You want to have cropped thumbnails... then you should take a look at the modpack.

If however you want to have a different border size (your subject), then you can adjust that in the css

Thanks for your help. As i said though, i am new to this so i have no idea what to actually do and i don't want to mess it up. I don't suppose anyone knows of someone that would do it for me?...Willing to pay of course, depending on price :-)

Thanks

Applying this trivial little task for you should be easy - however, we don't believe in just doing somebody else's work. You won't learn anything from that. Instead, we're ready to teach you what you need to do. For a start, post a link to your gallery.

First of all: you shouldn't have named your custom theme "All Rise For Lee" - avoid spaces in folder and file names like the plague as well as capitalization. None of your site visitors will care how your theme is actually named, so I suggest changing it to "all_rise_for_lee" or similar. Anyway: to accomplish changed thumbnail borders, edit themes/your_theme/style.css, find the class .image and edit as you see fit. In your case, edit http://www.allriseforlee.net/gallery/themes/All%20Rise%20For%20Lee/style.css, find

Code: [Select]

.image {
        border-style: solid;
        border-width:1px;
        border-color: #000000;
        margin: 2px;
}and replace with

Code: [Select]

.image {
        border-style: solid;
        border-width:8px;
        border-color: #FFFFFF;
        margin: 2px;
}

Okay, i have done that, thanks but how do i get them to be all the same size with the random crop of the image. I'm sorry i am pretty useless as i am new to this kind of thing. My friend actually installed coppermine for me but she has gone away for 3 weeks so can't ask her...

I'm kinda scared that if i attempt to do what i don't understand, then i will mess it all up.
