CSS and images

    I purchased a theme and all I need to do is add some padding around the images. Can’t find the “img” selector in my CSS. Not sure if the company I purchased it from is witholding this info or else I’m just clueless.

    I have searched the support: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Images

    I just want to change the CSS but really can’t find where to do this. I tried adding “.image” as well as “image” to my stylesheet and then adding my own padding attributes but that didn’t work.

    I’m thinking because i purchased a template, they’ve coded it differently than the normal nice themes I usually see on offer.

    I contacted my support (www.template-help.com) and then they directed me to another site and weren’t very helpful.

    I’m hoping someone could take a look and if you’ve had any experience with this please let me know.

    (I’m trying to use WordPress as a CMS so basically I just want the images on the pages to come up so the writing isn’t so close to the edge of the image.)

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    moshu,

    thanks for your quick reply.

    i just added…

    img.left { padding: 4px; margin: 0 7px 2px 0; display: inline; }

    …to my stylesheet but it didn’t modify the padding around the image. I’m hoping I did it in the right place, but I think not.

    My stylesheet is a lot more detailed than the ones I’ve worked with in the past. I don’t want to paste it here because that’s not cool, but I’m sure someone more advanced than myself would spot the problem or be able to tell me where to modify.

    It’s strange because there’s no .img or img or image portion of the stylesheet…

    ha, now that’s funny…if you see a red border snaking its way around my images, it’s because I put the following:

    img.left { padding: 4px; margin: 0 7px 2px 0; display: inline; }
    img {border:solid red 1px}

    now I’m thinking I should add a class to help CSS make the difference between my images. (Like the “Nature” example in the Codex.)

    However that’s for images in a post in a category and I’m really only creating pages with images.

    More reading for this lad…

    Thanks again

    hey moshu,
    thanks for the help earlier. I just added the img.page tag to my css and figured it all out.
    cheers!
