club this week that is either sheer brilliance or total lunacy.

This isn’t going to be your ordinary theme subscription service. This club will offer its members at least 12 brand new WordPress themes every year for the annual price of… $5.

You read that right. Members get at least 12 WordPress themes for $5. One of the best WordPress designers on the scene is going to offer everyone crazy value through this themes club.

The Deal of the Year?

Small Potato could have probably released a new premium theme once a month (read my interview with him about premium themes) and made a financial killing. So why not?

Here’s a quote from his press pack:

A large part of the $5 idea is making money off of users that would never pay for a theme in the first place by providing high quality at a low price and then invest that money in creating even better, top notch themes that were never available to the average blogger at a price like $5.

The Doors Are Already Open

The first theme released to the club is called Gossip. If you’d like to learn more about the WPDesigner Themes Club then visit the announcement page, check out the press PDF or, quite frankly, just go straight to the order page and give up the $5 for 12 themes in one year.

I wish Small Potato the best of luck with his new venture.
