   The captions at ..

   http://www.ourchangingglobe.com/what-would-trigger-a-us-strike-on-irans-nuclear-facilities/

   look pretty lame.

   How can I change the size or make it bold?

   Also the caption is not centered vertically.

   Any ideas would be much appreciated.

   .wp-caption p.wp-caption-text
   {
     font-size: 11px;
     line-height: 17px;
     padding: 0 4px 5px;
     margin: 0;
   }

   close to the end of style.css of your theme.

   Thanks.

   But that's the code that presently exists on the style.css theme.

   +1 to the reply of @SwansonPhotos.

   that is the reason I posted a link to the font style css.

   css/formatting help is not the primary focus of a wordpress forum.

   please try to work with a web tool such as Firebug http://getfirebug.com/ to identify the involved css selctors.

   the caption is not centered vertically

   it seemed centered in my browser; if not, you could try to add text-align:center; to the caption style.

   It's centered horizontally but not vertically.

   The caption is closer to the image than it is to the border.

   Why isn't CSS a function of WP?

   Do you mean that I should have posted under templates?

   This issue occurs with two different themes that I'm using.

   At a guess I'd say that around 20% of posts are regarding CSS.

   style.css is a part of WP

   Thanks for your help,

   Jane

   Please take a look at this ..

   Now it's centered.

   font-size: 11px;
   line-height: 17px;
   padding: 0 4px 5px;
   margin:2px 0px 0px;
   font-weight:bold
   }
