# [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Aligning thumbnails

 * I’ve just installed nextgen gallery and it appears to be just the plugin I have
   been looking for. Can anyone explain how I can align thumbnails. The photos in
   my galleries and albums in portrait and landscape mode and not all photos have
   the same dimension ratio. How can I get my thumbnails displayed in a table with
   aligned columns and rows without ignoring aspect ratio? I know this will result
   in more whitespace around some thumbnails, but is there a way to do this? All
   help is highly appreciated, thanks :))

 * Ah, now I understand what you mean! The page is currently on a locked demo-site,
   but I can email you a screenshot if you don’t mind? Just need your address…

 * I’m not sure I’m allowed to put up my email address. It would be better if you
   uploaded the image somewhere and posted a link. Don’t rush, it’s late here (Australia)
   so I’m off to bed now.

 * Hi All. I’m having problems with Thumbnails in Explorer 8. They are not placed
   in the frames. If I use other browsers it’s not a problem. Is there some kind
   of extra plug-in for that?

 * Hi Mikeg9999, The pin is: 7130
 * Might it be the stylesheet that needs editing?

 * Your images already seem (to me) to be aligned to the left and top.
 * Yes, styling of the image container/box can be done by editing the css – maybe
   in class ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box?
 * I played around with firebug to view your gallery and adding a gap between the
   rows looked good to me. I think thats done in css with padding-bottom:10px; (
   for example).
 * You could always put the landscape images in one gallery and the portrait ones
   in another and display them on the same page.

 * Thanks Mikeg9999, I have been trying to centre-align the thumbnails by editing
   various parts of the css, but without luck. I’ll try your suggestion with padding-
   bottom and having separate galleries for landscape and portrait pictures. Thanks!

 * Google ‘aligning images html’ – I saw an article that said ‘its not as easy as
   you think’ and gave a css+html way of doing it.
