 * Hi,
 * Forgive me if this is a beginner question.
    Here is the website in question: 
   [http://mirador.cathywu.com/2016/11/09/solo-female-trekking-with-a-40l-pack-las-torres-del-paine-w-trek/](http://mirador.cathywu.com/2016/11/09/solo-female-trekking-with-a-40l-pack-las-torres-del-paine-w-trek/)
   I am using the lifestyle child theme and want to close the huge gap between my
   inserted images and text. I believe it is in the image margins here that I need
   to change:
 *     ```
       img.centered,
       .aligncenter {
       	display: block;
       	margin: 0 auto 24px;
       }
       ```
   
 * However, when I change it to 0px, nothing happens to my site. I changed other
   things and no changes show up. I even erased the entire CSS stylesheet to see
   what would happen… and my site remained intact.
 * How can I make the changes in the CSS stylesheet show up in my site? I am editing
   it from appearance -> editor in WordPress with the lifestyle theme selected.
 * Thank you for any help!

 * Can you be more specific about which images you’re having an issue with as the
   images on the post you linked seem to appear fine to me.
 * Thanks.

 * I would like the text immediately after the photo to butt up against the bottom
   of the image, currently there is a gap of one line from the margins of the photo.
   I will make a screenshot later today to show what I mean.

 * Add this to your [Child Theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) style.
   css file, or using a [Custom CSS](http://www.mhthemes.com/blog/wordpress-plugins-to-implement-code/#simple-custom-css)
   plugin.
 *     ```
       .entry-content img {
           margin: 0 auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * This should work fine for you.

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for the advice.
 * I added the code (copied and pasted it into the css file) but nothing has changed?
 * I don’t understand why playing with the CSS isn’t making any differences for 
   me :/
