### 📋 Setup Tip: The "Editorial" Layout
To make Segovia truly shine in 2026:
1. **Consistent Image Ratios:** Because the theme is so minimal, inconsistencies in your portfolio image sizes will be very noticeable. Use a consistent aspect ratio (e.g., 4:3 or 16:9) for all featured images.
2. **Highlight Your Bio:** Use the custom "About Me" widget in the sidebar or footer. For minimal themes, the personal brand behind the work is the most important conversion factor.
3. **Monochrome Accents:** Segovia looks best with a monochromatic or limited color palette. Let your photos provide the color while the theme provides the professional "frame."
