CSS approach to image-gallery baseline on Cargocollective - html

I am building a website on Cargocollective.
I want to change the baseline to top of the image gallery. (Now based on baseline)
When I watch the source through Google inspector, I can find the code right this
but I can't find that css code in cargocollective CSS editing window,
and I don't know how I can approach to that.
help me!
and I want to know make image full to the square. (to be no blank in the square, even if the image is cut off somewhat)
How can I ?

You're using flexbox, wich means items are at the center of the height, if you want to change the baseline you would have to change the height of a row.
Or you could use flex start / flex end to set all images top or bottom
and I want to know make image full to the square
For this you want to research things like cover or contain
src (https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_object-fit.asp)
Make the widht and height like 200px x 200px and make the child as the background. then use cover/contain

Flash slider won't fit screen

I've created a very easy looking slider using Adobe Flash. This is four big pictures containing some text, which will be placed in a HTML-website using Dreamweaver. The size is the problem. The picture is suppose to fit the entire width, and like 50% of the heigh. When I "Preview in browser", it won't fit the screen, and you have to "scroll" around to see the entire picture. Any suggestions?
How the percentage is applied depends on a number of things, some of them being:
Box-sizing
Display value of parent and child
Whether the parent has its width set
Whether the parent and child are in the same flow
Please check against this list to find out what the issue is in your case.

Make all images to be of the same size

On my way on implemented my idea, I am trying to put a lot (toy example: 4) images in one slide of the carousel of Bootstrap. However, I am failing big time on resizing them so that all the images have same characteristics in dimensions, regardless of their original ones.
Here is the jsFiddle where I display the issue in slide 1, and here is just one of the many attempts I made:
img.resize{
width:256px;
height: 256px;
}
You see, I would like the images to all have the same dimensions, for visualization purposes. How to do that?
In other words, what I want is every image to be of the same width x height dimensions. Like we were passing them through a neural layer that would trim the dimensions to make them homogenous, like all of them were placed on the same box! The ideal thing would be to get something like what the search engines give you (where the height is the same for all, and the width might differ a bit, but w.r.t. to visualization that doesn't cause any harm).
Now, the black is shorter than the yellow.
use max-width and set the .item class's height... and overflow: hidden:
Fiddle
4 images in 1 slide: Fiddle. Be aware that with just straight images you won't be able to make them the same size. Well, unless you want them squished and squeezed to look horrible.
If you want all 4 images to appear to be the same size, you need additional markup, such as a div wrapping the image tags. This is how things like Google images does it.... they wrap the image tag in a div, then hide any overflow of that div.
You can't resize 4 images in that current markup to be exactly the same size in a single one of those slides. Images themselves can't be cropped or have portions hidden. It's surrounding elements that cause images to appear cropped by hiding any overflow.

Scaling divs and content to fit

I am building a module to display html divs(pages) which are designed to in a later stage be printed out as A4s. The area where these divs are displayed is however to small to display the full width of the divs and thus the pages and their content need to be scaled down to fit within the display-area at hand.
The children of the a4-pages are styled with both set widths/heights and percentages so it would be a nice approach to use the CSS3 Tranform scale to scale the pages down just enough so that they can be displayed but this becomes problematic since the scale is done after rendering and thus creates an white area around the pages.
I'm using jquery to rescale the pages when window is resized and will also implement this when page is loaded.
How do i scale several divs within a common wrapper and also readjust the parent so that the scaled div is showed without any padding around it?
Edit: I've put together a simple fiddle displaying the issue http://jsfiddle.net/96jkU/
#toBeScaled should display over the full width of #displayArea but still be scaled to 0.5
If I understand the question correctly, you want the scaled div to sit in the top left corner of the parent div.
In that case, the problem is that the transform origin is set to 50% 50% by default. This is good for rotations (you typically want to rotate something around its center) but not really for scaling; your div gets shrunk down to the center of where it would originally be.
Solution: all you need to do is add
transform-origin:0 0;
(with the proper prefixes) to the style for #toBeScaled.
See updated fiddle.

3 vertical background images appear as one image with content in center image. Center image "cuts off" and does not match footer image

jsfiddle link: http://jsfiddle.net/djDWF/84/
The problem is, the inner container (text-padding) margin/width for the text/images is affecting the center background image. The repeated image that touches the footer does not extend to full height, and cuts off so the center and footer images do not match up (it is kind of hard to tell, but if you add or remove text in my jfiddle example you can see the center image change where it meets the footer.).
This is for a school project, and though I did not need to actually do this type of image background, I got this far so might as well continue. I don't want to use javaScript if possible because that is not part of the course yet.
I tried removing the text wrapper and styling each p tag individually but the same effect occurs.
I also tried mathematical combinations using line-height and margins. If I set the line-height to equal the right and bottom margins, and the left margin to equal the height of the footer then the effect works, but because my footer image is so large this is not a workable solution.
Mathematically I tried to keep the same ratios with the footer height but this did not work either (or else I did this wrong. I tried dividing each by the same amount.)
Is there any way to do this using only CSS and and not having to resort to tables?
So in short the problem is: You can see a line showing up at the footer separation because the repeated centre background isn't fully showing it's last repeat as the container isn't big enough.
The solution: If it doesn't need to be variable and you know how much content you will be putting in you can just set a height: Live example - http://jsfiddle.net/djDWF/85.
div#background-center{
background:url(http://i.imgur.com/gsNFa.png) repeat-y;
float:left;
width:700px;
height: 1604px; /* add this */
}
Obviously, pick whatever height is right to fit your final text.
With your current images there is no way to do this automatically without using JavaScript.

Shrink wrap a "max-sized" image

Setting max-width and max-height to 100% for an image does what's intended and scales the image to fit it's container with aspect-ratio intact. However, I need to achieve the same thing but with an extra container kept tight around the image (to be able to position other stuff relative to the image).
I'm looking for non-JS solutions and mark-up semantics is not an issue since this is for an app. (tables would be ok). Also image dimensions can be considered known.
Another way to describe what I want: Make an image always fit inside the body and display a border around it (not using the trivial solution of putting a border on the image itself)
Here is a fiddle showing the problem. I gave the image an 0.5 opacity to make the yellow container show through. The objective is to have the container always the same size as the image. Ie. the image will always have a yellow tint but no other yellow areas should be visible. Note: I'm not trying to achieve any coloring effects it's just an illustration of the problem.
Try this one, http://jsfiddle.net/xmarcos/K4dHr/
Update: http://jsfiddle.net/xmarcos/K4dHr/4/
Here, this seems to work: http://jsfiddle.net/Wexcode/vzc4m/1/
You don't need to have a max-height around your <div> because it will stretch to the dimensions of its inner elements if you set it as display: inline-block. Forcing the <img> to have display: block will ensure that there isn't any extra space added around element inside container, unless you specify it (using margin).
