How to remove gaps?

New Coder
Hello guys,

i`m very new to html and css and i`m trying to create a website, but i cannot figure out how to remove the gaps between 1st and second row picture. I plan to have different type of picture sizes like in the example, but I would like them to "HUG" eachother.

Is there anyone who could help me with this?

I`m adding screenshot of what I mean, my html and css files. If anyone has any better solutions to that what i`m doing right now, please let me know, I will appreciate every help!

Thank you,
Raitis

Your grid setup is wrong.

Thank you for your reply,

Now I have this

Untitled.jpg

Which is also not what I was imagining. Let me try to share what I have in my mind.

So basically I want to have 7 pictures in a row and lets say 4 columns, but the pictures will have different sizes, I want them to be like a mixed (hugging), like in the picture below.

Do you know a way to do it?

Try this:

HTML: 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Mixed Size Image Gallery</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div class="gallery">
        <img src="image1.jpg" alt="Image 1" class="large">
        <img src="image2.jpg" alt="Image 2" class="medium">
        <img src="image3.jpg" alt="Image 3" class="small">
        <img src="image4.jpg" alt="Image 4" class="large">
        <img src="image5.jpg" alt="Image 5" class="medium">
        <img src="image6.jpg" alt="Image 6" class="small">
        <img src="image7.jpg" alt="Image 7" class="large">
    </div>
</body>
</html>

CSS: 
body {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

.gallery {
    display: grid;
    grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
    grid-gap: 10px;
    padding: 10px;
}

.gallery img {
    width: 100%;
    height: auto;
    object-fit: cover;
    border-radius: 5px;
}

.gallery img.large {
    grid-column: span 2;
    grid-row: span 2;
}

.gallery img.medium {
    grid-column: span 2;
    grid-row: span 1;
}

.gallery img.small {
    grid-column: span 1;
    grid-row: span 1;
}

As for the images their different sizes:

HTML: 
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/400" alt="Image 1" class="large">
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/200" alt="Image 2" class="medium">
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/100" alt="Image 3" class="small">

Let me know if that worked.

Generate web designs from text or drawings
You can try incorporating one of the following:

grid-auto-flow: dense;
grid-auto-flow: row dense;
grid-auto-flow: column dense;

HOWEVER, tab order will be wrong visually, if that matters in your case.
