Hi all, I have read and re-read the documentation about grids, and I am still flummoxed. I am trying to fix my “About” page, which contains a few paragraphs of text on the left and a photo of me (don’t laugh 🙂) on the right:

As you can see, my photo is protruding outside the grid box and the container in which it is enclosed. I set this page up several months ago, and it was constructed using instructions I got here in the forums, but I can’t locate that thread anymore. If I remember correctly, this page did not have this problem with I first constructed it , so I don’t know what happened since then. Here are my Columns and Rows settings:

What am I doing wrong? Can anyone instruct me on how to fix this?

My guess is that you’re setting a pixel width on the image (and shouldn’t be).

Here’s a quick video I recorded for you that is a bit of a deeper dive on building the grid and column layout that matches your website 🙂

That did it! Thanks, Dan!! (And this time, I downloaded your video so I can immediately refer to it in the future if needed!)
