About the "ePanel"
If you're familiar with some premium themes, you probably already used an option page: This page is very usefull to define your theme options without having to edit the code.
A few days ago, Nick from ElegantThemes.com decided to take his theme shop to the next level and create an awesome option page, named ePanel.
Nick asked me to review it, and to be honest, I was definitelly blown away. I have used Thesis on a few sites, and quite enjoyed its complete option page. But let me tell you, the ePanel is way much more complete than Thesis options page.

As you can see on the screenshot above, ePanel is full of options helping you to customize your theme. SEO, color schemes, Feedburner integration, layout settings... ePanel allows you to customize almost everything on your theme.
Right now, the ePanl is only available with the eBusiness, ePhoto, eNews, Bold, CherryTruffle and PureType themes from ElegantThemes.

the epanel looks awesome, but it’s difficult to write a review about something without testing it first
@pau: You’re right, this is why you can write about WpRecipes as well!
