I can't see it when I test, but it's probably and accessibility feature, helping people who are navigating with the keyboard know what they have selected, usually indicated by a grey outline.

Thank you @Ziggy The grey line doesn't appear when I click next(right) arrow on the website itself. Can you try viewing the next picture by using the arrow keys on your keyboard? Or have you already done that? Grey line only appears when I use my keyboard. Which is problem for as you see we are trying to sell fine arts 🥲

Any way around it? Thanks!

Can anyone figure out why a grey line appears whenever I scroll through my gallery? Grey line only appears when I use my keyboard.

As @Ziggy said, this is an essential accessibility feature. 

When you navigate a Squarespace website using the keyboard, a box appears around the active element. The line is part of this box. This is necessary to meet accessibility standards. See this thread:

Thank you so much @paul2009. I do understand the purpose of it. I'm about to let it go but then I remember I posted a similar question a 2 years ago:

Is it possible to tweak the code?
Much appreciated,
K
