    This is not very usable. My natural tendency when I see a horizontal layout is to swipe. Failing that, I scroll. You have replaced two very natural actions with buttons. While this layout may look nice, it fails from a usability standpoint.

      Hi Clinton – you can scroll using the scroll bars in any browser :)

    can’t seem to remove (or replace) the header image (of the bridge) ..please advise.

    Hi! Love the theme…but can you size the images in the Home Page and the Gallery Post Format to be bigger (height) in order to not leave any white space at the bottom of photos? Thanks!

    Re: Clinton Blackburn’s comment… GPP, does Sideswipe swipe, or must you press a button?? [Can't check, don't have an ipad yet].

    Nice theme the only beef i have is that any images you post link to the image URL rather than the blog page, you have to manually add hyperlinks to each image. Something quite important when you consider the images take up the majority the space on the page.

    Great theme – both from design and functionality perspective. It also works as expected on iPad and breaks down nicely on smaller devices. Just one question: Has anyone tried adapting it to their photoshelter galleries? It’s not one of the ‘blessed’ themes, but if the manual configuration isn’t to onerous I’d like to jump from sidewinder which isn’t very tablet friendly.

    I wish to purchase this site, however i see no Social Media icons on the demo. Can this be enabled as a plugin?
