I did try to hint that that was a poor option with all the Ruby
goodness available to you! :-)
Try:
<table>
<% @photos.each_slice(3) do |photos_row| %>
<tr>
<% photos_row.each do |photo| %>
<td><%= link_to image_tag(photo.image.url(:thumb)), photo %></td>
<% end %>
<% # could do with some check here to pad out row with blank
cells if any cell has less than three - to produce valid HTML
(wouldn't need to worry about this with CSS placement :-) %>
<tr/>
<% end %>
</table>
You could also pass the "<td>" drawing bit off to its own partial and
pass it the photos-row collection; but that might be one step too far
for you right now.
