  1. Hi,

    I have been using simple viewer with my wordpress blog for a while now and love it. My only problem with it is that I seem to have to have the center images quite small, (usually 500 in the settings) as if I try to set it any larger, the background is so large it starts to cover my side bar in my blog.

    I have two options - can I make the background smaller? or
    Can I make the background opaque?

    Does anyone have any possible solutions?

    I have found the html in the wp-simpleviewer/wp-simpleviewer.php theres a section for the colour. Is it possible I could alter it to make it 'opaque' and would anyone know how to go about it?

    /* end hide */
    	body {
    		height: 100%;
    		margin: 0;
    		padding: 0;
    		background-color: #181818;
    		color:#ffffff;

    I look forward to hearing anyones ideas and views!

    Thank you!

  2. I did not get what you want to do 100%...Maybe changing the values stagepadding and Framewidth already helps you?

  3. Hi Sorry for the delay (just got a rescue dog and the days have flown!)

    The stagepadding and framewidth don't seem to help, I can set them to '0' but the background is still very large. If you look at this link below, you will see the central picture is quite small. Id like it to be a little larger, but when I set the width in the settings to anything larger than 500 the background goes over the sidebar and covers up the text.

    Is there anyway of making the central picture larger without the background getting bigger?

  4. Hi,

    Im sorry but im still struggling to make the central image larger without the background being larger too, does anyone have any ideas of what I can do?

    My cat image here for instance has to be 500 wide otherwise the white background goes over the side bar to the right. Can anyone help?
