	<p>Problem: we have a grid of fixed size thumbnails. For a nicer look, we want this grid to be middle aligned with respect to the paragraphs above and below, and, at the same time, we want the last grid row to be left-aligned with respect to the grid.</p>

	<p>✔️ This demo shows how we can use <code>object-fit: cover</code> function to prevent the images from being distorted when they have different aspect ratios and setting both the <code>width</code> and the <code>height</code> explicitly distorts them. ✔️</p>
