Here is 2 of many that I run, but these 2 are probably 2 of my favorites design wise. I hope they don't fit into the 'lazy' category of wp builders. It's certainly not difficult to get unique looking and functioning sites with WP, it just requires some imagination and time. Both are still 'in progress' but growing just fine.

Nice work!
Thats essentially what I do too..grab a free or premium theme that is closest to the layout I want..then mod the CSS stylesheet, change colors, background, fonts, sizes, add a custom logo, whatever plugins needed and if need be I add a div or 2 for extra content or ads and that usually covers it.
It's a huge time saver and frees me up to work on other things instead of slaving over a custom hand coded page.
