Good to know

Fair questions.

The Avatar Stack is a Grinner block that shows a row of overlapping, ringed photos of people, followed by a +N pill and a short line. On hover, the face you point at rises to the front. Use it to show that real people already use or love what you offer.

No. Faces aren’t links, and they’re all the same size.

The faces never wrap onto a second line. They shrink together.

Only with their permission, and only real numbers in the label. Made-up proof does more harm than good.

No rise, curve or spread. The face you point at still comes to the front.

Pairs well with

Try it with these.

Numbers that count up or shuffle into place as they scroll into view.

Turn a section, or each block in it, into a card with one switch.

A row of logos gliding past endlessly.

Go make something
beautiful.
