I managed to embed a music player in my home page (http://www.cynthiamerzerphotography.com/) (http://www.cynthiamerzerphotography.com/), but I'm not pleased with where it is placed. How can I create some space in between the slideshow frame and the music player?

Also, I would like to create a small text box to go just underneath the music player so that I can attribute where the music is coming from. How do i do that?

Thanks,

Not sure if this is correct, and someone with more knowledge might better help you. I believe adding a <br> known as a break return above the code for the embeded player should give you some space.
Simply adding another after the player and then something like the following should work.
<center> YOUR TEXT HERE</center>
Hope this is of some use.

The break didn't work, but the text did. Any idea how to make it a smaller size font?

Thanks,

I am not positive, but it looks like you might be missing the opening and closing
<html> </html> for the embedded player and text.

This may be why the break returns did not work.

Try something like below:
<html><br><center>your player<br> text code</center></html>

I don't follow??

The code would look something like below.

<html>
<center>
<br>
Your Player Code Here
<br>
Your Text Here
</center>
</html> --Shawn

Gettin' there! How do I make the text size smaller. I think right now it is 12px; I would like it to be 10 or 11px.

To change the font size I use the following code.

HTML:
<h5>Your Text</h5>
Place the following in CSS:

/*===== h5 Text =====*/
h5 {
color: #ffffff;
font-weight: normal;
font-family: arial,verdana;
font-size: 10px;
}

You can then change the size and color and font to whatever you wish by changing the above CSS to fit your needs.

Got it; even changed the color to 666666.
How can I add space between this text and the line that starts "All images ..."

Simply add more break returns after the text and before the closing html statement.

Thank you. Your help has been very much appreciated. Any suggestions as to how I might want to improve/change the layout of my home page would be equally appreciated.

Best regards,
Cynthia
