Photo show theme

hi, I have been looking for a concise picture display theme. When I saw the Imprint theme at https://generatepress.com/site-library/, the structure and display method of this theme are very suitable for my needs. What I want to ask is that I can use this theme to directly display pictures instead of selling posters?
Hi there,
if you're NOT planning to sell any products then i would not recommend using Imprint.
You may be better off looking at one of the Gallery plugin available.
Hi David,
Thanks for your reply, I am currently using the gallery plugin. But as far as I know, all gallery plugins do not support clicking on the image, and open a unique page with only this image. Do you have any recommended plugins to use?
What else will be on the unique page ? Are you wanting to add other content ?
I hope that under the independent picture page, you can load other pictures in the gallery below this page, similar to "Related post".
Please allow me to share a link similar to this website: https://inkstinct.co/inspiration/watercolor/1512527126709587822
Thank you.
You could just use the normal Posts and the GP Blog - Which can be set into columns, and set to just display the Featured Image.

I can help with some CSS to make it look like Imprint.
Let me know.
My understanding is: create a normal post for each picture. If so, please provide me some CSS.
Thank you!
Do you have a site setup ?
If you could create some Posts with your Images in, then use the Customizer > Layout > Blog to set the Columns, Image position etc. then i can take a look at the CSS required.
Let me know.

Ok. To create a similar style to Imprint can you go to Customizer > Layout > Blog and:
1. Set the Excerpt to 0.
2. Under Featured Image > Archive set its Location to Above Title.
Let me know.
