  1. My site is at veryserious.org. I have a problem with the way my widgets are displayed. Simply put, there's too much room in between them.

    Here's a pic that shows what I'm talking about.

    I'm using cutline 3 column split. How can I change the spacing on my widgets?

  2. I want to make it so that the vertical padding at the bottom of the widgets is decreased. Does anyone know how to do this? Should I ask on the wordpress support forum?

  3. Looks like you figured out the spacing problem.

    How did you get it so the categories show at the top of all the headers of the articles? I like that!

  4. In index.php you can change all that stuff around so around like 12 or so right before where it calls on the entry towards the top of the file I rearranged it so it would say:

    <h3><?php the_category(' · ') ?><br></h3>
    <h2>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
    <h4>posted <?php the_time('F jS') ?> by <?php the_author() ?></h4>

  5. Could you post how you reduced spacing between widgets. I'd like to do that on my site. I am a programmer but not familiar with php; so if you could make it simple for me, that would be great.

  6. If you know how to go into styles.css and edit it, go in there and look where it says:

    ul.sidebar_list li.widget, ul.sidebar_list li.linkcat

    mine reads like this:

    ul.sidebar_list li.widget, ul.sidebar_list li.linkcat { width: 210px; margin: 0 0 .25em 0; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.2em; float: left; }

    The margin is telling it to put 0 margin on top, 0 on the right, .25em on the bottom and 0 on the left. Change the .25em until it's what you want. Change the number that is there by default to .25em. That should do it, unless I forgot totally how to do it.
