 * Hello,
 * I have a situation where I have several small thumbnails of the faces of instructors.
   We want to give people the opportunity to click on the thumbnails and see a larger
   description about each person. The problem is that when I set it to show description,
   it locks it into the width of the image itself, causing it to stretch very tall.
 * Is there a way to make the description box dimensions independent from the image
   itself?
 * Here is the old website for inspiration on what I’m trying to do:

   to see the link]_
