 * Alright, the prize goes to the first person who can figure out why my two text
   widgets are handling my CSS differently. Check out [http://www.sweet-foundations.com](http://www.sweet-foundations.com).
   The one on the right appears to have a larger margin or padding but it seems 
   like the css shouldn’t do that. Any ideas?

 * It’s almost an optical illusion caused by the fact that the image in the left-
   hand widget is 10 pixels larger. In reality, the LH widget is only 2px wider 
   then the RH one.

 * Thanks for the reply! Why are the images rendering differently? The base image
   sizes are exactly the same and I haven’t added any styling to either image. Also,
   if you look at the padding between the text on the sides and bottom the right
   has quite a bit more.

 * They’re not. The CSS-applied margins (padding) are exactly 5px.
