What Inspiro is
A video and photography theme with a full-screen hero.
It sits in the photography part of the theme market and is sold by WPZOOM on a freemium basis. A theme decides your layout, your typography and a large slice of your page weight, so it is the hardest thing on a WordPress site to change later.
Before you commit, record a speed test of your current site, then run the same test after you switch, on the same page, so you can see exactly what the new theme costs you.

Pros and cons

- 2Upload compressed images at the maximum size the layout actually displays.
- 3Build galleries with the theme's gallery template rather than raw blocks.
- 4Turn on lazy loading for anything below the fold.
- 5Check a gallery page on a phone connection, not just desktop.
