On my homepage there is a slideshow in the middle of a box. Is there a way to reduce the size of the box (to be closer in size to the slideshow) or increase the size of the slideshow (to be closer in size to the box)? I am trying to minimize the gap between the edge of the slideshow and the box.
Thank you

Is there a way to place a border around the slideshow and also remove the white box the slideshow is currently in?

Thanks

This will remove the white box:

.homepage .boxBottom {
border: none !important;
}

You can add a border around the slideshow by using the slideshow parameters borderThickness, borderColor, and borderCornerStyle. The values for those parameters are shown on the flash slideshow wiki page at http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow.

Do you happen to know what code I would enter? I checked the wiki but it did not state the code. Thank you

I copied the names of the parameters that I referenced from the wiki page that I referenced above.

Did you scroll down and look at the available parameters? They are not in the sample at the top. They are in the list of parameters / descriptions.

I went to the wiki as you suggested and copied this code:

borderThickness: '<4>'

borderColor: '<#FFFFFF>'

There is still no border around my slideshow. What did I do wrong?

See if this in CSS is what you want.

#slideshowBox .boxBottom {border: 4px solid white !important;}

or another variation

#slideshowBox .boxBottom {border: 10px ridge white !important;}

You could add a slight background color aloso.

#slideshowBox .boxBottom {border: 8px ridge white !important;
background: #222 !important;
}

How about adding a mat?

#slideshowBox .boxBottom {border: 20px solid #ddd !important;
background: #111 !important;
}

#slideshowBox {border: 10px ridge #ccc !important;}

I like the second border you suggested, but there is still an area between the edge of the photo and the border. Is there a way to get the border to come right up to the edge of the photo?

Thanks again for all of your help so far.

That area is part of the show and haven't seen anyway to reduce it. Maybe
someone else has an idea.

The show script has border parameters but they appear and disappear with
the slide, not sure of the new slideshow box though.
