Semiomantics EVO Developer Theme 2 years ago, about at the same time of the year, we have built Evo, an Action script driven Flash photo and portfolio website. This time we will make use of HTML5, CSS3 and Java Script to customize Semiomantics EVO, a Semiomantics development for Developers. Semiomantics Evo Flash is not anymore a smart option for development for as long as Apple mobile devices are as popular as they are and for as long as mobile Apple devices will not display Flash. Therefore we have been looking for an alternative to produce smashing and eye-catching sites based on HTML5. Of course the good old Evo Flash driven sites still look great. As a lot of work has been put into them we will try to use namely all the edited images and footage in the new EVO version. Semiomantics EVO Version 2012 The biggest changes are: EVO is now powered by WordPress EVO does not use any Flash but is a responsive HTML5, CSS3 and Java script theme. The new EVO assembles the ultimate in WordPress design and features for modern media display. Ideal for photographers, EVO features not less than 6 different Gallery Types. Galleries [...]

Image Borders, Padding, Captions on XO Theme Thumbnails on WordPress There are two kinds of thumbnails produced on your XO site: the native WordPress thumbnails and the thumbnails generated by XO for the purpose of display throughout the theme where the WordPress thumbnails don’t fit. WordPress Thumbnails Thumbnail sizes are set in your dashboard under Settings > Media. When we change the thumbs’ sizes, the change will apply only to new content. These thumbnails are used by default in the XO Basic Home Page Layout. In order to modify thumbnails created previously to a change in WordPress settings, we use the “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin; install from your dashboard and then just run it: this will create thumbnails corresponding to the new WP Media settings for all images in the library and galleries. The Regenerate Thumbnails plugin will have no impact on syndicated posts unless you also pull in the images to your library when syndicating. XO Theme Thumbnails When we upload an image from our dashboard in XO, XO creates 12 thumbnails adapted to the needs of the site and stores them in the default uploads folder for faster loading. If we change the layout settings in XO advanced home [...]

XO Theme for WordPress Styling After each post, we display Tag, Category and RSS references. They are not part of the actual post; they are of a rather technical nature and may help visitors to find contextual content on the site. The SEO impact of publishing such Meta Information is discussable. Styling the Author Name We want to display the author’s name underneath the main title in small but remarkable fonts: .post .meta, .hentry .meta,.post .meta a, .hentry .meta a { color:#111111;letter-spacing:5px; } Note: we just use letter-spacing to gain visibility. Bottom Tags Usually these meta tags are printed in small print, often difficult to read. For the purpose of this exercise we have switched to a serif font (Times) and increased letter spacing for better readability: .storycontent .postmetadata, .storycontent .tags { font-family: Times, “Times New Roman”,serif; font-variant:small-caps; font-size:16px; line-height:1.1em;color:#101010; letter-spacing:2.5px; } .storycontent .postmetadata a, .storycontent .tags a{ color:#000000; } Nothing really exciting here: we are using small-caps (alternatively upper-cases) and letter-spacing of 2.5px.Note that letter-spacing can take decimal values. The fun is in experimenting with font, colors and styles! Related posts: WordPress Date Styling Custom Typography on Semiomantics XO Theme for WordPress
