So, not sure if you’ve heard the news but Photocrati just released version 4.0 of their very popular theme for photographers.

These new features should be met with open arms from photographers because they are really quite awesome. I’m a big fan of Photocrati’s theme because it gives photographers a theme that puts imagery first. It’s super easy to use and allows you to get your site set up in a couple hours,, depending on how many photos you have.
I’ll be putting up some video tutorials in the near future on how to install, set up and make the best use of this theme so keep an eye out. And if you have any questions please leave a comment below.
Also, I just uploaded a video on installing photocrati theme and creating a gallery if you’re interested.
