DeviousCreations Ver 5.0… Mobile Friendly!

A new year, a new look. Gone are the full screen image backgrounds and busy sidebar – say hello to simple, minimal and more importantly.. fully responsive browsing.

When I first moved over to WordPress, I spent forever looking for a theme that I felt would best display my work. However, recently I began to realise that the sites appearance lacked particular contrast between it and the work it was supposed to be presenting. Whole screen images look great, but they also detract from the rest of the site’s content. There were also some particularly blocky elements to the design I grew tired of. Most of all though, I disliked the fact that it simply did not work on any type of mobile platform, and appeared broken.

Step forward Epicera’s ShapeShifter 2 Super Skeleton dynamic wordpress theme. Sleek, simple and without any bloat.

What’s particularly impressive about this theme is the way it adjusts the content to fit any type of browsing device. The framework is incredibly responsive, with sliders even working on your smartphone via touchscreen gestures.

The other nifty thing that really stands out is the scrolling content menu at the upper section of the sidebar. Simply click any of the tabs, and the page scrolls down  to that content automatically. An arrow button appears at the bottom right of the page when you do this, and clicking it will send you straight back to the top!

There will be a few tweaks here and there as I add more new content to the site, but may I present to you… Devious Creations Ver. 5.0!
