Sky by Elegant Themes

Sky

Sky is a theme that will likely appeal to personal users the most. It has a very laid-back design to it and combines the best of professional design considerations with the most personable of the features that you’d find on users sites. The theme comes with so many professional features, however, that it would make an excellent choice for somebody who has a site that is essentially personal but that is also monetized through various means and that, therefore, needs to keep up with a professional appearance.

Sky includes a large image slider in the middle of the page. This is the most prominent feature that visitors will see when they arrive. This image slider is designed in a clever way that allows you to add a lot of content to it without slowing down the visitor’s computer. Instead of preloading all of the images in the slider, the site only loads them as they are requested. This makes everything much smoother when visitors come to take a look at your site.

The theme is ready for advertisements, as well. There is a feature built into the backend of this theme that you can control from the admin panel. This feature allows you to rotate advertisements without having to deal with any of the code involved. The theme is also provided with support for threaded comments, so you can make certain that you have a healthy community on your site, in addition to a healthy commercial venture.

You can visit this theme on any of the modern browsers in use and you’ll find that it displays correctly. If you want to make changes that you can’t make from the backend, the code is all up to web authoring standards, so those who understand programming won’t have to figure out something that wasn’t done correctly to begin with. The theme also includes the PSD file used to create its look, so you can alter it as much as you wish.

Most of the users of this theme, however, will likely find it to be a great choice and will find all the customization options they want within the control panel. Sky has some great conveniences for nonprofessional designers. The theme will resize thumbnails for you, any changes you make can be made without you having to learn the code to affect them and the theme comes with updates, so you’ll always be working on the latest version available.
