Thumbnails vertical not horizontal

[Riatsala]

Hello all,

Firstly - to those who created pixelpost, thank you so much. I've been looking for an easy to manage photoblogging doodah for ages - this is the one!

I do have one problem though - on my site (http://www.stairz.co.uk/photoblog), the thumbnails beneath the photographs appear vertically not horizontally, which is quite a problem as it stretches the page out meaning one has to scroll down.

Any suggestions as to where i'm going wrong and how to make them horizontal would be much appreciated!

Cheers,

Al.

All fixed! :D

Can you please tell me what the problem was, because this is exactly the behaviour I would like: a vertical strip of thumbnails. And despite Ramin's advice to search the forum, I couldn't find explicit instructions.

So, how do I get a vertical row of thumbnails, please?

Jeremy, this is very easy to do as you can see at my page http://www.photografitti.de

yes, and if you searched the forum you would have found the posting, but I know if you don't use the right search words, you miss the results..

so, here is the solution: it is really very easy:

place the thumbnails in a div:
<!-- Thumbnails -->
<div id="film_cat">
<IMAGE_THUMBNAIL_ROW>
</div>

and define the CSS for that <div> according to the widht of the thumbnails:

#film_cat {text-align:center;position:absolute;right:15px;top:10px ;width:107px;background:transparent;padding:0;}


and you will get it!

good luck!

Dear Connie

Thank you very much. I will try that when I get home.

And as you say, searching requires the use of the right terms ...

old wisdom from computer-savy person :wink:

tell me about your results and show us the URL of your photoblog!

I will, I promise, but I am still a bit shy about it. :oops:

(It is not too difficult to find, but I am not yet ready to point people there myself. Maybe after another session over the weekend.)

take your time!

OK. Done (http://www.pixelpost.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3915#3915).

Please be gentle with me. :)

I do not know what I did wrong, but it is not working on my page (http://www.foto.ttlive.de/).

I would like to have the thumbnails vertical on the right or left side next to the picture and if possible.

How can I display the thumbnail like here (http://photo.sfrog.de) or "at least" on your homepage here (http://www.photografitti.de/)

Thank's in advange for your help.

get the CSS of my page, you know the link already

study the HTML of my side, you will identify the divs etc. where the thumbnails sit...

the main idea is to define a width for the thumbnails which is the width of one thumbnail

but I have no time to tell it exactly, it is done, it is working, it is valid, so just find out!

good luck
