   Using the caption template for nextgen and I was able to get it to work but the text seems really spaced out under the template.

   Is there any other shortcodes I need to add to adjust the height?

   here is a screenshot of my problem.

   While I haven't looked at the individual files, there is a /css directory inside the /next-gen-gallery directory where you should be able to change this. Good luck!

   I'd suggest using a browser plugin like Firebug to find which css element you need to change. Then you could use a word processor that has the capability to search entire directories to find which file that particular style element is in. (Among others, TextWrangler, which is freeware, can do this.) If you need help editing css files, I've always found w3schools (http://www.w3schools.com) to be very useful. Cheers.

   tried firebug but I'm not good with CSS code that's why I asked if anyone had an idea which line of code I should edit.

   This issue I believe is the addition of <br /> tags before and after the image. It is also outputting invalid </p> tags.

   <div class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail">
   <a class="thickbox" rel="set_9" title="71X" href="http://fiberpolinc.com/wp-content/gallery/decorangreens/71x_001.jpg">
   <br>
   <img width="130" height="140" src="http://fiberpolinc.com/wp-content/gallery/decorangreens/thumbs/thumbs_71x_001.jpg" alt="71x_001" title="71x_001">
   <br>
   </a>
   <br>
   <span>71X</span>
   </div>

   Used firebug and this is the code between each image.

   I'm guessing the problem would be these `<br>
   </a>
   <br>`

   Theres no need for a br tag before the </a>

   Where would I go to edit this?

    I just eliminated them by editing the files in NextGen's View folder. I had to remove all spacing from the file otherwise WP was inserting extraneous html.

    Could be a couple of issues. It could be your theme, a plugin or just something in NextGen. I haven't had time to investigate the why just that I found that removing the spacing in those files solved the issue.

    The issue has been "discussed" a couple of times:

    It depends on which template you are using. For instance, if you are using compact, you'll need to edit album-compact.php.

    After removing all the spaces withing the gallery-caption.php file there was no change.

    I also tried removing spaces from gallery.php file album compact and album extended.

    removing spaces didn't change anything to the existing gallery.
