 * On my blog

 * I somehow have ended up with uneven gray borders on the images. The border does
   not display on the right side. Not sure how this happened or how to fix it. I
   like have the border there, just not uneven. It was not a problem before and 
   then I made a code error when I was posting and now I can’t fix it.
 * Any thoughts?
 * Thanks much.

 * You might try looking in your theme’s functions.php file for the following line
   of (or similar) code:
 *     ```
       if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) $content_width = 588;
       ```
   
 * If it is not there try adding it to the end of the file just before the last `?
   >`.
 * Setting the content width to 2px less than the `<div>` width may bring the 2px
   wide border back into view.

 * I tried it, but it didn’t work. Thanks for the suggestion though.

 * Perhaps I miss calculated … either try a value of 586 in the above line; or, 
   try changing line 162 in your style.css to this:
 *     ```
       .attachment-medium {
         display: inline;
         max-width: 586px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Note the `max-width: 586px;`

 * You’re welcome! I’m glad the CSS worked for you.
