I'm back..! But I'm pretty sure I've made process... I think..? :P
So this is how it currently sits, which is progress in my eyes..!
...for some reason the article title is not attached right at the bottom of the image even though in my eyes it should be, I'm after the title being slightly in from the edge and the black bar background being slightly larger then the title font. This would also make the black background from the title be lower than the published on date.
I've been unable to move the created by text down with the published date/time, every time I try I just get it just below the original "by Andy" text, if anyone has a suggestion on what I need to be aware of for that also maybe..?
I have to admit I'm enjoying my time fiddling with this but end up having a few days between my time to mess with it. /doh
Thanks again for any suggestions/information on what I need to be looking for.
Andy
