Six to Close v1.35
I present Six to Close v1.35 New toggle options! Update & install HERE
People have been messaging about how their tall images were being cut off due to them being tall… So I added two toggle options to limit the height of the photos if you want. This way your tall images will be scaled differently to fit a bit better. You have two options:
A height cap of 550px
A height cap of...
599 Installs
Six to Close has been stalled at 599 installs for the past 4 hours.
Feel like I should do something special when it hits 600. Nah, I’ll do something if it hits 1,000. Then something else if it makes the Popular tag. Then something else if it gets Featured.
Now I need suggestions of what to do.
What do you think?

Toggle Toggle Toggle
I’ve added a couple toggle options for the theme. Those of you who were asking for their to be a photo height cap should rejoice because you now have that option. Be sure to make sure that only ONE photo cap option is checked. Otherwise you’ll get multiple images. I’ve also added a toggle for EXIF data since I know not everyone that uses the theme knows what in the world they are...

ifoughtso asked: I am in love with you're Six Too Close theme but one tiny problem. I post a lot of typographies and because of the largeness of the photo sizes (which I do love) they seem to get cut at the ends. Is there a way the the longer photos could possibly be re-sized? Or is the something I could to fix?
chamberofwonders asked: Hi! I really like your Six To Close Theme. I installed it on one of my blogs and it looks fine on my Opera Browser and on Firefox, too. But there are some problems with Internet Explorer 9 (on Win 7, 64 bit, don't know about other versions). The blogtitle does not show up and one can see the frames around linked images. I'd like to keep the theme, but I'd also like for my blog to...

soddingwankers asked: Hey! I just wanted to say I love your theme. It's just what I've been looking for, and you'd be surprised at how few large-format picture blogs there are. Are you planning on incorporating a "show tags" option at any point? That's something I'd really love to see. Thank you!

Just thought I’d say thanks to the 151 people that’ve installed my theme so far.
Quality themes at no cost are a must. Screw premium themes. Especially when they have no special bells & whistles.
Also, to everyone wanting more drawings/videos, I’ve got a few coming your way. Sorry for my absence. Just life getting in the way.
Peace

Six to Close v1.3 [Video Scaling Added]
I present Six to Close v1.3 Go install it and be awesome HERE
Tell your friends kids Free themes for all
Release Notes: 1.2 -Fixed wonky scaling experienced by Safari users -Scaling reliant solely on javascript instead of css/html -Name changed from “6 to Close” to “Six to Close”
1.3 -Added video scaling. Works for Youtube & Vimeo so far
New Features In Next Release
I sat and wondered, “Maybe I can get the video to scale too”. 30 frustrating minutes later, IT WORKS. Take that, Hi Res Theme. Not even they have scaling videos.
So far youtube & vimeo scale perfectly fine. Tumblr moderators are approving my code right now so you’re going to have to wait a bit for the release. In the meantime you can check out the scaling on my page.
Haha...
Theme fixed
Did some troubleshooting tonight to fix how my theme’s scaling was all wonky in Safari. After sucking up my pride and downloading Safari to test the new coding, IT WORKS! Link’ll be up soon.
EDIT: All you Safari users should do me a favor and go to my tumblr to see if it’s fixed for you too.
EDIT: Download “Six To Close” 1.2
Release Notes: //1.2// -Fixed wonky...

Excuse the crapiness of the last 3 posts and this next one. That’s all thanks to my Yashica Electro’s A/P metering going kaputt.

My Yashica Electro is jacked up aperture priority wise. Which is the main way it functions… So I’m retiring it to a strict diet of 1/125. Set it to flash so it basically becomes a manual camera with only one shutter speed.
WatchYou will never see me do an unoriginal post ever again. This deserved it.
Illustration teacher just reminded me that I never cashed my check for a contest I placed 3rd or 4th in last summer. They’re gonna write me up a new one. ALL of that is going towards film. ~14 rolls of 120mm 400TX thanks to my neglect.

Anonymous asked: how did u create ur them and what did you use to create it with i want to learn how to create themes yours ius nice btw
On another note: I should probably wash my hands more after developing film before I go eating boxes of graham crackers haha.
Just developed a roll of 120. I used a flash with that whole roll so lets hope I measured the flash output correctly.
Oh and my 10 rolls of 120 Tri-X came. Looking forward to spending a lot of quality time with my Yashica A.

Made my own theme →
I spent all day tweaking this theme. Re-coding and re-coding. Designing and designing.
I decided that I shouldn’t be the only one to be able to use a nice theme with features of that premium “Hi-Res” theme.
I present, “6 to Close”. Images are maxed at 800px wide & they scale proportionally to your browser window. Go ahead, change the size of your window and...

WatchCharcoal / Chalk
Still getting use to this new webcam and getting the colors to show right and what not. Changed settings when I added the white chalk because the lamp was making the shading the disappear.
