Thanks Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital Robyn ,

I did not chat with Laura about making this change. However the design shows different sizes for the main guys:

The top images are larger and almost square. if I have to make them more square it will stretch the current images and distort it. So I kept the size ratio and just made them larger. The size differences on the design is: 296px and 220px for the smaller ones 

Please advise what you think is best here and I will do that

David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David I hear you - I know Ian flagged a concern about Expert images when we met with Lau a few weeks ago - The width of the top row is wider than the second row, however what we have on production is a width and height being larger - I am not usually the visual tester but think it needs adjustment - lets chat tomorrow morning and get some other opinions in standup -

Thanks Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital Robyn ,

I think that is a good idea. I am happy to do the changes. Let see what feedback we get

It probably still needs a good test. What does this look like with 3 people in the top section? 

I'm also noticing a forward slash on the other tabs, next to the first person's missing image.

hmmm yes, that is weird, I will check what's happening in the back-end and add some more people to confirm that we can move on - thanks Ian Parsons, Head Chef at Matogen Digital Ian

David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David  think you will need to check out the forward slash, nothing obvious in the backend

The "/" is the output of the image alt tag when it returns null. This is not a new change. It was probably never picked up because there was always an image showing. However I updated the code to say expert instead if it returns null

Update here:

All the alt tags for all images were showing "/" even on live. I have updated it that they now work correctly.

I have removed my missing alt tag code. By default you cannot add an image without a alt text

I also added the justified content styling, however it required a lot of tweaking. As we want it to be justified left if there is 1 or 2 images. I have a fix and will push it up to DEV soon

David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David I tried to remove the clone I created but it seems to be stuck in there now, even when using the cache buster,  it also was not called what I called it so I am not sure what's going on here - going to pick up the full test of this when I return in January
