  I would LOVE to see a new FREE photography theme that included this kind of gallery/montage either on it’s front page or after a static front page. This is just absolutely gorgeous! I would definitely use that theme.

  All wordpress.com themes display galleries that way if you select the option “Tiled Mosaic” when you insert a gallery in a post or a static page.
  The default front of Autofocus is also styled that way:

  I just ‘tested’ the Autofocus theme and it doesn’t really display images in their original format in a thumbnail, rather it cuts/slices them into what appears to be a pre formatted size? Not sure why but the ‘try’ view didn’t display my images correctly.

  I do see what you mean though by using the Tiled Mosaic function for a gallery. I hadn’t thought about that. I suppose I could create a very large gallery using that format and make a static front page. That’s something I think I’m definitely going to play around with. Thanks so much for the idea!
