You might also want to change the width of the hr.... And perhaps put the image BEFORE the image map?

[YourSuperior]

Use this:

CODE

<div style="position:static; margin-left: ###px;margin-top: -###px;border: 0px solid #####; width: ###px; height: ###px;background: none; overflow: auto">

Change the #'s to actual numbers.

If nyah-nek0's link didn't work then use the code I gave you.

I KNOW, but in the actual code i used to make the skin in the first place already had that code in it to begin with.



any other suggestions? if not, i'm probably going to just re-do it.

bleh...

The hr is the horizontal rule.
Y'know... That line at the end of your xanga. -shrug- Just for refrence, this was the code that link led to.

CODE

<style type='text/css'>.blogbody td { width:0px; padding-left:0px; }</style>

[Pulchritude]

well to what I'm thinking its just a postioning problem did you try playing around with the left alighning of the div?

CODE

<div style="position:static; margin-left: ###px;margin-top: -###px;border: 0px solid #####; width: ###px; height: ###px;background: none; overflow: auto">

[talcumpowder]

Did you even look at the example? Their thing is aligned perfect, but the div layer is streching out for some undeknowest reason. Now that I think about it... It might be those things you have in webstats that are streching your div layer out. -shrug- Try moving them under your blog div layer so the appear at the top...

[YourSuperior]

But it should appear on the top even if it is on top of the blog div. Shouldn't it?

[talcumpowder]

I said it's in webstats. Therefore it appears at the bottom.
