I will look into it, thanks

It is drop shadow added to the font via css. Like this:

This is an awesome theme. My website http://www.zhigouusa.com/ is in Chinese. But you are always welcome to check out my design of the theme

Hi Madfrog,

The page does not get more basic than that. It is probably a cultural thing, but I like to look at sites that are "warmer" friendlier, more inviting and less "BUY ME NOW."

I would be tempted to put an image in the background behind the page. But like I said, it is personal preference only, your site looks perfectly functional.

Thank you Sharon, the lookups to Facebook & Twitter for the 'Like' & 'Tweet' counts are where the delays are for this site - though I'm seeing < 1sec page load time here?

Yes, much faster, whatever you did. How can you tell it is the FB/Twitter links that slow it down?

Thank you for letting me know Sharon - Pingdom has a bunch of useful tools which measure various things including page loading time on a per-element basis.

This is my website based on atahualpa: http://strictlyhonest.com

I would like to make it match my forum one day at godlikediscussions dot tk but I don't want to hassle with html settings because I have enough traffic and don't want to break it so I'm to scared to change anything.

This site has been up for close to a year but thought I would post it because it really shows the power behind this theme.

Is this a great site? Not really but was given a design by a graphic designer and had to match it pixel perfect. Many things wrong with it but we won't go into that. Client and graphic designer was happy, so I guess that's what counts.

I think without Atahualpa I would have given up. Even then I almost did. Thanks to Larry, I got past some tough things.

Here is a just launched Atahualpa site:

http://kroppedal.dk

It's for a danish museum.

The design was made by a graphical designer and I implemented it in Atahualpa.

These are some of the plugins used:

Gravity Forms
Types & Views
My Calendar
Custom Post Widget
Display Widgets
Subpages Extended

Very nice, Jacob! I like the painting of the village...looks like the village in Babette's Feast..one of my favourite movies!

Thanks, Sharon.

I believe the painting is of the village Baldersbrønde in the beginning of the 20th century:

I just got the free version...not simple to figure it out...akkkk

Here is a link to my Atahualpa website: http://www.paulgingell.co.uk

It's still work in progress, and the fonts are a bit temperamental, but the structure is working well. I'm particularly pleased with the multi-column format, which was much easier than I thought it would be.

I couldn't have done half of this without all the people on this forum asking questions and working through solutions. It's been a joy to use.

Paul - very nice site! clean and uncluttered - you get a pat on the back!
I did notice in the footer, the SUBSCRIBE doesn't do anything

Thanks! There are quite few links out of action at the moment. The Subscribe button will need some though, as I haven't yet worked out how a self-hosted Wordpress site works in an interactive sense. I'm thinking that I might create some kind of html email which people can sign up to, or perhaps I'll find an interesting plugin which does something similar.

Just take a look and leave a comment

Wow, Frank, that is one of the very best I have ever seen! Beautiful! Font is a little small for me, but I am probably older than your regular customers!

Thanks Sharon !!

@ Paul Gingell

Nice site, Paul!! I never would have guessed it was Atahualpa at all. You sure are a talented photographer as well. Love the green fields and the little village on the About page. Will those ever be cards?

Anyways, the only suggestion I would have is to make your css and javascript external (ATO-CSS/Javascript- down at the bottom) It makes for tidier coding and brings your actual content closer to the top of the page.

I have also learned to my horror that some kind of backup plugin will save you a stroke sometime in the future. I use Backup to Dropbox.

Very nice and clean Frank. This is a case where the rotating header image works really well. I love the curve at the top of the image.

It looks a nice place too!

I've done this some time back, but I figure what the hey, Working on optimizing the speed again after some changes and plugin updates. Freedom Builders & Remodelers

At first I integrated the blog within my html site then I switched over to all wordpress. I carried the basic color scheme over
