How can I make thumbnail images in Webflow's Static Page called HOME 2 the same size without affecting their responsive aspect?
TL;DR
- Wrap each image in a responsive div with a consistent aspect ratio using percentage-based width and height.
- Set the image to 100% width and height with object-fit: cover to maintain uniform sizing and responsiveness.
To make thumbnail images on your Webflow static page "HOME 2" appear the same size while keeping them responsive, you need to control their container dimensions and set appropriate image styling. Here's how to do it:
1. Use a Uniform Image Container
- Wrap each image in a Div Block and give the Div a class, such as
thumbnail-wrapper. - Set the same width and height for each container. Use relative units like % or vw/vh to keep it responsive.
- Example: set
width: 100%andaspect ratio: 1 / 1for a square, orpadding-top: 75%for a 4:3 ratio.
2. Set Image to Cover the Container
- Inside the container, add the image element and set its class, such as
thumbnail-image. - Apply the following styles to the image:
- Width: 100%
- Height: 100%
- Object-fit: cover
This keeps images scaled and cropped uniformly without distortion, maintaining their responsive behavior.
3. Avoid Image Distortion
- Do not manually set fixed pixel sizes (like 200px by 300px) on the image itself; use percentage or “auto” values so layout remains fluid.
- Always use object-fit: cover or contain, depending on whether you prefer cropping (cover) or showing the whole image (contain).
4. Check Parent Grid or Flex Layout
- If you're displaying thumbnails in a grid or flexbox, ensure the parent container has a consistent layout:
- Use a CSS Grid or Flex layout with defined gaps and wrap options.
- Ensure all image boxes follow the same class structure.
Summary
Wrap each image in a consistently sized responsive div, then set the image to fill the container using object-fit: cover. This ensures all thumbnails look uniform in size while remaining responsive across devices.
