ok, i think I found a way to do it now. I have to add a pixel size in my div when I post the image so it matches the size of the image. not a big deal to add more code to the post, I guess. but alas, now firefox won’t show the drop shadows as would IE. off to find a solution for that. thanks for all your help

Kitta was the first one who gave me the idea to do this a long time ago actually. She has the instructions posted for the same place I got my coding from. Still won’t let me post different images with relative shadows matching the size of each image.

Right, that’s what I’m doing now. I actually got it to work in one post but in my stylesheet is seems as if it’s only particualr to whatever image i’m assigning it to…if that makes sense. For example: If I assign the shadow to a 240×320 sized image i have to tell the padding and margins to follow that image size in my css file. Now when I post another image and say the size is 120×96 it will keep the same settings for the original image I posted and the shadow will be out of whack for the new image but still correct for the old one. Here is the code I’m using in my css if anyone can help:

div.img-ilus {
background: url(images/shadow.gif) no-repeat bottom right;
margin: 0px 76px;
padding: 1;
position: relative;
}

div.img-ilus img {
background-color: #fff;
border: 1px solid #a9a9a9;
margin: -5px 5px 5px -5px;
padding: 4px;
position: relative;
vertical-align: bottom;
}

the “margin: 0px 76px;” is what’s throwing it off. Does anyone know how to make this universal to be used with whatever size image I post? thanks again

thanks a lot. I went into my index.php and just deleted the lines that you had mentioed above (actually the opposite of what you said to do lol) and it worked. Now when you click on my links it goes to my created pages with none of the comment stuff showing up…thanks

no update on this? i switched to another theme again that I really like but this theme is acting the same way. even if I disable comments and pings at the bottom of the page it says “this post was created by blah blah blah…” I don’t want that to show up at all when I create a page. Anybody??

that’s what I did but they kept coming out on the page like it was a post. I ended up switching to the Nexus theme and that took care of it. I really do want to figure this out so I’m not limited to certain themes. thanks for the help

Yeah, I’m using bionic jive. What do you mean page-by-page basis? I will check my page.php files and see wat I can find there. thanks
