I have checked some of ASP.NET MVC themes from Microsoft's web site but they are not very professional looking and classy.
Is there any web site that you can recommend in which I can find premium (beautiful looking and professsional) web site designs(themes) for ASP.NET MVC?
I've had great luck buying HTML themes from ThemeForest and using them in my ASP.NET MVC projects.
You might take a look at the MVC Design Gallery.

Currently I am using umbraco 4.7.1 and planning to upgrade to version 6. But I will only go ahead it it allows PURE MVC approach. Here what I mean is I DON'T want to use any of ASP.NET like master page for templates. Everything should be in MVC
You can create a site in Umbraco 6 using just MVC including layout pages and all the other MVC bits, i.e. not master pages.
The administration section of Umbraco isn't MVC though, but that just works as usual. I havn't tried to add any MVC admin sections myself yet.
I'm building a pure MVC site in Umbraco 6, it's my first MVC site but it's all pretty much like the MVC book says.
When I create views etc. in Visual Studio, sub folders don't work well in the Umbraco admin section, it doesn't do sub folders very well. Also you have to set up your own version of the application start, which is no real problem but apart from that it's all sweet.
Currently I use Umbraco 6.1.3 and master pages are there. You can use old ASP.NET approach or MVC approach.
I would like an existing ASP.net MVC4 site to showpartials views from Orchard CMS. Is there a way I could have multiple ASP.net MVC4 sites talking to one Master Orcharch CMS website in a different domains?
I DO NOT want to create ASP.net MVC4 site as seperate module and integrate it into Orchard CMS website. I would like to have on Master Orchard CMS and have other ASP.net websites to show partial views of Orchard CMS. Is this scenario possible with latest Orchard CMS website or is there any other .NET CMS systems that supports this scenario?
MVC 4 is only supported in Orchard in version 1.6 and you should upgrade to 1.6.1 for security reasons.
I am pretty certain that what you are asking for is not in line with how Orchard is designed to work - and hence is not supported.
Very simply put the website IS Orchard CMS and MVC projects ARE modules within it; making a master is silly when modules are extensible.
A possible solution to your problem is to create some web service (AKA master) that services other Orchard sites.
Better still, decouple your base website application, and enable the parts you need on a per site basis.
i have a working web form asp.net website build in asp.net 3.5.
i want a QnA section or pages or module in my website.
i have searched for cms in .net which can fulfill this requirement and can be integrated with my existing website (not in MVC) but have not found a suitable one.
can u guide me some cms for this.
If you have usercontrols in your application, I would suggest that you use dot net nuke. You can easly convert your usercontrols in DNN modules.
I have created ASP.Net MVC 2 application. To manage the content on ViewPages I want to integrate with Content Management System.Is there any such CMS?
You may take a look at Orchard CMS which is built on top of ASP.NET MVC. There are also N2Cms and Kooboo to name a few.
I am migrating an Asp.Net 2.0 WebSite to an Asp.Net MVC 2.0 Application. In the Asp.Net WebSite Themes and skin features are used for customizing UI.
I would like to handle this in Asp.Net MVC 2.0. Is there a good way to migrate the Themes and Skins in Asp.Net MVC 2.0.
EDIT: I have looked into some of the solutions on the net and other Stackoverflow questions. But the solution suggested are to create Views/Master pages for each Themes which looks like to me as a violation of DRY principal.
ASP.NET MVC does not natively handle themes. It is designed to product clean HTML that you can apply stylesheets to. Themes work on controls, MVC has no concept of controls.
This question has been asked before and there are some workarounds: Asp.Net MVC Themes, how to?
