Gerry...I think I know why mine is not 'centered'. I adjusted the size (height) and it probably threw it off. How do we make it so that it's "fluid" and maybe centered based on the size and not a set pixel size?
Could that be the problem?

so I tried to find this in my Navbar
<div class="navbar" style="font-size:10pt"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/navbits_start.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a> <strong>$vboptions[bbtitle]</strong></div> and it only appears in my default style, not my modded ones which I use. LOL! Go figure!

Didn't work Gerry. So, I just adjusted it back up to "80" on the height and it's centered now. But, there has to be a way to valign="top" or "middle" in there. The "p align" works as far as centering (although I don't want it like that, I like the left align and moved it back to left). But, I can't get the valign to go to "top" or even "middle" when you change the height of the iFrame. Strange.
Well, I'll work with it at 80 for now and see if I need to revisit that in the future  Now, gonna go and add "real" info and links in the mod :up:

if you keep the opening and closing tags on the code you can quickly cut it out and re paste elsewhere, if the box comes out in the wrong place Code:
