Gordon, thanks for the comment! I did the site myself in WordPress. I used a theme as a base, and utilized it’s extensive customization to get the look you see. I am also using a few plug-ins, one of them on the Photography page for the albums.
Send me an email, and I would be happy to provide you a list of all the plug-ins and theme details.

Scott,

I love your site and would love to copy your process for a business site I have referenced above. Did you do the site yourself or did you have a designer do it for you? If you had some one do it, would you mind telling me who and approx. what it cost. I am new in the Online marketing business, but very anxious to learn a much as I can,

Respectfully,
Gordon Petty

Thanks for the comments Joseph!
Actually I have a skateboard dolly much like Tom’s. No way to bring it on that trip though. Was a last minute location since I had 4 hours to kill due to the military exercise being delayed.
No polarizer on this film, wish I had used! I had a couple too…

Actually, I have been programming WordPress sites for 4 years, and love the Atahualpa theme! So many ways to alter and customize it.

I agree with Bloom and Guilmette on the digital zoom stuff. The reason it looks “digital” though I feel is how steady the zoom is. Try using logarithmic curves for the zoom… maybe that would make it feel more organic. I did that in a project a while back. Or just go pick up a small PVC / skateboard trucks setup like Guilmette uses!

Overall, I liked the look and feel. Wish you could have graded it so it emphasized the accent colors (the magentas, purples, etc) though! That would’ve been awesome! And I would’ve loved to see more of a richer blue sky… where you using a polarizer?

Your pans were fantastic. Having a pro tripod makes a world of a difference in the professionalism of something like this!

now stop copying Tom’s WordPress themes and we’ll be golden!

Tom, Thank you for the comments!

As for the reply to comments; I am using 2.7.1 of WordPress. From the WordPress Dashboard, Under ‘Settings/Discussion’ in the “Other comment settings” section, there is a checkbox to turn ON or OFF “Enable threaded (nested) comments XX levels deep”.

Upgrading should not be a problem. Make sure you get a compatible version of Atahualpa, and make a full backup of your site. Then, if there is an issue, you can ‘rollback’ from your backup. I have some code mods, and have upgraded once, no issues.

Hey Scott.

I like this too, I enjoy the slow pushes and pulls, but Phil is right, you must use them carefully.

I have a question: How do you get the reply to the comment appear under the original comment? Is that the new version of Atahualpa or is that the new version of wordpress?

I am running very old stuff on my site, but have modified the code so much I fear upgrading!

Tom
