Sorry for the 2nd post in as many days (other one in Customizing). I've tried everything I could find in the posts, but my ineptitude has me stumped...

Upgraded to 1.5 2 days ago. When viewing the thumbs in my albums using IE, the caption text looks centered, but it's not centered under the image. It's like this for both picture and movie thumbs, however, it is centered under the image for subalbums. The clickable-dimensions are centered under the image.

Or perhaps I have it reversed and the caption text is centered, but the image and clickable dimensions are not.

When viewing using Firefox, the caption text is centered under the images and subalbums, but the clickable-dimensions are not centered.

Or I may have this one reversed as well, and the clickable-dimensions are centered, but the image and caption text are not.

A page with thumbs and a subalbum can be seen at: http://flynnstone.is-a-geek.net/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=Montana05

Appreciate any help, thoughts, or insight anyone may provide...

environment:
Gallery URL: flynnstone.is-a-geek.net/gallery
Gallery version: 1.5
Apache version: N/A (using IIS 5 on Windows 2000 Server)
PHP version: 4.3.8
Graphics Toolkit: ImageMagick
Operating system: Windows 2000 Server
Web browser/version (if applicable): IE 5.5 and IE 6, Firefox 1.0

Thanks to all the moderators who donate their time; I've found all answers in the Forums in the past without having to post except for these issues with upgrading to 1.5. If this is an issue I should not expect a reply to (because Gallery 1.5 (upgraded from 1.44) is functioning, but just doesn't look right), I'll consider going back to 1.44 just for the aethetics. Thanks again!

Hello,

You could try fixing this yourself as its just a simply css change.

Regards,

Jens

Personal Note: You can consider using what ever you want. But in my humble opinion i see no reason why telling us this, other then setting us under pressure.

intent was not to invoke pressure...sorry that was the feeling relayed.

Time to teach myself CSS! I'll search the forums for recommended sites/tools.

The size of the clickable-dimensions was causing my issue. In my skin's screen.css (../gallery/skins/<skinname>/css/screen.css) I added:

.dim /* controls the dimension text under the image */
{
font-size: 8px;
}

This makes the dimensions (mine are [500x375] [1600x1200]) fit under the thumbnail image.

Possibly this should be moved to the Customization forum...
