Instagram and Gallery Block Marquee

Code Toolkit
Written By Squarestylist Support

What You'll Create

Transform your Squarespace Instagram block or grid gallery block into a smooth, continuously scrolling horizontal marquee. Images glide across the screen in an endless loop over 20 seconds, creating an eye-catching display for logos, portfolio samples, or social feeds.

The Problem It Solves

Squarespace's Instagram and gallery blocks display as static grids. There's no native option to create that smooth scrolling marquee effect popular on modern websites. Third-party plugins exist but add bloat and cost. This technique achieves the effect with pure CSS.

Perfect For

Client logo bars, Instagram feed showcases, portfolio preview strips, partner/sponsor displays, product image tickers

What Makes This Different

Converts the grid to a horizontal strip that scrolls continuously. The smooth 20-second animation moves images from right to left in an endless loop. Optional JavaScript pre-loads images to prevent lazy-loading delays and ensure seamless scrolling.
