Hi!

I´m using le last revision of gallery, wp and wpg2 plugin. All works fine but I´ve a problem with font size.

When i use gallery with wpg2 plugin, i can´t read any writting. It´s too small. But when i use my own embeded (with php Iframe) method it´s OK. The both method take the same place on screen.

So my questionis : where can i increase font size for Gallery ? What the right css/template file. I´ve looking fot it for hours without finding the good parameter.

Thank you in advance.

you need the css of the theme you are using in Gallery2. You can use Firefox and then use the developer toolbar (plugin) - edit CSS. Then you can change the font-size and see the live-update what it effects are before you save the file.

[theme.css]
#gallery {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 62.5%; ->change this
color: #333;
background-color: #fff;
}

That's fine for changing the whole gallery. My problem is I cannot find out how to override font settings locally. Specifically in the StaticHTML Module pages.

If I insert a CSS style as follows

}
.htmlPage{
font-family: Papyrus, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 24px;
color: #FF7F50;
}

in the theme.css for my theme (X_treme), and refer to that in the HTML page, I can get the font style and colour to display, but for the life of me I cannot change the font size. I've tried various things with the very useful Firefox Webdeveloper plugin, as well as real code uploads, but something is overriding the size style, which I thought was against the principle of CSS?

Any suggestions how to get round this will be very welcome- my writing is coming out so small it is almost unreadable!
