James Pratt’s Widescreen theme for Textpattern has an immediate WOW factor about it and makes up for the paucity of photoblog themes for Textpattern. The “W” may be due to the custom color field which allows you to pick a color from each photo and incorporate it into the design elements (lines and hover backgrounds) for that page. The “O” may be from the LiveSearch feature which produces live thumbnail results in a semi-transparent overlay. Finally, the “W” may be from the side captions and comment input form that is revealed when you scroll down and remains in a fixed position while scrolling. Together, James Pratt’s theme spells “WOW” and guarantees that my sub-average photographs look sub-average in a fine looking photoblog.
