Recently upgraded to 1.5 and it's looking very tight. I customized pretty much everything I wanted except I can seem to change the color for the top navigation box where the login button appears. In bass.css there is:

.modnavboxtop /*navagation bar top of screen where admin buttons show*/
{
background-color: #5E72CC;

which sounds right but when I change the value and save it as base.css, the default color which is a light blue stays. Is this is the wrong setting? Cause I can't find anything similar like it.

I am running standalone, with no skin.

Look here, in your screen.css:

#adminbox {
    background-color: #6274CB; 
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

#adminbox td {
    background-color: #6274CB;
}

I think that's the blue you are looking to change. Personally I find it's easier to add all the changes to the screen.css - it will override anything in base.css.default (or base.css).

Firefox browser combined with this web development tool makes editing your css a snap - you should try them.

I know they've made troubleshooting css much quicker for me.

Awesome, I overlooked that. I noticed that anything I changed in base.css didn't really apply so I'll stick to screen.css. Thanks a bunch, I will check out that tool soon cause I have to go to work soon.

Back from work. Don't worry, I have been using Firefox for a little bit now.

I noticed that Gallery 1.4 acted kind've funny in Firefox. Random thumbails would have borders around them they were way too big. It seems to be gone now though. I hope the future galleries are configured for both IE and FF.

The ugly border problem in firefox is a firefox bug, you can see it other places as well unfortunatly.

Sometimes when you view an image with a "solid" border (maybe others, but all I ever see it happen on is solid borders) it will fly out to the left/right of the image. And instead of doing it for all or none of the images on the page... it just randomly does it to some. I can view a page of thumbs and sometimes see 10 or 15 images with flying boxes or none.

Imagine that = is the top borders and [ ] are the side borders (perfectly lined up) would look like below:

[=] normal

[===] ugly (image is in the middle =)

weird. I've never seen that - if you come across a page with an example, I'd love to see it. Maybe it's just a simple css fix. (then again...maybe it'll be a complex one, but I'd still like to see)!

Its not possible to reproduce it consistantly. Just refresh a page like http://fryfrog.com/gallery/BeaverCreek until it happens. I'll take a screen shot next time I see it, but I'm pretty sure its a documented and acknoleged bug with firefox.

I've seen this in my own gallery. At first I thought it was a problem with changes I'd made (a minor tweak to view_albums.php + css). Then when I viewed my gallery with ie (blech!) it never happened.

After a quick web search, I found references to it being a firefox bug.

I haven't been able to reproduce this tonite, but I'm now running firefox-1.0.3. Maybe it's been fixed in 1.0.2 or 1.0.3.

If I see it again, I'll take a screenshot.

Hi.

I've been searching around the forum for people who are experiencing the problem described in this thread. I'm not talking about the problem mentioned by the author of this thread but the one mentioned by autobulb

I have that problem as well and I can provide a screenshot. Some thumbnails have this weird large border around them. I guess it's the cellborder that's showing. But it doesn't happen all the time and not for all thumbnails. And it seems to happen in FireFox only. Don't know if it's a FireFox or a Gallery 1.4 problem.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Here's the screenshot : http://www.ragnablade.com/Stuff/bug.jpg
Gallery location is http://gallery.ragnablade.com/ (skin is a variation on one of JadeDragon's skins, still working on it though).
Gallery version is 1.4.4
