 * Hello,
 * I need to have multiple components on a page/post (clickable images on a grid)
   
   each should contain a main image and an overlay image and the onclick action 
   would trigger the loading of a site url
 * i dont know if i can call these widgets as WP only considers widgets on the sidebars
 * what is the best/recomended way to achieve that ?
 * thx

 * If you want these as part of your page I’d suggest looking at [shortcodes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API).
