The Cute Cat Conundrum

[Joel R]

So I just discovered something on my IP.Board, which will affect anyone who uploads photos to their posts (which I'm assuming is pretty much everyone at some point).  Apparently, the editor in IP.Board will use a vertical layout as default display of image attachments.

In other words, if you do not manually add the image into your post, the editor will vertically parse these images.  

I have a problem with that.  I call it the cute cat conundrum: that while I love cute cats, I want the cuteness bundled together in a horizontal layout for maximum cuteness so it doesn't take up too much space.  Kittens are only cute when they're all together.  I certainly DONT want the cats stretching on and on, which will remind me of their incessant breeding capabilities.

Just to prove my point, here are 99 photos of cute cats that were left as uploaded images and not manually added into the post.

I don't care HOW cute these cats are.  This is too much.  

P.S.  Did anyone notice the Mountain Lynx and the Hamster that snuck in?

Cuteness overload!

yea i see what your saying,

so ideally specified placements would be where you placed them. 

then un-placed images should be some kind of "smart grid" heck even a "pinterest" style grid style

or perhaps even an something like this http://community.invisionpower.com/files/file/7481-latest-updated-files/

but inline attached to that users post.

The app Gallery should be taking over here .. for every picture posted wherever on the site .. group or single ..

LightBox can do it, I mean also the heavier lightbox version that can handle image bundles .. why not our app Gallery that can stick her nose into everything related with pictures .. then there is finally a clear view why members are using Gallery .. Members have already an "Album" = button "insert other media" > "insert excising attachment" .. why is this not related with Gallery ? ..
