Hello,

Does anyone have more themes available besides Gustavo and the custom Bootswatch?

Thanks for your help.

We've done it ourselves for our sites.
I expect you know but a unique look can be achieved by changes to layout and style mostly with css in the user.css and any necessary core code changes can be done within the Templates folder.
PRO Supporters and Certified Developers addons have provided the functionality changes.
I think that DIY changes have become so much easier and achievable with recent Phoenix so maybe that's why template/theme designers have not speculatively come up with template/themes for sale.
Of course, ask for help here to DIY or ask a Certified Developer to do it for you.

For an example of a self-done theme try http://nationalvnwarmuseumfriends.org/giftshop
This was done by moving some modules display positions in admin and about 32 lines in user.css

I was looking for themes for bootstrap to see if there were any new ones about and found this site. Not many in there but its only a case of either adding to the user.css file or creating a new one as part of other changes. I did notice that many of the css files are in a similar order so its easy to mix and match what you need from other themes on the site. I pulled out different button colours and it was easy to produce a unique looking site.

I got the colors, I want to arrange them in a way to make them attractive. Meaning placing the colors in the correct places and choosing the most perfect colors to compliment the primary color. Bootstrap sort of limit color choices.

Yes, I know. I believe my hold up is my lack of color coordination. I haven't seen your other sites but I like your honey site.
