vertical-align problem with the bottom posticons in 2.0 Core theme

(1/1)

SMF 2.0.2 - "Core" theme

Ok, it's quite simple.  I want to "vertical-align=middle" the "New Posts" & "No New Posts" Text beside their corresponding images in the *core* theme.  However, every attempt I'd done in the CSS or in the PHP file doesn't seem to want to work.  I can get "vertical-align=bottom" for the text to work, but that's about it.  Whenever I add the "vertical-align=middle" code, it barely moves the text down from the top location (might move only a pixel, maybe 2).

Surely it shouldn't be this hard to get that text to properly "vertical-align=middle" beside those thumbnail images.

If anybody has any suggestions to get that text to "vertical-align=middle" properly beside the images, I would greatly appreciate it as it's been driving me nuts.

This may not be the best way but you can give it a try ...

In your index.css file at line #1496 you have the .posticons section.

Change the width to something like 33% and then add  a margin-left: 300px; statement.

This will move the image icons and the Mark All Messages Read tab to the near center.  Might not be exactly what you want, but it is a start. Also not sure if that will affect anything else as I only took a look at the Home Page. You might find icons moved about on other pages.

edit: I suppose you could set width to 33%, margin-left:400px and margin-top:10px.
edit: well, hunted around and did not see where any other icons where affected.

This centers the entire section on the front page, which isn't what I want to do unfortunately.  I just want to vertical-align the text beside those icons.  Nothing more.

woops ... sorry, my misunderstanding.  :)
