what is a photo grid
#
Loqi
photo grid is a visual display of a series of photo posts, typically 3 in a column, where only the photo of the post is visible, omitting the text https://indieweb.org/photo_grid
#
[tantek]
GWG start there ^
#
GWG

How's this? I just bumped it up quickly with some cut and paste CSS. Needs work.
#
KartikPrabhu
GWG: that looks great
#
GWG
I'm going to port it over to my main site, where I have a lot more pictures and see what it looks like
#
GWG
Not bad for a first effort
#
KartikPrabhu
it actually is very good. I would be pretty happy with what you have
#
GWG
Didn't quite work out on my main site.
#
KartikPrabhu
what didn't work. that look very nice to me
#
GWG
On the test site, the portrait photos ended up 2x2 and the landscape full width. Here they didn't.
#
GWG
Oh...forgot to force refresh to reload the CSS
#
GWG
Never mind
#
KartikPrabhu
yeah they are auto-arranging according to their aspect ratio I think
#
GWG
Looks fine now
#
GWG
Except for that old polaroid
#
GWG
But polaroids are the exception, rather than the rule
#
KartikPrabhu
you use a lot of nested rules for your CSS which you might want to avoid
#
GWG
KartikPrabhu: Oh?
#
KartikPrabhu
".photogrid ul li img" can just be ".photogrid img"

Something is a bit off on mobile - they're just wider than the viewport horizontally
#
GWG
As I said, not bad for a first try, but I think I need to tweak it more.
#
KartikPrabhu
the former increases the CSS specificity which makes it harder to overrule the CSS later
#
GWG
I just uploaded that old polaroid to my test site, so I can fiddle a bit more.
#
GWG
[KevinMarks]: Really? I just checked mine.
#
KartikPrabhu
it is the horizontal margin on the <ul> element which is causing the images to shift a bit outside viewport

There, tried a bit of a change. from a 40vh to a 35vh. I think it looks slightly better
#
GWG
I fixed the microformats

This is interesting - apparently content analysis works for blocking ad serving. https://branded.substack.com/p/inside-the-chaos-of-brand-safety

GWG: [jeremycherfas] left you a message 6 hours, 19 minutes ago: Looks good on mobile and responsiveness is excellent.
#
[jgmac1106]
gwg you should spin off a theme using that and make a photo centric theme
#
GWG
Not sure what would make a good photo centric theme
