Hello,

I'd like to change the layout of the thumbnails on my homepage from what it is now, to something like this:  http://www.pexels.com/

The thumbnail shouldI assume I'll need to change themes, but I don't know which one would be best?

Two main things I'd like:

Sorry about that!    Thumbnail width should be dynamic, based on the photo's resolution.

Can you recommend a solution?  Thank you

Type in Google grid dynamic jquery.

I found this:

Isotope (is made by same person that made the famous mansonry) : http://isotope.metafizzy.co/layout-modes/fitrows.html
packery jquery plugin:  http://packery.metafizzy.co/
freewallpackery http://vnjs.net/www/project/freewall/

I did a very fast read and search of the plugins I listed.
I did not payed attention if it really is what you want.

Thank you, freewall looks perfect. However, I have 2 questions:

1. Is freewall free to use for commercial purposes? I can't find this info

2. I don't see where I place the html code into my template.html file?   Right now my template file has this code to show my gallery:

Code Select
<div id="cpg_main_block_outer">
        <div class="cpg_main_block_inner">
            {GALLERY}
            <br />
        </div>
        </div>

I don't see where I place freewall's code?

Thanks again

Should work like this: add in template.html in the head (<head> </head> section):

<script type="text/javascript" src="themes/matheso/js/freewall.js"></script>

and under {JAVASCRIPT} or before </body>

Code Select

  <script>
    $(function() {
      var wall = new freewall("#thumbWrapp");
      wall.fitWidth();
    });
  </script>
