    I was having a similar problem with Catch Box Pro where ever a slider and menu were together. Menu slid behind the slider. Your “code bit” fixed that problem and problems I was experiencing menus on small tablet screens.

    Thank You

    Your words cleared up my concern.

    Thank you, I knew I was just not “seeing” the answer.   I was certain I had to be missing the obvious especially since there were not any “new” plugins and all the Google responses were from a year ago.

    I can’t endorse any plugin not enough experience.  After spending some time looking around I ended up with Newsletter Manager.  Sign up is on the bottom of my start page – just looks like a simple sign up form.  The program has subscription check and unsubscribe features.  Many people downloaded it.

    I’m doing a  win a Bluetooth keyboard promotion.

    Not the voice of authority but go to Google AdSense, jump through the hoops, and open your account.  Then go to My ads.  You’ll see where you set ad size and format.   (Google has lots of  useful info about optimal ad sizes and specifications.)  After you “design” your ad on Goggle you take the code provided and go to your Web site.  Place the widget where you want it and paste the code into the widget. The widget is the container the code shapes it.

    Impressive speed in fixing my problem.

    Did you do anything but upgrade.  Did that twice and it did not work for me.  Uploaded a few other themes and they worked just fine.

    Anyway thanks

    I believe the picture cannot be made to fit the ideal dimensions with Microsofts Office’s photo editor.  The pictures are screen shots off a small tablet screen. The aspect ratio is wrong.  The picture will be distorted if I got the ideal slider dimensions dimensions by resizing or cropping with the tools I have.

    However, I’m going to a WordPress class tomorrow.  I’ll see if the instructor and have her show me in photo shop how to make it come out better.

    I should have access to Photo shop there.  Perhaps I can then add to the pictures size by putting it on a transparent background  so it can be cut to fit properly.

     

    Thank You

    Oops I hit a snag.  Using Firefox, IE, Chrome on my windows lap top my slider pictures work fine.  I also used our Mac desktop with Firefox and no changes in height.  However, on a Nexus 7 tablet, using Chrome and Dolphin the pages still jumped making the text underneath annoying to read.  An Apple iPod Touch exhibited  the same problem using Safari. Cleared the cache a couple times and shook them vigorously to show them who’s the boss but the problem persists.

    Can someone check the site with their tablet or phone and see if they have a better experience.  I’m really hoping the problem is my machines.   …or user.

    As you suggested I added, #slider-wrap img { margin: 0 auto; }, The slider works the way I wanted it too.

    Thanks

    But id you are doing image resize then you have to resize all the image same height and same width. Then it will not make the text go up and down.

     

    I’m sorry all my images are not the same size to start with because of the way my screen shots came out – they don’t have the same aspect ration.  They cannot be resized as you suggest without loosing part of the picture

    Thank for your input I’ll figure out something that is pleasing to eye.

    Thanks for the guidance.  Will implement your suggestion to see how it looks.

    Did read the instructions and if I resize the image to 644 it causes the text below the picture to jump up and down because of the varying heights.  Spent more time resizing and general futzing around than I wanted too.  I’d rather width variation.

    Did I miss something?

    An additional question, maybe it is obvious but this is my first word press site. Here is what I am trying to do.  In the first column on my page I want to have a picture 320 wide  by 700 long  I’d like to put several individual images say 100×100 px down the long side. The small images will be linked to other pages like icons. I figured out how to do inline-block.  But the way I did it only gets two images side by side.

    1.[<div style=”display: inline-block; margin-right: 5px;”>]

    2.[ … wordpress generated code for first image … ]

    3.<<div style=”display: inline-block; margin-right: 5px”>/div>

    4.<div style=”display: inline-block”>

    5.[ … wordpress generated code for second image … ]

    6.</div>

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Richard
