New Themes: Snaps and Gateway
Meet Snaps and Gateway, two new free themes.
On this Theme Thursday, I’m happy to introduce two new free themes.
Snaps
Snaps, by Graph Paper Press, is a portfolio theme designed to showcase portrait-oriented photographs, illustrations, and other works of art. The simple, elegant design keeps the focus on your projects, and scales to fit any screen size.

Gateway
Gateway, by Rescue Themes, is the perfect mix of class and elegance, a traditional yet customizable home for your content. Reinforce your brand with a site logo, add a bold header image and call to action, and showcase your best posts or a video with a special Homepage template.

I like the idea of being able to use a logo … might that become a feature for other themes?

Can the Snaps Theme display landscape-oriented portfolio? I like that theme but not sure if it will work with landscape portfolio. Thanks. 🙂

Snaps does only display portrait-oriented images on Portfolio Archive pages. These images are automatically sized from each project’s Featured Image. Landscape-oriented images can be used as a project’s Featured Image, but they will be cropped.
Images of any shape can be used in a project’s content, and they will display without being cropped on single project pages.
If this image sizing isn’t what you’re looking for, there are many more portfolio themes available! 🙂

I’m not seeing much innovation in themes lately, just minor reworking of existing designs.
