    Post Intro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Twenty Sixteen has a small but nifty intro feature. Also known as a “deck” or “kicker,” the intro area is displayed between the headline and body copy. Your intro can provide important information and act as a link between the title and the rest of your post. A carefully crafted deck grabs readers’ attention, giving them an idea of what to expect in the full post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Add your intro in the Excerpt option<\/a> in your Post panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Overhanging Full-Size Image<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Have you ever wanted to show off your large images without sacrificing the post’s readability? On a large screen, full-size images wider than or equal to 840px overhang the column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pull Quotes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Pull quotes are a great way to refocus your readers’ attention \u2014 just add a class of alignleft<\/code> or alignright<\/code> to a blockquote<\/code> element. Here are some examples of how to do that in the Classic Editor<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n<blockquote class="alignleft">A bolder pull blockquote that aligns to the lef<\/blockquote>\n\n<blockquote class="alignright">A bolder pull blockquote that aligns to the right<\/blockquote>\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    On a large monitor, the left-aligned pull quote overhangs the main column to maintain the readability of the text wrapped around it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
