Saturation Tumblr Theme

A beautiful, visual Tumblr theme for photographers and artists.

A beautiful way to display your portfolio of work.

Saturation is a beautiful portfolio theme for Tumblr. Whether you’re a photographer, illustrator, or designer, it’s a stylish way to show your work to the world.

• Choose a slideshow of featured work
• Widgets for Instagram, Twitter, and Dribbble
• An “About Me” sidebar box, with a contact link
• A drop-down menu for featuring different tags
• Customise colours, typography, and design details
• Infinite scrolling, group blog support, and much more

A Featured Slideshow of Work

Saturation features a large slider to showcase your photographs or work. You can change the height, speed, transition style, photo alignment, and lots more.

It’s also easy to add a title, description, and link to each photo. You can use these to promote products, links, photos, or anything else!

Stylish, Square Posts

Posts are arranged in a stylish grid, each cropped to a square format, with the layout flowing to different styles depending on whether you’re on a desktop, tablet, or phone.

It’s simple for readers to like, reblog, or link to your posts.

Instagram, Flickr, and Twitter Widgets

Saturation can also pull in your work from other sources as well — your latest photos from Instagram or Flickr, or thoughts and links from Twitter. These show up as widgets at the bottom of each page.

Social buttons let people follow your adventures on your various social media channels — we support dozens of different icons and networks (and we’re always adding more!)

Photo Details

You can choose to showcase the EXIF data from your photos if you’d like (all pulled automatically from the photos). This includes your camera, aperture, exposure, or focal length.

It’s a great way to give a bit more detail and information about your images, without any extra work on your part!

Customise Everything

You can change any and every aspect of Saturation to match your style and personal brand.

Fonts and typography, colours, layout, backgrounds, border widths — you name it, you can customise it!

It looks great right out of the box, but it’s simple to put your own stamp on the design (and we’re here to help you every step of the way!)

Share Away

With one click, visitors can share your content across different social channels: Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Google+.

This is in addition to all the usual Tumblr features, allowing people to like and reblog your portfolio of work. Don’t let your incredible content go unnoticed!

Keyboard Navigation

A unique feature makes it easy for your readers to flick around your site, using only their keyboard.

H takes you home, R takes you to a random post, and the Left and Right arrows navigate between posts or pages. Discover a whole new way to browse your Tumblr site!
