I cant see that this is going to work as the captions appear too long to fit.
You can certainly style them.

Hi Dave
I see that
maybe if I can make smaller font it would make a difference.
How would I change the size?
Thx

You can add a style to your FW page to overwrite the existing caption style.
Try this - Copy the following and paste it into Page>HTML Markup in the Before section.
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.fwShowcase_caption {
text-align: left !important;
font-size: 10px !important;
}
-->
</style>
The size of your standard caption is 12px. Adjust the size to suit. I have suggested 10px.

Dave
all is good now. Instead I took caption out of the equation all together and put the names separate so they would stay where I wanted. The other solution moved both names, but thanks for advice. I will be able to use another time.
I have one more strange occurrence with scripty accordian and Firefox. The main menu is another font, bolder than the drop down. I used Web Fonts action and it works great in all other browsers except Firefox. Is there a fix for this?
take a look when you have a moment

I think your problem with the captions was really because your thumbnails are so small.
Haven’t looked at the other issue yet but what I do see is poor quality text in Safari - very bitty

Hi D
hmm
I checked where I could put the quotes for the font. Both in Inspector and the Style where we used Extended to get rid of bullets The new font family is a drop down menu with no quotes capability…
where could I put the quotes?
font-family:”Quicksand Book”;

Note that my page wont work in FF because the fonts are on a different domain (yours) to mine. FF apparently doesn’t like cross domain stuff.
