No cropping. No industrial formatting. Your formats are respected as you created them. Image first.
A square is a square. A 3:2 is a 3:2. A 16:9 is a 16:9. At Granit, what you decided stays intact. It's an obsession, not a feature.
Your media are displayed exactly in their original format — small, medium, large, horizontal, vertical, panoramic. No algorithm crops, resizes, or stacks to "make your work fit" into a pre-made grid. If you shot a panoramic, it's displayed as a panoramic. If you painted a vertical canvas, it's displayed as a vertical canvas.
This seems obvious. It isn't. On most portfolio platforms, your images pass through a formatting machine that standardizes everything into a visual stream where nothing stands out anymore. The photographer who spent 20 minutes adjusting a frame sees their image squeezed into a square because "it looks better in the grid."
Not on Granit. The image comes first. Always.
