hey mike, glanced at the sample gallery page and at your css file and noticed a couple of things:
before i start..i'm somewhat of a newbie.. so take it for what it is worth. the first thing i noticed was your help text, and moron that i am, kept hovering over different images waiting for a big image to pop up. lightning struck, i noticed the look below, and scrolled my beautiful 20 inch monitor down to see the image in the lower left corner... was larger. technically , probably correct, but beware morons like me are all over the web. while different people write css differently i've seen some people spec a font size in the body tag...i'm rambling. in your <p id="help"> you spec your css to be .9em which would bring you in around (roughly 90% of 24 point or 21+pt (assuming default 16pt) and the user hasn't changed it, which you increased in sidebar by 150% to 24. if it's too big, reduce it to .8em, .7em, 90%, *0%..i digressing again...sorry i think.... maybe... ron On Nov 7, 2005, at 5:31 PM, M.
