There doesn’t seem to be much hope of the Elements photo album page achieving the same functionality of Classic.

So I would request that the edit mode thumbs be larger in the Classic Photo album page.

That way you don’t need to switch to preview just to see what you are working with.

Hi @TomM Elements offers a built-in (free) component called [Gallery](https://youtu.be/TxesO6o_DSM?si=L8HNwCNbNy-muS9R&t=532). It works similarly to photogallery. You can also try it with the free version

[here an example online](https://www.multithemes.com/elements/ascent/pages/gallery/)

I need the thumbs to show a combination of horizontal, vertical and square, full frame on one page..

With captions. Just as in Classic.

You can do this manually by creating a grid of images with overlapping text and then [using a MODAL to display both images and text.](https://youtu.be/Ye1Eyfyh3DE?si=729QA6fzTjwaag5g&t=388)  
This is currently the only way with standard tools, but you can achieve something quite similar.

We are in a new environment where we can do some things manually and this allows for much more creativity. [take a look](https://www.multithemes.com/elements/ascent/about/) the vertical column of images

I need captions on the thumbs.

I don’t see, in the examples, the ability to show a combination of horizontal, vertical and square thumbs, full frame on one page.

Additionally, in Classic you can add or delete images anywhere on the page and the page updates automatically.
