How do I display more text in photo gallery?
-
I have a photo gallery where one of our authors would like to have several lines of text associated with it. See http://oncirculation.com/mantle-rocks/
While the thumbnails display all the text the description it is not all visible in the gallery. Is there an easy way to increase the size of the text box associated with the images? (Preferably with out going in to rewrite code. I wouldn’t have a clue where to begin with that).

Hi there!
I’m not sure if I fully understand your question. Are you saying you can’t read all of the text associated with the images the way you have it now, or that you just want to increase the space for that text?
I ask because I can see all of the text on my monitor, but it’s possible that in a different browser or with a different screen resolution things might look different, so if you could clarify your main concern that would be helpful.
If you want to change the layout of the gallery beyond what your theme allows by default, you would need the Custom Design upgrade and you’ll need to modify the CSS.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, sorry I wasn’t clear. I can’t actually read all the text for all of the images. The smaller images in particular don’t have enough space for sufficient text. I was wondering if there was a quick way to make that text box larger (relative to the image) or make the image larger (it is already inserted at it’s full size) so that the text box is proportionally larger.
I’m not sure why you can see it and I can’t, at the risk of sounding rude, was that the case for all the images? I’ve had a few people comment that they can’t read all the text either.
I’m pretty sure that I purchased the upgrade so recoding would be possible, and a nightmare :)

Could you please send us a screenshot of the page where are referring to. This way we can see how it looks like on your computer, and find the cause of the problem.

Is there an email that I can send the screen shot to? I can’t upload it in the reply box.
Cheers

The best way would be to just upload them via Media -> Add New in your blog’s Dashboard.
Can you do that for us?

Oh, that problem!
That is definitely on the list of things to fix in the next upgrade to the Carousel photo display.
Sorry about that!

Good to know it’s not just me! I’ll get the author to shorten the text for the time being.
