Theme Release: Dotos

Introducing Dotos, a mobile-friendly photo-blog theme with native support for Jigoshop. View the live demo. This is the first theme designed and coded by me after the recent DevPress change of ownership.

I wanted to release Dotos a week ago, but due to taking time off (my birthday) and a sidebar bug I had to hold on to it for several more days.

Anyway, back to Dotos, it features a fullscreen template that automatically adjusts your images to any browser size. Although focused on photos, it comes with an optional sidebar (and hidden two-column layout based on whether the sidebar is active). Finally, like I mentioned above, Dotos supports Jigoshop out of the box. Everything about this theme is simple, smart, and mobile friendly. Best of all, it’s free.

I hope you like what I’ve done with this theme. More themes are coming soon.

Features Coming Soon to Dotos:

If you recognize what I mocked up for Dotos below, I agree. It is awesome.

    I think that it’s confusing. Design-wise it may be OK but I think you will need to pay more attention to usability.

    One more question. On your demo, fullscreen images are changing very smooth. On my page http://www.yabasta.cz/svatba/ pictures first change its dimension before fade into another image. Strange.. Don“t you know how to setup or fix it? Thank you Klimas

    fullscreen images are changing very smooth: SOLVED! The aspect ratio of all images shall be like 1600×1200, 1024×768 etc. othervise it makes troubles in transition fades as mentioned.

    translation: SOLVED! you have to create subfolder named languages in themes/dotos/ folder. Problem si that the .po and .mo files have to be called dotos-cs_CZ.mo (cs_CZ is example for the czech language) and dotos-cs_CZ.po (standard names are only cs_CZ.mo and cs_CZ.po) and therefore eg. program CodeStyling Localization does not work properly for translation with such “long” names..
