How To: Posting Multiple Photos on one line—no Photoshop needed!

I've been updating and filling up the reserves over at Beautify My Blog. Specifically the How To section. Here is a tip I posted today. The abbreviated version is below.

If you want to post 2 or more photos on one line, but don't want to "collage them" (like I've done HERE), you can use this method. Usually it takes a little math. But because I hate math myself, I'll spare you that part. This was originally written to accommodate a wider layout (but I include it for Minima, too). To widen your layout yourself, visit HERE. Here are the values you'll need:

Wider layout: Your blog's "main wrapper," or posting space, is 650px. So if you are posting 2 photos, they need to each be 310px wide, with a space bar "space" in between.

Basic Minima Blogger layout: the magic number is 195.

I just saved you a big math headache. I love you, too.

Now, follow these steps:

1. Upload your photos with the settings as "none" under layout, and "large" for the size:

2. Click on your HTML tab. You will need to delete the height—including the semi colon after it—of each photo (below in orange), and then enter the value of the width in place of the original width (below in purple). It will look like this (if you have a basic Minima template, your width will be "195px"):

3. Click back on your Compose tab and see the results. I had to add a space between the two, and voila! Two on one line. You may have to tweak this a little bit to get the exact size and spacing, but once you determine the right size for two images (or three, etc.), make a note of it!
