Hi! I loved this explanation, Ive probably watched about 20 tutorials on this and found you via tiktok. The one thing i struggle with in auto layout is photos in responsive designs that are within a parent. I find that they don't resize properly (either stretching or being cropped in weird ways) - how can I fix this?
