It may not be apparent the viewer has not seen all the blocks of the poster
It may not be apparent that there is some more blocks than fits the screen. E.g. with my default settings I need to scroll horizontally to see all the blocks of the template poster. So I see the following on my screen and there is no indication I should scroll to the right to see the rest of the poster, which can be a bit confusing.
I've been pondering how to solve this. The problem is that each poster defines a "natural width" in terms of a number of columns (here, 4). If the poster narrows too much it will be clear that there's stuff left; but when there are more than that number of columns they are not immediately visible. I wonder if there's a CSS trick that we could use here. Otherwise a small amount of JavaScript should be enough.
