Hello.
In my unlisted gallery, I need to add photos (which I've done - easy) but I also need to add text, not below the photos but in the same link. Does anyone know how to do that.
Basically I'm trying to create a URL where one can see my photos and read my resume/statement in one click.
You're help would be appreciated as I desperately need to create this page for a submission.

Thanks,

Sorya

Have you tried entering text in the gallery description?

If you want to format it with html you will need to start the description with an <html> tag and end it with a </html> tag.

Great. It worked.
Do you know how to change the font? I'm very illiterate when it comes to this.
Thanks a million.

You'll need to know a little about html coding. Here's a few links to get you started with fonts:

You can change the font with CSS or with HTML. I'd recommend using CSS.

You'll define a div, and reference it in your HTML. For example, add this to your CSS (after changing the font, size, and weight as desired):

#mySpecialFont {
font-family: Comic Sans MS, Verdana;
font-size: 110%;
font-weight: bold;
}

Then in your gallery description:

<html>
<div id="mySpecialFont">
your text here
</div>
</html>
If you're going to be customizing your site, I highly recommend that you take a look at the excellent document CSS (Customizing SmugMug Simplified) (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=54833) as linked from the >>> CUSTOMIZATION: Start here <<< sticky (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=52812) at the head of the customization forum.
