just reinstalled G2 and basically have the layout how I want it, besides some minor tweaks. wondering the best way to shrink the gallery width to say 70%, while keeping my header unchanged (as in can I put a div somewhere or set left/right margins). if you look at the pic or use the link, you will see the album name shows twice, I'd like to remove the upper one in black, but I can't seem to find it in the .tpls those are my main bothers right now, i think I can get through the rest on my own, thanks http://www.floridalc.com/gall2/main.php edit to add: forgot to mention this is essentially the matrix theme

Looks like you'd done just what you're asking for

Great Job!
1. The album name in green can be changed/removed in each album in "Edit Albums -> General -> Title". The upper one in black is the breadcrumb which is switched on or off in "SiteAdmin -> Themes".
2. To do what you want with the gallery, look in your theme.tpl for the following:
a. <div {g->mainDivAttributes}> - Edit this to be <div {g->mainDivAttributes}><div class="YOURCHOICEOFNAME">
b. <div class="footer"> - Edit this to be </div><div class="footer">
c. Add YOURCHOICEOFNAME as a class in your css file and style as you wish
There is also the option of using a tool for embeding G2 developed by one of the members here although it looks like you have done the main job.

sorry I don't see the option to turn off that breadcrumb
not sure what you mean here, did I forget to close a div somewhere?, theres no highlighting in the editor i'm using right now so there may be some of that
yea I did get the table width part covered, thanks so far
edit:
I think I'm accomplishing this another way, admittedly your way seems better

I don't use matrix theme so it might not be an option with that theme.
The Smarty '{g->block type="core.BreadCrumb"}' is what renders the breadcrumb. Look in theme.tpl.
No. I suggested that you open a new div "<div class="YOURCHOICEOFNAME">" earlier which needs to be closed. I suppose the order in which you listed your queries/points explains the confusion.

ah that was her, thanks a bunch.
I think I can handle the rest now though I may come back later if i can't fix the slight formatting difference in my gallery header compared to the header in the rest of the site.

The embed tool linked earlier will ensure all common parts are consistent.

I had tried the embed tool before I started, but I did something wrong and it didn't work, though I didn't really try hard because I feel like I learn more this way. I may give it another go.
