PhotoEclipse - Ajax Powered Portfolio WP Theme

New Feature: individual background-slideshows for each page/post!

an AJAX powered Fullscreen-Background theme, will enable you to built an impressive portfolio page without much effort, in no time. To avoid full page reloads wich is the main problem with themes that use a fullscreen background slideshow, PhotoEclipse uses advanced Ajax to load its pages while background slider, sound etc. keep running. At the same time it doesn’t loose any functionality in terms of browser history and url’s. Our team worked very hard to bring you this unique theme and we hope you will enjoy it!
