Hello.
Very unfortunately, Fandom's UCX system upgrade means that our image galleries no longer use the same fundamental code command system as previously, which causes some serious problems for our layout in this regard.
The new system can be inspected and learned via the following page:

I asked Ursuul to update the standard settings for regular non-slideshow galleries to mode="packed" yesterday, so they at least look considerably less bad than previously, as all of the gallery images used to be far too small, with a gray area surrounding them.
Here is what all of the regular galleries looked like before their standard settings were updated by Ursuul yesterday:
And here is what the page looks like now: Dragon Ball
The big problem is for our slideshow galleries. For example, the two in Koyomi Araragi's page. They used to be moderately-sized gifs on the right side of the page, but are now tiny gifs smaller than two lines of text, surrounded by a large amount of blank space.
I have asked Ursuul for help to adjust the standard settings so the slideshow images turn larger, but, extremely unfortunately, I think that anything beyond updating the standard settings requires gradually adjusting each gallery on an individual level by using the new code system to make them work properly again.
That said, I am trying to do what I can to convince Fandom to change back to the old programming code system, or at least allow it again as an alternative, so please do not initiate any experimentation yet.
