Join Carrie Dils for an in-depth discussion in this video Roundup of suitable themes, part of WordPress and Genesis DIY: Freelance/Independent Website.
- [Voiceover] Based on the requirements…we set out for this site, I went searching for themes…on studiopress.com, as well as some…third-party sellers, to see what themes…could work for a freelancer or a portfolio site.…There are many themes available…that I think would be a good candidate for this site,…and I'd like to show you three that I think…could work well for this course, or for your site.…Each one is mobile responsive, based on…up to date coding standards, and are from…reputable sources.…Now, there's one thing I want you to keep in mind…as we look at each of these theme demos.…
Even though I'm building a portfolio site for a baker,…only one of these themes is demoed…as a food related site.…Any of these could work for a freelancer…wanting to show off a portfolio of work.…Just use your imagination, to visualize…your images and content.…Let's take a look.…First, we've got Modern Portfolio Pro,…available at studiopress.com.…It's got a very clean, minimalist design,…and has a nice way to highlight portfolio items…
