With the old site, we could display two photos within a story, and no captions. Though most stories have no more than one photo, I thought I could do better.
We now can display an arbitrary number of photos in the sidebar of an article. Not only can we display the photo credit, but we can now display the captions as well.
Also, as what I think is a nice touch to an article’s design, I wrote a script that checks the dimensions of the top photo for a story. If the photo is sufficiently wide, it will push down the story and be displayed full width under the headline and subhead (We previously couldn’t display subheads either.). Here’s an example: https://badgerherald.com/sports/2009/02/04/shattuckkeepsup_el.php
