There is a growing market of photo bloggers who want to use their WordPress installation to display and obtain feedback on their photos. As a result, a nice niche market has sprung up around it to fill the needs of these bloggers.
One of the best photo themes I’ve run across in awhile is the new Photo Blog theme by WordPress Zoom. Here are the features included with the Photo Blog theme:
- Simple Theme Options Page allows to set up the theme in less than 10 minutes!
- Featured Content on the homepage and in the Sidebar. Number of posts is controlled on the Widgets Page in the Admin Panel.
- Auto-resizing and cropping for thumbnails (TimThumb script)
- Custom image sizes for uploaded images
- Widgetized Sidebar
- Integrated Social Bookmarking Plug-ins (Add to Any)
- Gravatars Support
- AJAX Lightbox for viewing images in different sizes
- Special room in the header for a 468×60 banner.
- Mostly uses relative CSS font-sizes: [em] instead of [px].
- Compatible with all major browsers
- Valid XHTML & CSS Code
- Very easy installation
