Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide one or more options to adjust, in a virtual three-dimensional space, an image in an initial perspective. At least a first command, provided based on the one or more options, to adjust the image from the initial perspective into an adjusted perspective can be detected. The image can be adjusted, based on at least the first command, into the adjusted perspective in the virtual three-dimensional space to produce an adjusted image. A second command to modify a viewable area of the adjusted image can be detected. At least a portion of the adjusted image can be automatically fitted, when the second command has ceased, within a specified display area while one or more empty regions can be minimized in the specified display area.

A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items for presentation to the user and generates groups of additional content items so each group includes content items having a characteristic associated with the group. A scoring function is applied to each group to determine an expected amount of user interaction with content items in the group. Based on the expected amounts of user interaction, a featured content item is selected from each group. When a group of the additional content items is presented, the featured content item is visually distinguished from other content items in the group.

Presenting groups of content item selected for a social networking system user based on content item characteristics

Particular embodiments provide a plurality of image elements arranged in a display layout. When user input selecting one of the image elements is received, a first animation sequence for an information panel associated with the selected image element may be displayed, wherein the information panel swings down from a bottom edge of the selected image element. As the information swings down, the selected image element may also be enlarged until it reaches a pre-determined size with respect to a display of the computing device. In response to receiving user input dismissing the selected image element, another animation sequence may shrink the selected image element while showing the information panel swinging up and eventually disappearing.

A social networking system provides a user with a feed of content items associated with other users connected to the user via the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system identifies additional content items having various characteristics to the user. If the user selects an additional content item, further content items having one or more characteristics matching the selected additional content item are identified and presented to the user along with the additional content item. For example, a size of the selected additional content item is increased and the further content items are presented in a smaller size proximate to the selected additional content item.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can provide a first option to modify one or more shadow regions of a media content item. A second option to modify one or more highlight regions of the media content item can be provided. The second option can be provided in conjunction with the first option. A selection of at least one of the first option or the second option can be detected. At least one set of color swatches can be provided, based on the selection, for modifying at least one of: 1) the one or more shadow regions or 2) the one or more highlight regions.
