Image Grid Portfolio

#Overview

Introduction: The Image Grid Portfolio component displays a grid of images, ideal for showcasing a portfolio, gallery, or visual content collection. Each image can include a title and description that appears on hover, creating an interactive experience for users. This layout is useful for visually-driven pages where multiple images need to be presented in a structured and engaging way.

Key Features:

• Multi-column grid layout with images organized across three columns.
• Hover effect reveals a title and description overlay, allowing for additional context without cluttering the layout.
• Supports modal pop-ups for a more detailed view of each image when clicked.
• Customizable color scheme and overlay opacity to ensure readability and style alignment.

Best use cases

Examples of Effective Use:

• This section looks best when you have 2,5, or 8 images. This is not a requirement.
• Ideal for portfolio pages, where designers, photographers, or artists can showcase their work in a clean, organized layout.
• Suitable for product galleries, case studies, or image-based testimonials where visual content is essential.
• Works well on homepages or service pages to provide a quick, visual overview of past projects, services, or featured items.

How NOT to use this

Common Missteps:

• Avoid using low-quality images, as they may appear pixelated or unprofessional in a grid layout.
• Do not overload the grid with too many images, as this can make the page load slowly and overwhelm users.
• Ensure that titles and descriptions are brief to prevent the overlay from covering too much of the image.

FAQ, pro tips, and troubleshooting

• Pro Tip: Use high-quality images and concise descriptions for each item to maintain a clean, professional appearance.
• Troubleshooting: If images do not display correctly in the grid, ensure they are optimized for web and maintain consistent dimensions.

Ideas

Suggested Combinations: Pair this component with a "Full Screen Image Hero" at the top of the page to introduce the portfolio, or follow it with a "Colored Call to Action" to encourage users to reach out for more information or services.
