Only 4 and half years ago.
Probably just the size of the images.Loads fast second time for me due to caching.
There probably better ways to handle it from a performance point of viw, ( maybe not use backstretch at all ). Use css 'cover' for the first image and then delay loading of a js script to load after.

.bg-primary .site-header { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.2); border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.3); }The last 0.2 means 20% opacity on 0,0,0 (black)

Rogerp- I'll post you some CSS
Mortical - I'll ask the site owner - which country is your client in?

I don't think you are understanding the issue very well, obviously I haven't made it really clear, let me try and explain.
The hamburger menu display under 800px, 500px was just and example.
between 800px and some larger size (can't recall) the menu is a horizontal list.
The responsiveness all works fine.
When you have a view of the hamburger menu (i.e. 799px or less ) try a refresh.
Momentarily the horizontal menu (800px+ ) displays before it is replaced by the hamburger menu. The amount of time that the horizontal menu displays varies of course by factors such as line speed and device speed.
Normally a theme is written to hide the larger menu on initiation so it doesn't flash up before it is replaced by the hamburger.
This error is a mater of fact and exists in the demo screen.

Hi you have to go to the actual demo url http://demo.studiopress.com/sixteen-nine/ as the was studiopress is iframing now means studio press loads first.
Set your browser to about 500px go to http://demo.studiopress.com/sixteen-nine/
I can clearly see the 'mid sized' menu flash up for a fraction of a second before the hamburger appears on a 100meg line. Try it on a phone or slow connection and it is frustratingly obvious.

lol - yes I asked them first! They said, na - don't have a fix, see if the forum knows how. Or words to that effect, initially quite condescending, telling me that they don't do theme customisation and if I need some I should get some help (as if I haven't been a developer for a million years) and that I should ask on the forum. Which I explained back, that I wasn't looking for customisation, that as far as I could see this was a bug.
"Hi Alan,
Please accept my apology for not handling your request better.
Since we don't have a fix at the moment, my suggestion to visit the forum was an attempt to help should you want to write some code that will cause the menu to behave differently.
We appreciate you taking the time to report this issue and I will pass your message on to our development team for their review.
If there is anything else we can do to help, please let us know.
Have a great day and thank you again for being a StudioPress Customer."Haven't had any follow up

Hi
Based on http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/entry-header/
it would be genesis_entry_header_markup_open and genesis_entry_header_markup_close for html5

What I did,was just leave the widget title blank, and checked 'show page title' as the sequence is 'widget title' 'image' 'post title' 'post content'

Sort of in the same way as I do in http://quantabay.com/ ?

Hi the wordpress codex explains how to customise (and add links) to these tags
https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More
You probably need this section

Hi @nhed
What you are seeing is an except more text rather than content more text which is a subtle difference.
the [...] elsipse represent that there is more to follow, not actually a more link.
However, I agree it isn't user friendly on badlywired (on M&W it had a big READ MORE button underneath) , you can customise it the codex explains how https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More
I have done this now on badlywired
// Replaces the excerpt "more" text by a link function new_excerpt_more($more) { global $post; return '<a class="moretag" href="'. get_permalink($post->ID) . '"> [Read the full article...]</a>'; } add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');

Not a lot. In fact I think (but not sure) that isotope uses jquery masonry for its masonry effects.

What is the definition of 'best'?
Does your client have good image content or good text content or both?
What is the business objective of the client? Is it a landing page to be used from paid advert campaigns? Or a conversion path site? Or an educational site?
It is impossible to do web design in a vacuum. There is no 'one size fits all'.

Its not tough. (but its not a page layout you want but a post layout'
Based on your requirements, I'd use ' post formats'. So you get an option in the side bar and I would use if you selected 'image' then it would use the big image layout.
Then it is a matter of 'tweaking' the layout code to display the big image.
Probably about 1 hours work for an experienced web dev. (or less if they were already familiar with your site / had all the logins etc, it often take 20 minutes of 'conversation' to get the right access and 20 minutes to work out what the previous web dev has actually done)

It is easier if you change things before you start creating the site.
Widgets store options based on theme name.
Create a COPY of the theme you have created. Rename the folder. Rename everything in it.
Before you 'activate' the new theme get a Widget Export / Import plugin installed
Export the widget settings
Change the theme
Import the widget settings

My mistake I left in the featured content element
.page-template-page_blog .entry { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; }
