I’m setting the img height atttribute to 250 and leaving out width. This seems to mostly work just fine. Is this the best way to handle it with just HTML but maybe there’s a cool CSS trick where I apply the image to the cover of for example a CD jewel case?</p><p>I was thinking max-width stuff for img/div + then maybe a bg image on an element and then absolute the div?</p><p><a href="https://social.coop/tags/indieweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>indieweb</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/librefm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>librefm</span></a></p>
