    Hey guys, here is one I started for a friend little while back, http://www.on-time-watch.com My friend wanted to stick with his Go Daddy hosting vs what I offer, so it is a bit slower on the load time.

    Also waiting on some blog post, more content and elements for sidebars. But overall I like the look and feel of it.

    I’m finally getting comfortable with most of this theme’s many features and feeling pleased with the look of my site. I want to thank all those who’ve helped me figure out the little things that brought me to this point. It’s a work in progress. I’m going to keep learning, and with that information I’ll be able to more professionally present my content.

    Here’s what I’ve got so far. It’s a pretty basic pro-wrestling site. http://www.refbumpreview.com

    Hey Mike, nice site!

    Where are you hosting the background video? On WP? I’ve been having trouble with hosting background videos … any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

    Thanks,

    Isaac

    Great site guys!

    @Isaac, you could try using host that support streaming. Using self hosted videos were slower than with streaming, and must be in playable format.

    Great stuff amber :). Clean and cool! Though carousel doesn’t match the look and feel of your content, hmm maybe because of bright color 🙂 It’s Nice!

    that’s true! I’ve changed it from most commented to ‘featured’ – I think that’s a bit better now 🙂

    We have started a fitness and nutrition based blog but have yet to add any fancy effects to it, preferring the simple, minimal look of the icon stack.

    Still looking for a way to switch the posts to excerpts while retaining an image within the excerpt though!

    Looking good, Darren! You can control how big/small the excerpt is by going in the Customizer to Blog > Content then setting the number of characters you want for the excerpt.
