How to customize description location

Post by yasharozov »

Hi,
First of all - this is a great gallery. thanks for all your work Jan
Im hopeing someone can help or point me in the right direction.
I have long descriptions for my images. They are short poems which accompany the images. So, it makes sense for me to use the lightbox to overlay the decription on the image. I am wondering how i may be able to layout the text to the side of the image on not on it?, alternatley maybe i could live with the current layout but with the description appearing on on rollover of the detailed image. can someone maybe point me to the file which controls the layout of the text?

see:
www.inkroom.com/cms

click on 'phoca' on the left menu. and then click on the 'butcher' image to see the current description...

Ok, So i found the phocagallery.css file which controls most of that stuff i guess. I noticed that if i change the posititiong to 'fixed' in the description-msg class i might be getting sort of what i want. But, can anyone tell me how to make the white background of the lightbox text completley transparent (without the text becoming transparent) so that the image shows well? Thanks, Yasha.

Anyone? I would like to make the lightbox background color completeley transparent (so the image below shows its true colors..) with the description text showing fine. Changing the opacity setting in the css changes both of them (background and text) and I would like to style background and text individually...

Hi, do you use modal box, if yes, then just change the parameters in Parameters Component.
