Locust Street Marketplace, a resell shop of antiques and other high-demand items, wanted a site that was lean and to the point.  Their clientele are primarily not power computer users, and either want the location of a relatively off-the-beaten-path store, to contact the shop ownership, or to view the updated-weekly gallery of pictures.  The latter purpose is maybe the most important part of the site – every week a shop employee takes a digital photo of every item in the store, so that frequent customers can see what is new in their quickly changing inventory.

I accomplished these goals by using a simple, light theme, modified extensively to meet their needs.  We then added in the Contact Form plugin to make it easy and customizable to stay in touch with their clients.  Then, after much searching, we decided upon the really marvelous NextGEN gallery plugin to make it easy for the client to batch upload pictures.  This process used to take a couple of hours, and now can be accomplished in less than 15 minutes.
