5,918 PointsHey Davide,
Why don't you wrap divs around the images and then make those divs width: 33%; This will only allow 3 images on one row at a time.
then you can use media queries to change the amount of images you can have on a line the skinnier your browser gets.
eg.
html:
<div class="img-container"> <img src="thumb-beach.jpg" alt=""> </div>
css:
.img-container { width: 33.333%; }
@media only screen and (max-width: 780px) {
.img-container {
width: 50%;
}
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) {
.img-container {
width: 100%;
}
}
You can also set your image widths inside the .img-container as well to give even more flexibility.
Hope this helps!
