OK, so before everyone starts sharpening their knives I would like to make a couple of points:
- I am not a closet WordPress fanboy ;) I have just been playing around with WordPress theming a bit lately, and these are some (hopefully) fairly objective observations.
- Drupal is in competition with WordPress. If Drupal can learn from WordPress in areas where WordPress is superior, and improve upon and surpass WordPress in those areas, ultimately it will help Drupal kick some WordPress butt.
All that said, here goes:
1. Pictures sell
Start by looking at the main theme download page on WordPress and compare it to Drupal's main theme download page.

Which one of those do you think looks more inviting to a designer trying to decide where they should spend their time, or a new user looking to develop their first site?
