Can you provide an example on how to use this properly? I've had it not work properly one or two times on me due to typing error I'm sure.

Thanks, I always tried it using html coding. Guess it doesn't work the same.

No, because it is .css coding. [last edit 5/7/2006 6:27 AM by Armed Geoduck - edited 1 times] Tact is the ability to shut your mouth before someone else wants to. :)

Can you give an example of this as well? I've played around with it a few times trying to get it to work, but it always shows up blank when I try to use it. This city is my jungle gym...Look at this big great world that we live in...There's lots of fun to be had on these streets...We can take a ride, just you and me...It's a jungle gym

The likely cause is that you're using IMG tags inside the GALLERY tags, not PIC tags. "I feel like I just got in a battle of wits with some kid in a helmet I found licking a window."

Another good tip: Find a post that looks like what you want to do. Click on "reply with quote" in that person's post, and see the code that they used to get the effect you're after. It's worked for me several times.
