Photojax is a clean and minial, yet unique, WordPress photography theme. This sleek and modern theme features two color skins, beautiful galleries using the premium Royal Slider plugin ($20 value), an audio player, and a minimal blog (all you’ll need for a great photography portfolio). Although designed for photographers it can be a great theme for graphic designers, architects, and anyone else with an image based portfolio.
At the heart of Photojax is the ajaxed homepage which allows you to open and scroll through galleries without having to reload the page. This makes it easier for users to view all of your galleries, it adds a fun displacement animation to the homepage as well as it allows for your audio to play continuously as your visitors browse the gallery. To add a gallery simply create a gallery post, name it, and attach (upload) your images. Create as many galleries as you like – categorize and tag them!
This theme includes light and dark skin versions. Depending on your photographic area of expertise choose whichever skin works best for you. The light skin might bring out the personality of your portraits, or the dark skin might emphasize manipulated and photoshopped images. Both skins include all of the same features and have been expertly coded and styled.
Photojax also includes support for an audio track (homepage only). The music plays on a loop to provide ambiance when readers are viewing your galleries. And since Photojax is an Ajax portfolio the music isn’t interrupted when you switch between galleries. Add your mp3 and ogg via the admin panel (use any song you have a purchased a license for, or upload music you’ve created). Visitors to your site can easily mute the music if they wish by clicking on the megaphone icon, but if you choose a good song they won’t want to!
Another great feature of Photojax is right click protection. While this won’t completely protect your intellectual and photographic works, it will deter some. You can even customize the warning message when someone does try to right click.
This theme is also responsive so it will adjust according to your browser width.
Plus Photojax is bundled with the Symple Shortcodes plugin allowing you to customize your website with various buttons, pricing tables, alerts and much more.
Video:Video on how the galleries work coming real soon! But basically they use the default WP attachements, so any image uploaded to a gallery is automatically shown in the slider – yay! Users using photopro can switch without issues.
