I picked the Border theme because I wanted a theme for photography (and other things) with a clean, elegant design. My site looks a lot more professional now and does a much better job of showing off my work.

The team at Pixelgrade also provided excellent support. When I pointed out a (small) bug in displaying photo captions under certain circumstances, they gave me an immediate fix to add to the theme css.

The only downside I might mention about using the theme is you do need to be cognizant that building a site with big galleries capable of displaying images at high resolution is going to chew up more resources. It caused me to pay more attention to site tuning than I have in the past.

I loved the theme, and although I was a bit disappointed that its upgrade changed the overall look quite significantly, I’m still happy with it.

The customer service I’ve received when there was a problem was immediate and extremely helpful

1. I liked the look of the theme.
2. Conflict between some plugins and the theme; limitations in terms of customization.
3. I would recommend your product – my site looks great and a lot of that is down to the template.

I bought this theme because I find it beautiful in its design, and it fits well with my personality …
At the start of the installation it was laborious, but thanks to the Pixelgrade team, everything was repaired with an update.
I do not regret this purchase at all. Another big thank you to you for your attention and your responsiveness.
Best regards,
Davian

Great service! Very quick and helpful support. Enjoying the service and knowing that there is someone thinking along. Some issues where bugged on the system side, but it took me a while to realise this (and not searching in my own faults). That got solved quickly, too.

I’ve set up over half a dozen websites between over the years for my photography and production agency. This has by far been the easiest and quickest to build while not sacrificing on usability. Everything works straight out of the box and the quick easy access pop up self help box makes any hurdle easy to jump over.

  • What will I need to use this theme?

    You will need your own domain and a web hosting with the current WordPress version installed. To make things easier for you, we recommend the Flywheel hosting company.

  • Can I customize the themes?

    Yes, all of our themes are licensed under GPL (like Word­Press itself), so you can cus­tomize them with no restric­tions. Feel free to adapt it to your own writing or business needs!

  • Do I need to purchase any plugins?

    This theme does not need premium plugins to configure it as showcased in the demo. Some plugins might require premium licenses for advanced features but that’s not a requirement.

  • Does this theme use a page builder?

    You should be able to run any page builder of your choice (Elementor, Divi, Visual Composer or others) with no problem. All this said we didn't use one when creating this theme.

  • Can I use the themes for client work?

    If it’s just one client, sure. If you’re a freelancer or a small agency that wants to create multiple websites for clients, you can pick the Themes Bundle plan and have unlimited access to all of our themes to build as many websites that you want.

  • What is your refund policy?

    Although we don’t think you’ll ever want a refund, our goal is always to be fair and reasonable. The refund policy is not any different: we offer a 14–days no‐risk money back guarantee on all of our themes. No questions asked!
