Hello Forum

I recently had to start my site all over from scratch.. Im having a couple of issues..

When myself or users add a album - under recently added module -

If you look HERE , it makes my albums off balance meaning they will be 3 albums on each line, but the next it will be only two , then the next will be three.. What do i have to adjust to stop this from happening? Its making the site not look professional at all..


On my site before i had to restart it , i had were i entered a a "background image" like a "square frame" i made in photoshop so the album cover would site inside of it.. But i cant seem to find the "html" code, to insert the background image into the recently added mod ccs.. Can anyone help with the code... pls

Thanks http://www.joomlamusicsolutions.com/images/fbfiles/images/mixtapeframeperm.png

    usually you can solve this just by going to modules/mod_muscol_recently_added/tmpl/recently_added_albums.css
    and adding

    height:160px;

    on line 49

    about the image: you can add it into the same CSS file...

    well, something like:

    ul.album li{
    background:url(something) no-repeat;
    }

    I guess you'll have to adjust the margins and paddings and stuff.

    time to get creative with CSS!

    no, you didnt. I went into your site and the css is not modified.
    if I do the trick myself on my browser, it looks perfect.

    thats the CSS property you shold be changing on line 49:

    ul.albums li {
    float:left;
    margin:50px;
    width:100px;
    }

    it stills this way, you havent modified it. it should be

    ul.albums li {
    float:left;
    margin:50px;
    width:100px;
    height:160px;
    }

    please, I already point it you on the right direction (not only pointed you, but told you exactly what to do!!! ;) )

    I think the image is centered, it is just that it has no space to show completely. you may want to increase the LI element's width.
