IDEAL FOR PORTFOLIOS AND IMAGE GALLERIES

The uniqueness of Collection comes from its ability to successfully portray a wide variety of portfolio and image-rich content in a way that can attract customers to sign-up for your services. This theme is ideal for portfolio websites that also have a significant use for image gallery pages that allow front-end users to enlarge photographs.

Thanks to its social media integration, you can easily give readers one-click access to your Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn accounts; increasing your exposure and gaining fans in the process.

This theme is somewhat different from traditional layouts in that it doesn’t contain a featured content slider. However, the download makes up for that fact with its three-column default homepage layout that prominently displays entries using LightBox effects for enhancement.

Post excerpts on the front page have a thumbnail image along with description text so those reading have an idea of what they’re looking at before the click through for additional info.

EASY TO USE CONTROL PANEL

The back-end of Collection is a cinch to navigate, and requires zero code work in order to function right out of the box. Tabs for general settings, social media, Search Engine Optimization, and much more are presented in a way that can be used by anyone with even a rudimentary amount of computer experience.

Even if you’ve never been a formal “webmaster” before, Collection has everything you need to drag and click your way to successful content insertion.

DUAL SIDEBARS WITH SHORTCODES

By default, the sidebars for Collection are configured to appear on both sides with some page templates. This is a great tool for placing widgets in strategic areas to increase you conversions through Flickr photo feeds, recent post links, etc.

This theme also comes with shortcodes; meaning you can emphasis certain entries and make them more presentable to the reader by inserting alert boxes, columned text and more.

Collection will work on all versions of WordPress later than 3.1 and is also compatible with all of today’s most frequently used web browsers.

LIGHTBOX EFFECTS

If you are a webmaster who likes to use LightBox effects that give different views whenever a particular entry is being moused over, then Collection is the theme for you. Note that you will need to manually unpack the .zip file once you download it in order to ensure a successful WordPress installation.

Collection doesn’t have a content slider, but boasts a very clean layout that has plenty of wiggle room for website customization without going into the Editor. It is recommended that portfolio and image gallery website owners use this theme, which also has a number of custom page templates for contact and blog pages.
