1. Matt:

   Hey guys.
   Just a quick note, I’ve updated the theme to fix the “ugly serif text” bug. Enjoy!

2. Political Monster:

   The portfolio CMS idea isn’t too tough. Without comments it should be rather easy. Create ‘posts’ under different categories then display them. Thats it, the user then designs the design. Comments make things a little more difficult of course. Other bits like contact info are also easy, just hold it in the database.

   And thats my 2 cents on the idea (I thought it was a good idea),

   -Nick

3. Matt:

   Hey Nick.
   I actually had a pretty big portion of the foundations of the system done (down to a Google Maps integration, which placed pins at each designer’s location). I’m by no means a good enough PHP coder to continue the project (design is the name of my game).
   If you’d like to discuss it further with me, perhaps you might like to continue the project? You know where to reach me

4. Biscuitrat:

   Much better! My only worry now is the size of the post-date text, and how dark it is. You’ve gotta kinda look out for that when you’re reading the site.

5. Matt:

   Thanks Biscuitrat!
   I didn’t really think there should be much emphasis on the actual date of the portfolio images. I may have a think about increasing it, but I’m not really sure if it’s completely necessary.

6. Another Matt:

   Interesting idea, perhaps ought to do something similar with textpattern.

7. Joram Oudenaarde:

   Hi Matt. Thanks for this simple and slick theme! I’ve seen my share of minimalist-themes with Wordpress, but none of them do what this one does

   There’s a little question I have about making a new page though if that’s ok;
   At the moment I have 3 pages: Recent works, About, and a contact page (nice tip btw). But what if I wanted to make one extra page that acts the same as ‘Recent works’? Basically what I mean is having 2 blogpages; one with my recent work, and one that acts as my blog. Could you tell us how to pull that off please?

8. Mess:

   Nice idea, but i cant post flash objects using your theme, why?

15. kinkypixel:

    did you ever do the archiving part of this site?

    i think its a very important section thats missing..

    cpouple of tings that i think could make this a perfect template for any portfolio are:

    ability to create duplicated pages that act the same as the main blog… so you can split your portfolio into sections.. ie 3d/ graphics/ web etc etc

    the archive section

    cheers

22. David P:

    The demo don’t seem to work anymore

23. G:

    the demo is broken.

24. Ingrid Stamatson:

    Aug 6 2007 and the demo is still not working. I am looking for something for my photo site [http://balkophoto.com] that will not only accomodate regular image portfolios, but also the free WP Header Images I have just completed. I plan on offering the images free for use in WP or any open source CMS - and there the thumbs are 400px and full-sized is 1000px.

25. Danny:

    There are a couple of sites around the web that are running this theme or variations there-of (in lieu of the non-working demo):
    http://www.antoniociccarone.com/
    http://www.cognitivecreative.com/

    Has anyone tried to get a lightbox effect working with this theme (where images pop forward when clicked and the background greys out)? If so, would you mind passing on the plug-in source?

26. darren:

    i am using but a modified version at http://www.kinkypixel.co.uk

    can anyone tell me how to get the archieving system to work please

27. SDK:

    What about RSS?

28. SDK:

    BTW - this theme is tits!

29. SDK:

    nevermind…

    doh!

30. David Bates:

    The live demo is down.

31. the smu:

    i’m also interested in getting lightbox/slightbox working with this… any news on that yet?

32. the smu:

    sorry, GREAT theme by the way

33. Danny:

    I got lightbox working by adding a script to the header.php file. I found the script on the wp.org forums. Don’t have it handy right now.

    I am, however, having trouble getting it to work with safari. I changed a couple of colors and other settings in the stylesheet and now its a mess.

34. Danny:

    Well, i seem to have fixed my safari issues. I’m sold that i still have IE6 issues though with the footer line crossing through one of my links.

35. SDK:

    Can’t wait for the new version!

36. thesmu:

    hey folks - i got lightbox working. it seems the header.php file is missing ths line of code:

    you need to put it right before the tag and then it should work.

37. thesmu:

    sorry, it dissapeared - take out the * it’s just so it shows..

38. thesmu:

    hmm
    third time lucky

    no spaces!

39. thesmu:

    oh for goodness sake…

40. thesmu:

      

    put it before the

    tag

41. thesmu:

    left arrow ? php space wp _ head ( ) ; space ? right arrow

    put it before the closing head tag

42. thesmu:

    woo hoo! cryptic hope it makes sense…

    Hi there. I just wanted to let you know that I love the Sharpfolio theme. I’ve tweaked it to fit my website and added a bit more to it, but without this simple theme, I would probably have ended up with some boring old default. Thanks for making it! Always appreciated.
