Responsive Question

I have a portfolio site where a modal window opens to display larger images of the selected thumbnail. I made it somewhat responsive by using media queries and setting certain heights based on average screen resolutions I found online.

I would like to know if there is a better way to do this so it automatically adjusts the modal window's height.

You can set the max-height to a %, I think, and it should scale. You can try vh as your units if you want. Rare, but may work!
