 * Hi. I am using the following code to get and display thumbnails from a custom
   field valued “the_field”. It works fine, but when I have too many of these thumbnails
   it breaks my design. How do I limit the output from the code below to a certain
   amount and force the following output on a new line?
 *     ```
       <?php $the_field=get_post_meta($post->ID,"the_output",false); ?>
   
       <?php foreach($the_field as $the_output)
       {
       list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($the_output);
       ?>
       <img src="<?php echo $the_output;?>" <?php echo $attr; ?> alt="">
       <?
   
       }?>
       ```
   
 * Any help would be higly appreciated!

 * Try adding a class to the image markup then use CSS to float the images left (
   or right). That way, they’ll wrap within the content area automatically.
