All of a sudden the book covers and other pics I have on my profile page are stacked vertically instead of horizontally. (One on top of the other instead of side-by-side.)

Edited to add: I am using FireFox 3.6, FWIW.

Same thing has happened to me!

(I'm using Internet Explorer 7).

I believe it started a while ago in posts. (First reported here).

>4 clamairy: Mine too. It started in posts, but now it has carried over onto the profile. But it appears to have the same symptoms--forced line break between images, if the images are a link, the link carries over across the whole horizontal space, etc.

Ahh. Well, make Tim change it back! ;o)

You know, if there was a feature built into profiles that displayed all the covers in our Currently Reading collection, there would be no need to do it manually.

Happened to me also. Sorry, I posted over on another thread.

I see now, though, that the book covers posted on my profile page are no longer in one long vertical line as they were this morning, but they are side by side per usual, just no long 100 px, they look at least twice that size.

>6 clamairy: That's true! Although I resist the cookie-cutter profile page as long as I can:-)

>3 christiguc: thanks for that, christiguc. I saw that change a while back and just adjusted.

>8 avaland: Lois, it appears "style" has been disallowed from the profile. To fix your height, change your image code to <img src="URL" height=100> There is no way to code in a margin, but at least you will be able to control the image height.

>9 christiguc: Christina, that is a slightly different code to what I tried after the style went away, but I'll try this and see what happens. Thanks.

9> Actually, you should be able to use the HSPACE attribute to control spacing.
