i am currently using clean canvas theme on my gallery .

In clean canvas , the album on homepage shows like :album: :album: :album: :album:

there is very less space between the two album. How to increase the space and leave gap between two albums.

or is it possible to have album like below

:album: :album:

:album:

:album: :album:

i am currently using 5 main album . so , i think this look will be very attractive.

if anyone could hint me how to do it, that will be appreciated

thank you

How much effort you want to put into this?
Some things to consider:
Do this layout only on the root album? What about other albums?
What if other album have 7 or some other quantity?
What about albums that only have photos and not albums?
Are you comfortable creating your own theme?
What if you just make the thumbs a bit bigger so you don't have 4 items across?

i think getting album across needs vast modification of codes.

So how about leaving space of a thumb between two album in all album , sub album and pics

i dont think this will need much modification..how can i do this?

I guess this could be done with some css.

#g-album-grid li:nth-child(3) {
margin-right:150px;
margin-left:150px;
}

I'm not a expert in css or nth-child but this should get you started.
