Hi all,

I have been using this amazing free images site for about a year now. I would like to know if it is using a theme, or is it custom built? If it is a theme, which one is it?

Also if it is custom made, how much would a similar site design cost me?

Thanks

      Finally a reply, thank you.

      I have already checked it with builtwith. But it does not show there if it is a theme, a customized one, or a specifically built one! Also how about the price? The site seems pretty simply yet incredibly fast, gtmetrix give it 2 sec for a page with 10 images , and 1.7 sec for internal pages. Also the design is quite impressive. What would you quote such a simple site with fast speed and up-to-date design?

      Thanks

  • Try to search photography theme with Google and you will see that you can download theme for free: 65 Amazing WordPress Photography Themes on the Market This Month - Vandelay Design

    You can get that speed using a good webhosting server and a simple caching plugin like totalcache.
    The cost for that site depends from country you live and from time that developer spend for customization.

      Thank you very much for you support Antonio, but your answers are somewhat irrelevant to my question.

      I know i can download photography themes, i use themeforest and elegantthemes.

      I am not sure of your expertise in web-development, but if you have noticed the site is not like the typical photography themes because each photo is a post and not a gallery. It is very much similar to flickr, maybe you just browsed the pages and did not click on the image which then takes you to a post with an image like here.

      Update: please note that i don't want a copy of this site design, i would like something totally different but same aesthetics range.

      For cost i know that price depends on country and that is why i asked for an estimate for such a functionality site with such a design which is usually expensive because not all agencies can mock-up this design and so those who can, they charge high price.

      I have contacted few agencies, those like the ones that does websites and win awwwards, to get an estimate for this site and they replied somewhere around $10,000. I was just curios about the expertise of warriors here at the forums if they can confirm such a price, or if someone might figure out that this site was done use a disguised pre-made theme.

      I am seeking to launch a similar project and making my research.

      If anyone can give an estimate for a similar functionality and design, i would be very thankful, but please provide me with your web 2.0 portfolio so i know you are capable of such a design.

  • Actually I'm busy with other projects because I am not only a webdesigner, but also a software developer therefore I cannot help you.
    Have you try to search web designer on odesk or freelancing.com? There you'll receive a lot of offers in a few time and there is the feedback system that you haven't in this forum.
    With feedback system you cannot be scam.
