Differentiate Yourself:
ProPhoto is a blog template that many photographers use, but it's almost impossible for your clients to know that. The customization options are so varied, and so powerful, that you can easily create a look and feel for your blog unlike any other. Choose from 18 header layouts, and then customize every aspect of those layouts. Change the width of your blog. Include/exclude elements at will. Choose all your own fonts, colors, customizations. This is no cookie-cutter blog.
Designed for WordPress 2.7
The ProPhoto theme was designed from the beginning for complete compatibility with the most recent version of WordPress, version 2.7. The design integration is total, and ProPhoto takes advantage of many of the new, powerful features of WordPress' best release yet
Built-in contact form
Professional-looking, built-in contact form available on every page of your blog. Hidden in the main menu, it gracefully slides into view when your users click "Contact" and is totally customizable, and secure from spam.
Save your work
Save an unlimited number of versions of your design layouts. Experiment like crazy, or switch designs on a regular basis.
Professional Bio Area
A really important part of your professional website is a place where your clients can get to know you through a picture and a brief bio. This area is totally customizable, supports multiple, randomized pictures on page refresh, and can be shown on whichever type of pages you want or don't want.
Built-in Twitter integration
Do you tweet? ProPhoto comes with a super-slick built-in Twitter integration that allows you to professionally share your tweets in a your main navigation drop-down menu.
Search Engine Optimized (SEO)
WordPress is already the best blogging platform for Search Engine Optimization, but ProPhoto takes it up a notch. The theme is pre-built with every "best-practice" SEO functionality including smart title tags, proper use of H1 tags, customizable meta description and keywords, minimized duplicate content, and much more. No need for an SEO plugin or consultant, it's already all there.
Fricking-sweet finishing touches:
Easily upload your own "favicon" -- the little icon to the left or your web address in browsers. Upload a custom image that will get used as an iPhone bookmark by anyone who saves your website on their iPhone. Add a custom image as a separator between your posts to reinforce your branding and style. And many, many more.
On page, inline comments
One of the great strengths of blogs vs. other types of websites is the ability for your clients/friends/fans to interact with each other and with you through comments. ProPhoto makes this as easy, intuitive, and professional-looking as any site out there. No clicking to another page to view comments, they are loaded inline, and shown with a graceful sliding effect when clicked. Or, alternatively, choose to show them by default below each post. The comment area turns into a scrolling box when enough comments are left. Also, easy links for blog viewers to link to the post, add a comment, or email a friend the link are always available. Oh yeah, and everything about the comments area is totally customizable, of course.
Built-in Feedburner Integration:
Many pro blogs choose to use Feedburner RSS feeds for more advanced tracking and publicity features not available without a feedburner feed. ProPhoto lets you use a feedburner feed instead, and needs no plugin. Just enter your feedburner URL and everything is set. Also includes built-in integration with the popular "subscribe by email" RSS option from feedburner. Embed a "subscribe by email" form in your navigation menu or footer area, and customize the way it appears.
Optimized for fast loading
Excellent, minimal, lightweight, standards-compliant code means the fastest possible page-loading times. Plus, ProPhoto comes with a ground-breaking functionality that delays loading pictures far down on your blog page until your user begins to scroll toward them. This makes the pages finish loading much faster.
Easy Updates:
All your customization choices are stored in a single entry in your WordPress database, and uploaded images reside in your normal WordPress uploads folder. This means when there are new releases of ProPhoto, you can simply delete all your old files and replace them, and all your customizations will be preserved.
Fanatical Support
Go ahead and ask around about us in forums, or with your photog friends. We have an incredible reputation for customer service. Frankly, we hate being ignored or treated poorly by businesses, and we simply won't do it to you. We'd rather spend our time and energy taking incredible care of you than buying expensive ad space. So far, our fanatical support has gotten us all of our customers. We're constantly striving to make our product more useable, intuitive, and dummy-proof. You're not a web-geek, you're a photographer. We think the darn thing should "just work". We're also always refining our FAQs, documentation, and extensive video tutorials. And when all those efforts fail, you can expect an extremely quick email response to your problem, and someone going the extra mile to help you out.
Built-in Analytics Support
If you use Google Analytics or Statcounter (or want to) to track visits to your blog, no plugins or diggin through code is required. Just paste your tracking code into the input area, and it will work. ProPhoto is also smart enough not to track your own visits to your blog.
Admin Area Screenshots
If you really want a detailed look at the customization power of ProPhoto, take a look at these full-size screenshots of the ProPhoto admin area. NOTE: don't feel overwhelmed by all these options -- only about 10% of them are normally visible (and you don't have to change any of them), they are just all shown on these screenshots for the sake of curiosity.
