Big Picture by HTML5 UP

This is Big Picture, a simple, single page responsive site template by HTML5 UP.
So I've been on a single page kick as of late, partly because I'm lazy, but
mostly because they kick ass for experimentation. In this case, Big Picture
makes heavy use of my (tentatively named and soon to be released) "scrollgress"
and "scrollwatch" jQuery plugins to pull off some interesting effects as you
scroll around the page. In addition to said interesting effects, Big Picture
also includes a nice lightbox-style gallery, styling for basic page elements,
and thoroughly commented code for your editing pleasure (with instructions!
-- see below).
Many thanks to my good friends Felicia Simion (ineedchemicalx.deviantart.com)
and Michael Domaradzki (md.photomerchant.net) for allowing me to use their amazing
photos in Big Picture's demo*.

PS: Not sure how to get that contact form working? Give formspree.io a try (it's awesome).
Instructions:
Overview:
Being a single pager, Big Picture should be way simpler to work with than
some of the heavier stuff I've released in the past. In fact, aside from
a main page <header> and <footer>, it's pretty much just a stack of "main"
<section> elements that follow the same basic pattern:
<section id="foobar" class="main">
<div class="content container">
<header>
<h2>Foobar</h2>
</header>
...
</div>
</section>
The section can then be assigned a style class to determine its basic
look (and, in some cases, its behavior):
style1
Centered content with an oversized <h2>. Works best when
paired with a background image or color.
style2 left
Content in a box, anchored to the left side of the window. Works
best when paired with a background image or color. If you have
"useSectionTransitions" turned on in your settings, the box will
slide into view from the left.
style2 right
Content in a box, anchored to the right side of the window. Works
best when paired with a background image or color. If you have
"useSectionTransitions" turned on in your settings, the box will
slide into view from the right.
style3 primary
Used for generic content. Set against the primary background
color (default is white).
style3 secondary
Used for generic content. Set against the secondary background
color (default is a light gray).
Oh, and there are a few (well, two) optional modifier classes you can
tack on for additional effects:
dark
Flips the content's color scheme so it shows up better
against darker background images and colors.
fullscreen
Makes the section fill the entire window (only if "useFullScreen"
is enabled in your settings).
Lightbox Gallery:
The actual gallery function is powered by my Poptrox plugin. For info on
how that works, go here: github.com/ajlkn/jquery.poptrox
Each image (the '...' bit in the above examples) should look like this:
<article class="from-(direction)">
<a href="path/to/fullsize.jpg" class="image fit">
<img src="path/to/thumbnail.jpg" title="This is the image caption." alt="" />
</a>
</article>
The "from-(direction)" class indicates the direction from which the image should
slide into view, and can be any of the following:
from-left
from-right
from-bottom
from-left
You can also just remove the "from-(direction)" class if you don't want that particular
image to slide into view (in which case it'll simply fade in).
Contact Form:
To get this working, place a script on your server to receive the form data, then
point the "action" attribute to it (eg. action="http://mydomain.tld/mail.php").
More on how it all works here: 1stwebdesigner.com/tutorials/custom-php-contact-forms
Icons:
Powered by Font Awesome. Go here for a full listing of all the icons you can use:

Other Stuff:
- If you don't like the way images are tinted, either change "images/overlay.png"
to something else, or remove all references to it from css/style.css.
