    I'm curious to see themes similar to this or how people have customized it. I'm planning on doing that myself.

    I tagged this message regarind "autofocus" but my post may not have been clear. So my question, has any worked with the Autofocus theme and customized it? Any examples? Thanks.

    @ gmccarth_garry and jacobsen...

    I'd love to know how you widened your homepage and reduced the height of photos in the collage.

    Was it just adjusting the width in the style.css? when i did that my page displayed horribly on my iphone and 15" monitors...

    thanks!

    it's all in your style.css.

    It's in style.css, under /* =home */

    Change the "height" amount in this line, which is set at 300px by default:

    .home .featured.post{background:transparent url('img/loading.gif') center center no-repeat;display:inline;float:left;height:300px;margin:0;overflow:hidden;position:relative;width:200px;}

    I changed mine to 219px, and decreased by borders to 3 px.

    jacobsen1 and gmccarth_garry - how did you change your gallery settings? I noticed that when you click on a gallery image it comes up with a nice viewer.

    @jacobsen1 Your site & photography are fantastic! You have one feature on your site that I am struggling with.
    It seems that the default on NextGen is that once you make an 'album,' the galleries go back to the default player. I prefer Simple Viewer. I can set up the simple viewer by itself on a page, but not within an album. make sense? I assume you modified the stlye somewhere, but I don't know enough to figure that out. Can you help? thank you!

    I'm only using nextgen in it's standard configuration with lightbox... So I can't really help with simpleviewer I'm afraid.

    jacobsen1 Do you mind my asking "what code did you use to change the menu from vertical to . horizontal?

    I'm thinking you changed this somehow:

    #access {display:table;height:160px;vertical-align:middle;width:200px;float:right;}
    #access #menu {vertical-align:middle;display:table-cell;font-size:0.8em;}
    #access #menu ul {vertical-align:middle;display:block}
    #access #menu ul li ul {margin-left:10px;}
    #access #menu a{font-weight:800;}

    Thanks

    ^ there's a thread in here somewhere covering that specifically.

    I found the thread.

    #access {display:table;height:80px;horizontal-align:right;width:200px;float:right;}
    #access #menu {horizontal-align:right;display:table-cell;font-size:0.7em;}
    #access #menu ul {horizontal-align:right;display:block}
    #access #menu ul li ul {margin-left:10px;}
    #access #menu a{font-weight:800;}
    #menu {float:right}
    #menu li {display:inline;margin:0 15px 0 0}

    It appears to work ACCEPT that it is trying to line them up on the right side of my logo rather than under. See http://www.reflections-etc.com/blog

    Any ideas? Thanks Pamela

    float left instead of right. You might also have to clear before you do that and then maybe bump the padding to move it down.

    one problem. I put the facebook image as a list item and it worked fine when the list was vertical. But now it doesn't want to be part of my horizontal list. see http://www.reflections-etc.com/blog

    my code is:

    </div>';
    }

    Any more ideas? Thanks

    Wait. For some reason my code didn't copy correctly above. I think it's because the list code are allowed here. I'll try again....
    /*

    </div>';
    }*/

    use the 'code' button here above the editor window, press once before pasting code, and again after.
