Thanks to its unexpected popularity, I’m pleased to announce the availability of Porfolio, a WordPress theme for photographers and artists.
The framework for my current site, I designed this theme with the intent of being able to separate my photographic content from other content on the site, yet having a consistent look throughout. The design is clean and simple, and the result is a fast-loading, professional looking theme that gives artists the ability to easily showcase their work.
Under the hood, it has a widget-ready sidebar for Posts and a bottom bar for Pages. Since galleries are normally be displayed as Pages, the bottom bar allows for navigation throughout the site without distracting from the content of the Page.
Features
- Fast loading
- Customizable jQuery slideshow on home page
- WordPress version up to 2.9.1
- Consistent behavior on all modern browsers
- Validates as XHTML1.0 Strict for both CSS and HTML
A live demo of the them can be previewed here. While there, see the Instructions page for usage details.
UPDATE: This theme is no longer available, but I plan to work on a version that takes advantage of the some of the features introduced with WordPress 3 while retaining the function and flavor of this theme. Stay tuned!
