FREE CSS Gallery Template - SE Optimized with sample stylesheet
OK, I'm sure most of you have seen CSS Zen Garden.
It illustrates better than anything, how flexible CSS is. It shows how amazingly different webpages can be while they have the exact same HTML.
SO, I thought it would be cool to have a gallery template we could do the same thing with, and here it is.
HTML
CSS
And here's the gallery
I kept this real simple, and the code as clean as possible so even CSS noobs can dive right in.
I already have a dozen ideas for how this layout can be altered, so grab the code and make your own.
and if you want custom versions of this template for your program, hit me up. Imagine how cheap you can make a ton of templates faster than ever before.
Thanks.

Good catch. It was almost 5AM when i got this idea and threw it together for this thread. I didn't bother to validate it because I knew there was nothing in there to give me an error.. unless i did something dumb like add an extra /div.
