# Read more causing trouble

 * Hi,
 * I’ve recently ‘created’ my first WP-site: [http://bit.ly/hp72cI](http://bit.ly/hp72cI)
 * I’m not finished yet,but progress has been made. The biggest problem I have as
   of now is that I’m struggling with the read-more. I planned to maintain a photoblog
   with one thumbnail and some text in the first part and then after the read-more
   I want to place a small gallery with more images of that shoot.
    But the read-
   more is always vertical aligning itself with the text and not with the thumbnail
   and thus causing some disturbances in the layout. Is there a way to force the
   readmore-line to show-up after the thumbnail?
 * I hope you understand what I mean.
 * Thanks for any help!

 * there is no ‘read-more’ on the linked page.
 * can you post a link to a page with a ‘read-more’ to illustrate your problem?

 * I’m sorry, just click on the home-button on the top-left of the page, then you
   see one post with read more.
    Problem is in Firefox a lot bigger then in Chrome,
   I don’t have access to Internet Explorer now.

 * add something like the following at the end of style.css of your theme (or wherever
   you think it is best located):
 *     ```
       a.more-link {
       display: block;
       clear: both;
       margin-left:3px;
       padding-top: 10px;
       }
       ```
   
 * (adjust the values to suit your ideas)
 * this should bring the ‘read-more’ and the grey line to below the image.

 * thanks, that solves indeed the problem on the mainpage, but when viewing the 
   post in more detail things still look messed up. But that is then probably another
   problem?

 * you need to clear your floats before calling the image container div
    add this:
   <div style=”clear:both;”></div> before this: <div id=”ngg-imagewhateverthisthing
   is”>
