 * If you want a reasonably fixed layout you have to use Justified Grid, but you
   cannot escape getting images in a single column on mobiles if you do it. I wonder
   why you don’t want it though: on a mobile if you present very small thumbnails
   it reduces usability because users will not be able to click on individual thumbnails(
   this is typical responsive behaviour – making things usable on mobiles). You 
   can set a very small size for your tiles to avoid single column layouts, but 
   then even on desktops you will get very small tiles, which again would be undesirable.

 * Not following you. I am seeing no issues with it. Can you provide a screenshot
   of what you are seeing?

 * But not even mobiles version, the images getting in a single column on web browser
   like desktop or ipad.
 * pls see my referral link [http://block09.net/?p=178](http://block09.net/?p=178)–
   the second lightbox is come with one by one.
    Does it have any way to fix it?

 * Consider this:
    1. All your pictures in this gallery have a “landscape” orientation
    2. You have set your “minimum tile height” to 400px, which means you are not allowing
       any photo to be less than 400px tall.
    3. You have set your gallery to be a maximum of 500px. Since you have no “portrait”
       orientation photos, and each landscape photo should be displayed with at least
       a 400px height, you will never get more than 1 photo in any line
 * You have two options: you can remove the `max-width` setting, or you can reduce
   the minimum tile height to something like 150px.
 * I personally am not in favour of either option – one leaves a lot of space on
   the screen and the other creates really small thumbnails, but you understand 
   your site’s visitors the best.

 * Where can i set the max-width and the minimum tile height ?

 * The max-width setting is what you put into the Additional CSS.
 * You have defined the minimum tile height is in _Photonic → Settings → Layouts
   → Random Justified Gallery – Minimum Tile height_, as per the first post in this
   thread.
