 * Could you please explain this a bit more:
 * > As you can see, the initial display on this page is album covers in two columns.
   > Here is explained how it works:
   > The setting in Table I-D1 ( max cover width ) is set to 600.
   >  This means that
   > when the column of the page is wider than 600 pixels, there will be two columns
   > of album covers, IF they will not become wider than 600 px. If they would be
   > wider than 600 ( the max ) there will be 3 or even more colums, so that the
   > covers are no wider than 600 px. Thlis looks complicated, but works very nice.
   > On the home page there is one column ( the column is only 450 pixels wide, 
   > i.e. less than 600 ), while on this page there are 2.
   > To get this display, it must be generated by ONE shortcode or script sequence.
   > A shortcode that produces only one album cover will always fill the total column
   > width as specified in Table I-A1. So if you enter a list of shortcodes or script
   > sequences to display single covers, they will all display in one column.
 * I can’t seem to get this working …..
 * Kind regards,

 * If your theme is responsive, use a cover type with the addition mcr in Table 
   IV-D6 like **Standard mcr** as opposed to **Standard**. This setting is on a 
   per album basis overrulable by the setting in the album admin -> edit album page.
 * This solution is for backward compatibility reasons, some sites use a mix of 
   pages with multi-column and single column, and this can now be done in both responsive
   and static themes.
