Changing the Thumbnails
Anyone visiting the Cards by Gilly “Online Handmade Card Store” during the next few days will notice that we are changing over the thumbnails images in the Card Store.
When we first set up the Original Online Store we experimented a bit with different image sizes and styles of thumbnails. For the original site 200 x 200 pixel cut outs from each card seemed to work quite well we thought and was quite attractive (example below).
However, now we have implemented the new design for the old style 200 x 200 cut outs didn’t seem to look as good. We have been looking at the styles and sizes again and for the new layout we are now using 100 x 150 pixel thumbnails of the whole card (example below).
We think this looks much clearer. Clicking on the thumbnail will now take visitors to a larger 200 x 300 pixel image of the card together with the description of the card.
