# Gallery marquee mounts > Twelve pictures hung in drawn frames, running two rows deep past the section with the pointer driving them. Every frame is core block markup and nothing else: a group border in your own ink around a mount painted in your base colour, alternating a heavy solid frame with a lighter double rule, and a title and a date under each one inside the mount. The block's own plate is switched off, so what you see framing each picture is the pattern rather than the block. Includes replaceable example images. Needs the companion plugin, which comes with your access; without it, or without motion, the masthead is followed by the twelve framed pictures as a plain stack. States no colour and no font of its own. Canonical: https://patternpaste.com/pattern/gallery-marquee-mounts.html Section: Gallery Access: Included in Pattern Paste access. Needs: Requires a block theme on WordPress 6.7 to 7.0. Classic themes and page builders are outside our supported setup. Adaptive patterns use the block theme’s colour, spacing and typography presets; styled variations declare their own colours or type. Also needs: Install the Pattern Paste plugin first, then paste. This section embeds one of its blocks: the plugin comes with your access, downloads from your account, and takes a minute. Paste without it and the section arrives as a plain stack of your headings, text and images, with none of the motion. Blocks: group, heading, image, paragraph, patternpaste/marquee Keywords: gallery, marquee, frames, mounts, pictures, hang, exhibition, pointer Promise: This variation embeds one of our blocks: install the companion plugin, then paste. --- ## The signature moment: the frames are the markup Every other pattern that needs a frame ships a picture of one. These are drawn: a group border in your own ink around a mount painted in your base colour, with the title and the date sitting inside the mount under the picture. The block's own plate is switched off, so what you see framing each picture is the pattern, not the block. Change the border width and you have changed the frame. Two treatments alternate along the run: a heavy 12px solid frame and a lighter 5px double rule with a deeper mount. Nothing states a colour to do it, so a gallery on a dark theme is the same hang in reverse. ## Why this is not gallery-marquee-frames That one is a plated band: the block draws a card behind each picture and the pictures are landscape, cropped to one shape so the row reads as a run. This one turns the plate off and lets the markup dress each picture instead, in portrait, with a caption and a date inside the mount. The first is a moving strip of images; this is a wall being carried past you. If you want the same look standing still, it is a grid; the point of putting it on a marquee is that a hang is longer than a screen. ## What it inherits from your theme Everything, including the frames. The border is `currentColor`, so it is whatever your theme sets as text on this section; the mount is your `base` and the section is your `base` too, so the mount reads as the frame's inside rather than a second colour. The titles are your face, the dates take `role-label` and fall back to `contrast`. Nothing here states a colour or a family, which is why the frames survive a theme swap: they are a shape and a weight, not a palette. ## What it decides for itself Each slot is 260 by 340, stated, so the row is level and every picture is cropped to the same portrait shape whatever was uploaded. The gap is 36px, wider than the other marquees, because framed pictures need air between them or the frames read as one long rule. Two rows, running opposite ways, at 0.6 of the block's own speed: slower than the plated band, because a hung picture is meant to be looked at. The band is exactly its two rows plus the gap. There is no separate band height to set: the row height is the one number. ## What needs the plugin The running, the pointer control and the press-to-hold. The frames need nothing: they are core block borders and they are there with the plugin inactive, with motion switched off, and for a reader who asks for reduced motion. In that state the masthead is followed by the twelve framed pictures as a plain stack, still framed, still captioned. ## What you change first 1. **The pictures.** Select the block and use "Fill items from media library": pick twelve at once and they are dealt into the frames in order. A title you have already written is never overwritten. 2. **The frame.** Select any item group and change its border in the block settings: width, style, radius. `double` and `solid` are two of eight styles core offers, and the pattern uses them to alternate; set them all the same for a uniform hang. 3. **The mount.** The item's padding is the mount's depth. 18px and 22px here; more makes a museum, less makes a snapshot. 4. **The titles and dates.** An `h3` and a paragraph inside each mount. If an `h3` in a gallery upsets your page's heading order, change the level. 5. **Item width and height** if your pictures are landscape rather than portrait. The band follows the row height, so that is one number. ## Included images The copied markup includes WordPress Photo Directory example photographs. The public image URLs keep the examples visible after pasting. Select an image or cover and choose **Replace** to use your own Media Library files.
