Image List and Image Grid

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. It should be noted that the Image List and/or Image Grid cannot be created as the first component. Only Hero Banner, Slideshow, and Video can be used as first components. 


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.
