Please welcome our first theme designed by our developer Elio Rivero - Fullscreen (demo). It started with a simple discussion about fullscreen galleries and Elio suggested to take responsibility to design it. We agreed to it because we thought it would be fun to have a theme designed from a developer's perspective. After hours and hours of hard work and collaboration, Fullscreen turned out to be a gorgeous photo gallery theme. The entire process was very fun and we are extremely happy with the outcome. It is the best responsive theme to showcase your photos in a complete fullscreen mode.
