    It’s a Super Tuesday: Check Out Our New Features!

    Hold on tight, we have lots of new features to share with you today. Every Tuesday we unveil new features, and today we have lots of them to share.

    • Bordeaux: New Flash Website Template
    • Two New Fonts
    • Four New Tile Backgrounds

    Introducing Bordeaux

    For the first new Flash Website Template released since January, we wanted to do something really special. We took one of our most popular templates from last year, Marseille and refined it to a whole new level. We hope you love it as much as we do! 

    Bordeaux has a unique transition combined with a gradient background and sleek mirror at the bottom of each image. Combined with all of the amazing features and technology PhotoBiz provides with our templates, Bordeaux is fully customizable to match your unique branding and style.

    You will immediately notice the unique transition featured in Bordeaux. Up to five of your images will be displayed in a sophisticated carousel transition where the center image zooms forward and swings into place. Below each image you will notice an elegant mirror effect.

    Bordeaux offers a very sleek layout for its gallery pages. Arrows are displayed at all times on the left and right of the images for easy navigation. You will also notice a pause and reload button, as well as an image counter.

    Custom backgrounds are possibly our favorite feature that many of our beautiful templates offer! In fact, clients often describe these as the most customizable and dynamic feature of PhotoBiz Website Templates, especially when complimented with our color shifting. To add a personal touch you may even upload a custom background whether it’s a textured JPG or a transparent PNG. Here are two examples of how to create a totally unique experience for your clients.

    Finally, each and every PhotoBiz template offers a unique loading symbol. Below is the symbol in Bordeaux. All of the colors shown in the example are fully customizable.

    Two New Fonts

    We are also excited for the release of two new fonts for the Blog and Store Sites – Allise and Schema. Check these out for even more custom options.

    Finally to wrap up our Super Tuesday releases are four new backgrounds. Carbon Fiber is a new full screen background available for Flash Templates, as well as Blog and Store Sites. Plus, Pillow Texture, Gingham Transparent, and Herringbone Transparent are new backgrounds for the Blog and Store Sites. This brings the total of tiled backgrounds to 24, in addition to 17 full page backgrounds.
