    Thats alright.. except it doesn't seem to pull in GIFs or use the 2x images.

    Seems silly to just display one dribbble shot at 1x with a huge blurred background behind it.

    FIX HINT: check the js file (line 118) for where it checks for gifs. use the thumbnail image for blurred background rather than main image. edit css to not resize to 1x.

      yeah, it's "one size fits all" but that's the point.

        My point is that its NOT one size fits all.. most of my dribbble shots dont even show up because it arbitrarily cuts out gifs.

        There's a line in the js that checks if its a gif, and if so it ignores it. Not too sure why.

        Also the css is what forces the images to 400x300.

        So.. for someone that doesn't want those restrictions, just look to line 118 in the js file, and modify the css to not set the image sizes to 400x300.

          Considering the files are yours to download and upload to your server, can't you just fix these "issues" for your page?

            Precisely why I mentioned editing the files =]

            The creator made a good point about gifs.. you'd also have to do something about the large blurred background.

            For the blurred bg, use "image-teaser-url" instead of "image-url" (use underscores instead of dashes. markdown doesnt like me using underscores...)

          dude, it's a portfolio template.

            Cool suggestion for a plugin.

            Are you saying the fact that its a template means I cant suggest improvements, or tell people how to do it themselves?

            I don't see anything wrong with discussing ways to improve on things people share here. We're all designers, its what we do for a living.. Unless of course the purpose of posting things here is just to have people comment "wow thats cool".

              this is where you lost me. nothing you're saying now is wrong, but your initial comment was dismissive and full of snark with no suggestions/instructions given.

                The suggestion was to pull gifs and 2x images. After looking at the code, i replied with more detailed instructions for those who want to edit. (also added these hints to my first comment)

                I'm not sure my comments are the unconstructive ones.
