Image List

Using For this version of Sitecore rows and columns are used to add images.  The two methods of this are the Image List component and the Image Grid component. The Image List allows for two display methods of either landscape (the default) or portrait. Images will always be left justified next to text.  For the Image Grid images are not accompanied by a paragraph of text but by a title and a text overlay. These features take the place of the Column Builder and adding images through the Rich Text Editor.
