Hi Creatorofstuff,

First just to make sure its clear (cause I used swift in my username): I’m not associated with the developers.
For the ratio’s its basically just an aesthetics’s issue since the theme has been styled with certain layout dimensions in mind. I actually tried a landscape image to see what it looks like after thinking about what you said and it’s actually quite good 🙂 …I imagine that the documentation just mentions this so that the styling is overly different to what the designer intended.

For the case of mixed product image orientation the biggest issue is in the multiple listings (as the single product page handles either orientation just fine). So with the full listing [http://themeforest.net/item/neighborhood-responsive-multipurpose-shop-theme/full_screen_preview/5086341] images will be cropped to maintain the layout. Therefore to make it work I’d probably just have the landscape images defining the max width for the portrait orientation and then at least there is some consistency. Most theme’s don’t have an elegant solution for this. The best I can figure is the List view mode some offer.

Probably worth loading up the sample data and then just swapping in a landscape image. Your results of that would also help me greatly 🙂

Hey guys,

Just purchased. Trying to install demo data on localhost and Server. Neither work nor the XML file provided in the link above. I can see that the file I just downloaded from the Forest has your dev site in it. But can’t find the problem that’s doing an Internal Server Error. All settings are correct as per your instructions.

Oh too, I appreciate quality sample content but some of this stuff is way big and probably not helping as we try to import.

Hope this gets fixed soon cause its a STUNNING THEME!!! 🙂

Hey creatorofstuff,

Yes the theme’s layout requires images of that dimension. Retina are just 2x that. But overall the ratio must be maintained.
Have you been able to load the example content (using import?)
