Untitled Themes: Root Stack and photoset layouts →
untitledthemes:
The new Root-Stack theme relies on being responsive and dynamically adjustable, which means posts need to quickly adapt to new sizes both from user input and content types. Unfortunately, by default photosets are based within iframes and are given fixed widths (250px, 400px and 500px), therefore…
