Images Are HUGE
Permalink
I can't seem to get images to display right.
I have two different sites, both running C5 8.2.1 and PHP 7.0.
Here is what I'm talking about . . .

"OH LOVE" theme
This page illustrates two problems: the "logo" is about 4x the actual size of the image and I have no idea why. This is using the standard image block. If you scroll down, you'll also see the page has a thumb gallery that uses the Whale Grid Gallery add-on. (There are several instances of this add-on in the section.) The thumb gallery sits down at the bottom of the page, below the left nav, when it "should" be in the main content area under the page title. I have tried adjusting the number of columns, but all that does is make the thumbs bigger.

ELEMENTAL theme
This one uses a basic image slider with five images. The images are huge. They are randomly cropped. (I don't know why there is no option to, I don't know, show the entire photo instead of one nostril?) And the images are sitting off-kilter within the slider.
Anyone know what the heck is going on here?
FYI I have spent the past few days battling other problems, documented in this thread, in case it's relevant:

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

For Elemental the problem is pretty much the same. You are trying to get a slider with a set width of 1170px inside a container of about 780px. So it's all out of whack
And no your other thread is no indication. These are not Concrete5 problems they are CSS design problems
Okay, so it sounds like I need to use something other than the OH LOVE theme for the one site, and get rid of the $#@! grid gallery add-on that I paid $25 for. OH that makes me mad.
But as for the CSS issues in the default theme and core blocks on the other site . . . I don't know what to do. I haven't touched the code on any of this stuff.
Suggestions?

it is not CSS problems per say. The theme and galley are most likely not at fault.
It's the way you are using them that makes their respective CSS clash with each other.
You might want to ask for either the theme's or the gallery's developer to have a look if they're willing and help you make it work.

And your gallery doesn't go where you want it because it doesn't have a container to allow it to do that. Your sidebar is floated left and has a set width. Your gallery should also float left and have a wide that allows it to move next to the sidebar.
It's going to be difficult though because the sidebar has a width set in pixel while really the width should be set in percent and the max-width in pixels.
