    This might be considered too plain-Jane, but I’ll put it out there anyway. Would love feedback and suggestions.

    Vandertech provides IT support service mostly to CT but also to Western MA and a few remote locations. We’d like to use X as the theme platform for many more website gigs. I’m playing with the ICON stack right now. I’d really like to introduce more color and graphics with that sweet parallax effect. Right now I’m focused on SEO. Happy to take any suggestions there too.

    I’d also recommend using Better WordPress Minify for js and css minifcation. Really helped our YSlow rating at vandertech.

    @ Mike S –

    Great looking site Mike, nice work!

    I definitely need to get up to speed on all the cool effects & how to actually implement them. If there were only 48 hours in a day… Ha!

    Thanks for submitting all the examples everyone. Lookin’ good!

    I’m going to look through the showcase, having just purchased the theme, but if there are any users who have created a solid “magazine” type theme with Theme X, please point me in the direction of your sites!!

    I’m about 30% finished updating the site to X, but I’m loving the theme so far.

    Ryan – great job – where are you hosting? http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/b1RVvh/http://www.dbband.org/ you are loading 5mb homepage is 1 second – that is great performance and one of my main concerns with this theme is homepage speed loads – yours is really pretty fast

    AJ – Thanks. I’m hosting with Bluehost. Using the total cache plugin, but the real speed boost came after I enabled cloudflare, which has made it at least 3-4 times faster.

    Hey all,
    I like your sites… I haven’t worked on this kind of stuff for ages, so I’m just messing around right now. Cool theme for sure. Please let me know what you guys think – http://russjamieson.com/
    It’s just a basic blog, and I am working on content.
    I am also working an issue with my sidebar on the main page, but it works on all other pages, so just pretend it’s there 🙂
    I don’t mind constructive criticism at all.

    Hi Ryan,

    Nice work. Are you using the free version of Cloudflare or you subscribed to a paid version?

    Free version through Bluehost. Rocket Loader is turned on, which made even more significant speed improvements.
