Grid of images
Permalink
Hi there - I'm looking for the best way to create an editable 4x4 grid of images. When clicked on the images need to just link to other pages in the site.
Currently, there's a placeholder that's just a simple unordered <ul> list with <li> elements and styled with css to produce the grid.
My first approach was to just place c5 areas within each li so that a site user could edit and such. It works, but with how c5 adds areas so you can keep editing, it looks a mess.
So, what would be the best way to do this? I was thinking of using an image gallery plugin but not sure that would work. Anyone know if there's a gallery that would allow a 4x4 grid to be created, images to not expand when clicked, and to just link to other pages?
thanks!

I'd make a custom template for the Page List block that displays an image attribute for each page. Or if you want to edit the list from the block itself, I believe the "DIY Navigation" addon let's you choose images for page links.
Thanks for the input! I actually decided to use simple image gallery. Some of the links were to outside sites, and some internal so this seems a good solution. I just edit the link in the image properties by using a link:http://www... in the tags area. It would be nice to allow picking an internal page or typing some link but this is fairly painless.
