Thumbs Across

[Old Jim]

At one time I was given the CSS to make the thumbs four across on my home page (http://jbusigin.smugmug.com/) (http://jbusigin.smugmug.com/%29). Now I would like to increase that to at least six preferably eight across. I am getting to many galleries making the viewer scroll to much.

Thanks again

Jim

You can experiment with changing the widths in the 4-across hack that you are currently using, or you can add this code to stretch across the full screen - http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=93221. If you add the code, you need to leave the 4-across code in place.

If you don't remember which code did the 4-across, it's in the answer to # 10 in the advanced customization faq at http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=52811.

Thanks Denise,

I do remember the hack and it was you that gave it to me. Thanks for that.

I tired playing with the widths and all that did was align the thumbs straight up and down. Added the code you suggested but that did nothing. So obviously I'm doing something wrong.

My bad - I should have looked at the 4-across code before suggesting that you modify the width. OK Denise, that was dumb!

You do need the other code I referred to in my previous post. I just tried it on your site in firefox web dev, and it doesn't work for me either. Unfortunately I won't have time to look at this until much later today (really tonight). Hopefully someone else will jump in before then.

Allen? jfriend?

No problem and not to worry. I have time to wait. The world certainly won't end until then and if it does.....

Bump

Got it! I didn't look closely enough this morning, and I didn't realize that you have your categories showing on your homepage, not on a separate galleries page. The CSS in the post I referred you to wasn't quite right in that situation. Try this instead (and it does work for me in Firefox web developer):

#homepage,
#content.userKeywords,
#header_wrapper, #footer_wrapper, #cobrand_footer,
#category, #subcategory, #header,
#smugmug, .smugmug #header, .smugmug #footer {
margin-left: 15px;
margin-right: 15px;
min-width: 755px;
width: auto;
_width: expression(document.documentElement.clientWidth < 790? "760px" : "auto");
}
You can adjust the margin-left and margin-right to give yourself more blank space along the sides.

Do you mean in place of the CSS already there for the four across?

No, in addition to that CSS. You need both.

Bless you Denise! That is exactly what I wanted. One last question if I may. Between the banner and the thumbs is the word "Jim's". Can I get rid of that?

It looks like you applied the code to get rid of the word Home but not your name. See # 23 in the customization FAQ at http://www.smugmug.com/help/customize-faq.
