I like the “featured article” functionality of the Victoria theme, however, I do not like the layout implicit in using the blog engine versus the page engine for actually writing them. I Like having the most-recent article in the main header, though, as well as the previous articles in two-column format next to the blog. Please look at “wuthered post” versus “wuthered page” to see… if “feature” and sub categories could lose the internal sidbar, and place it at the bottom (so it can still be useful, and the page still be indexable and categorizaeable), I think that would be the best hybrid solution.
