Hi everyone. Most of my articles are lists or countdowns, where I typically have a a picture of something and talk about it in a text capsule. I put the picture in a half-width capsule because I believe that having 6 or 7 full length pictures, plus all the text capsules, would make the article a hassle to scroll through.
However, I'm aware HubPages advises using full-length pictures. What do you feel would look better in this case? Thanks!
Hi! I do similar hubs with lists from time to time, and I try to do a mixture of full-length and half-width pictures. Actually, the majority of my "list" articles have that format...for each entry on the list there might be one full-length photo, two half-widths and then another full-length. You don't have to do it that way, but I actually do think it looks nicer to have a mix, rather than just a bunch of half-width photos floating along the side, haha. I hope that helps!
I checked out some of your articles - it's an interesting format I'll have to experiment with! Thanks for the advice!

Apologies in advance for asking a question I should know the answer to, but I just can't keep track anymore, and the search function is not yielding any helpful results.When writing new hubs or updating old ones, is it now recommended to place photos and videos so they take up the full width of the...

In looking over my edited hubs, I find many inconsistencies. Some hubs will be changed so that all large photos are seen (for mobile viewers?), others will be changed into thumbnails, others not changed at all. Some photos are moved above the text capsule, others below. What does HP now consider to...

It appears that some editors (not all) automatically change all photos to full width when moving a hub to a niche site, even when it makes the hub less appealing in desktop view. Am I correct in thinking that if the hub author has checked to make sure that half-width photos appear correctly in...

The biggest issue I have with all capsules having to be full width is that there now seems to be no provision for sidebar content. I've had to eliminate several sidebar text capsules because although they have supplementary information that would be useful for the reader, they just can't be fitted...

Question: When the date comes that photo capsules will automatically morph into full-width, will we still know which hubs were affected, so we can do any needed 'clean up?'As of now, this notice is shown at the top of our listing of hubs:"All Capsules Will Soon Be Full WidthPlease stop...

Hi everybody - would you mind just clarifying what size the first photograph on your hub should be - is it 800 x 800 pixels? Thank you so much for your help. And, I am really sorry if this is super obvious and there are a gazillion forum topics etc. about it already. I have been looking and have...
