The large format presentation has the disadvantage that there are fewer clicks to the photographers' original pages. Against search engine operators such as Google or Bing was successfully sued. With sharing sites this legal problem does not exist, but the reduced traffic to the photographer accounts is not pleasant.

Danke, * ઇઉ * - ist mir vorher nie aufgefallen.
Don't panic - check out the revised "Display" drop-down.
Wide screen can now be set as a saved viewing preference, to be used when it is available for medium size photo viewing.
Description after title or statistics line first? The choice is yours, even to hide both. As it is an option set by you, it made sense to implement it on the existing pages of 3 photos per row.
How many rows of photos to have per page is also your choice? (it is known that the What's hot / Popular page does not use this and insists on providing 27 photos per page).
If you notice that Keyword search pages need attention in wide screen mode, it is already noted. But constructive feed back on anything else is welcomed.
