 * Hello,
 * My website that I am working on has a page I made for Projects, [http://mbmfabricators.com/u-of-m-frieze-building/projects/](http://mbmfabricators.com/u-of-m-frieze-building/projects/)
 * I would like all the clickable project pictures to be in 3 columns, and as I 
   keep adding the project pictures they automatically go into the colums.
 * Could someone please advise me how to make this happen, right now as I am adding
   the pics, they are defaulting to one column and I do not see where to change 
   this.
 *  Thanks in advance for any help.
    Karen

 * Best way is to use Twitter Bootstrap which is the underlying framework to Czr.
 * Start reading [here ](http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/)and come back if you need
   more help.

 * Do you mean just read about bootstrap and how to use it? I don’t need to download
   it right? it is already working in the background on customizr?

 * No, you don’t need to download, it’s already embedded in the theme. Just use 
   the classes and it will all fall down into place, responsively.

 * Do I download a grid template onto the projects page so that pics will line up
   in 3 columns instead of one?

 * You just need to start coding HTML! Be brave…
 * Here’s some pseudo-code to give you a clue. Just add to a blank Page.
 *     ```
       <div class="container">
   
       <div class="row-fluid">
         <div class="span12">
          <div class="span4">
            <img>xxxxxxx</img>
          </div>
          <div class="span4">
            <img>xxxxxxx</img>
          </div>
          <div class="span4">
            <img>xxxxxxx</img>
          </div>
         </div>
       </div>
   
       </div>
       ```
   
 * I’d suggest you try something simple just to get the hang of it, and then the
   world’s your oyster!

 * If I paste this code in the style CSS will that work?
 * <div class=”container”>
    <ul class=”nav nav-pills”> <li class=”active”> [Home](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/making-columns/?output_format=md#)
 *  <div class=”row”>
    <div class=”col-lg-2″> ID </div> <div class=”col-lg-2″> Name
   </div> <div class=”col-lg-8″> E-Mail </div> </div> <div class=”row”> <div class
   =”col-lg-2″> 100001 </div> <div class=”col-lg-2″> Joe </div> <div class=”col-
   lg-8″> [MamiePVillalobos@teleworm.us](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/making-columns/MamiePVillalobos@teleworm.us?output_format=md)
   </div> </div> <div class=”row”> <div class=”col-lg-2″> 100 </div> <div class=”

 * No, because it’s HTML, not CSS. So just go to your Dashboard>Pages>Add New. Call
   it something (Test). Add the code. View Page.
 * Then you can add the Page to your Menu via Dashboard>Appearance>Menus.
 * You’d then use the CustomCSS panel to style it. So look for the classes eg .col-
   lg-8 {color: red; margin: 10px 10px; }
 * Use row-fluid rather than row if you want it to be responsive, ie work on smaller
   viewports like smartphones.
 * And so on…
 * You might find this [Guide ](http://www.themesandco.com/customizr/guide-css-html-customizr-wordpress-theme/)
   worth a quick scan.

 * This isn’t CSS. It’s html, to go in your pages, not your your stylesheet.
 * The html you are giving above is for the bootstrap V3, whereas the underlying
   bootstrap for Customizr is 2.3.2. The scaffolding for BS 2.3.2 is described [here](http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/scaffolding.html).
   BS V3 turned it all a bit on its head, so it’s not relevant here.
 * There’s an extraneous `<div class="span12">` in Dave’s code above. What you need
   for _**each row**_ of 3 columns of images is:
 *     ```
       <!-- ******************NEW ROW OF CONTENT****************** -->
       <div class="row-fluid">
   
       <div class="span4">
       INSERT YOUR IMAGE HERE
       </div>
   
       <div class="span4">
       INSERT YOUR IMAGE HERE
       </div>
   
       <div class="span4">
       INSERT YOUR IMAGE HERE
       </div>
   
       </div>
       <!-- ***************END OF ROW OF CONTENT****************** -->
       ```
   
 * However, from the example code you’ve posted above, it doesn’t look like you’re
   trying to add 3 columns of images, as you indicated in your first post. Have 
   things changed?

 * Hi ElectricFeet, Thanks for responding, this is where I found the code
    [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18204805/cant-create-columns-with-twitter-bootstrap](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18204805/cant-create-columns-with-twitter-bootstrap)
 * Yes I still want 3 columns. I don’t know why I thought that was for 3, I was 
   trying to work while the Kids were home for the umteenth snow day & my brain 
   is a bit fried. Plus the fact I am attempting something I have no business messing
   with.
 * I am going over to the website right now [http://mbmfabricators.com/](http://mbmfabricators.com/)
   to try what you and rdellconsulting have suggested.
 * Thank you again, Karen
 * And I REALLY hope the Kids have school tomorrow!!!!!

 * [@lawlessvintage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lawlessvintage/): you’ll
   be fine, kids notwithstanding 🙂 It’s looking good already.
 * To make the slider super-professional, crop all your slider images to 1170×500.
 * Good luck with the snow and site.
