Big Easy - New Portfolio-Based Theme from WooThemes

Big Easy - New Portfolio-Based Theme from WooThemes

A very neatly coded, pixel sharp portfolio-based theme designed by the UK based web legend Dan Rubin. This theme boasts an impressive widgetized home page, custom typography, and impressive portfolio handling functionality. Dan is a genius when it comes to web design, he gives a lot of careful thought to his designs and with Big Easy his personal style shines through. For his alternate styles to Big Easy he scanned and tweaked an old (circa 1970s) leather case with some lovely stitching, and a book cover from 1934 to form large repeating patterns.

Unique Features
These are some of the more unique features that you will find within the theme:

  • A unique widgetized home page with 3 custom widgets displaying portfolio items, blog posts and category archives, ordered however you see fit
  • An automated custom portfolio post display with a js tabber displaying screenshots.
  • A completely widgetized sidebar with 6 custom widgets included in the theme packaging. No third party widgets required; and
  • 6 amazing colour schemes to choose from!

Standard Features
These features are probably just as special as the one’s above, but you’ll find these standard features within most of our wide range of themes:

  • Integrated Theme Options (for WordPress) to tweak the layout, colour scheme etc. for the theme;
  • Threaded Comments for WordPress 2.7+;
  • Custom Page Templates for Archives & Sitemap;
  • Built-in Gravatar Support for Comments; and
  • Integrated ad spaces, which can accomodate both image banner ads or AdSense embeds.
