New Theme - zpMasonry - gjr - 26-04-2011

Started out as an experimental theme, but I think it works pretty well. It uses jQuery Masonry script to allow for a fluid layout for album and image thumbs. Also, optional, use of Infinite Scroll script which loads subsequent pages directly into the current page. Also has a floating sidebar, which reverts to static if the height is greater than the viewport height.

I appreciate any feedback and cross browser testing. Only tested in Firefox for PC at the moment, so would appreciate feedback on use from other sytems, especially MAC browsers.

You trying to become the top 3rd party theme contributor, don't you?...;-)

Looks good on Safari 4 on Mac so far. Will make some screenshots and add it to the theme's section soon.

Just installed this theme and it looks great. Turning off Infinite Scroll seems to have sped the site up a bit, though I have no scientific way to prove that. It could have been my server or Internet connection temporarily lagging.

Thanks! @fadedwave - this theme uses pre-determined thumb sizes so your site may appear sluggish until the thumbs are generated (first viewing).

Also looks good/works well in IE9

Is it possible to use a menu at the top for pages. Like a drop down menu with the menu system built in? Decided to revisit Zenphoto for my system. This may be a Zenphoto question instead of this theme. Great stuff.

I only have three albums at the moment. The albums (two columns only) are pushed to the left. Normal or not? Perhaps I need to add more albums to populate the screen?

Looks good in latest google chrome.
Thanks for a great theme!

@domc -
with ZenPage activated, top level pages will appear in the top menu. Child pages will appear in the sidebar when viewing the parent page. The Menu Manager plugin is not built in to this theme, but with a little editing of header.php, you could add this.
Yes this is as expected to your second question. You could always choose larger thumbs in the theme options to fill more space....

Thanks for the info. One more thing. The news link at top does nothing. Refreshes the screen to main site address. Maybe I have something set wrong.

Without knowing the theme details. Did you enable the Zenpage CMS plugin and have actually news? If not there is nothing to show.
