About “Alternate Gallery View”

So… I’m not a web developer! I’m beholden to the whims of Squarespace templates and mechanics with my website design.

My previous gallery design for Chamomile allowed you to view thumbnails of all pages easily and use left/right to navigate from one comic to the next after clicking one… but only on PC! On mobile, they would all just display in order from top to bottom and you’d have to scroll through the whole lot to read.

I recently redesigned the galleries to allow for traditional left/right navigation on mobile, but it came at the cost of not being able to zoom in or out on images. Unfortunately I have no idea how to get the best of both worlds, so my patch job solution is to just offer the ability to switch back to the old appearance of the comic gallery, which I’m calling Alternate Gallery View.

If you have a very small monitor or want to zoom in to the comic for easier reading or to look at details in the art, or you just prefer scrolling when reading lots of comics in a row anyway, please make use of the Alternate Gallery View option. If none of those are a concern for you, the default gallery view should overall be the better experience.
