Fresh Folio is WooTheme’s second premium portfolio theme. On their website, WooThemes show many features of the theme.

-Portfolio oriented

-The template will automatically (visually) separate your blog & portfolio content, making this an amazing theme for aspiring designers, developers, artists, photographers etc.;

-Unique page templates for the portfolio, blog, blog archives, tags & search results.

-7 diverse theme styles to choose from.

-Built in Flickr and Twitter widgets to show your thoughts and photos

-Integrated Theme Options (for WordPress) to tweak the layout, colour scheme etc. for the theme;

-Optional Automatic Image Resizer, which is used to dynamically create the thumbnails and featured images;

-Widgetized Sidebars.

These features all look very good but of course they will try and make you think that, it gets them customers! I shall show you the truth about this theme.

The header looks very sleek as it has a dark background, though not quite black, which gives effect to the text and pictures that are on it. I like the way that the background has a faint glow, this is very good for giving the header a a depth that could not be easily achieved otherwise. The text on the header makes it look very different to most themes, as many use a standard layout which this one does not.

The content is displayed in such a way that it feels right, this may be due to the greyscale colours that surround it. All the important features, such as the subscribe button and comments button, are in colours that flow with the theme, while standing out.

The side bar is very good, as it compliments very well with the content but has more colour, the photo’s really make it stand out. I like the plugins that are built into the theme, such as the twitter and flickr widgets. These seem to fit very well with the theme as a whole, and they are plugins that I have not seen before so it is very good to see something new built into a theme.

Many people like big bulky footers, but I love the footer on this theme as it is simple but looks very professional. A footer is for extra information such as who made the site, the theme, when they made it and copyright.. this theme does it perfectly.

Usually I can find a lot of bad points about a theme, but with this I can find none. For only $70 this theme is well worth the money, and will make any blog look profesional.
