Below, in my signature, I've been trying to get the text to align right, so that the whole thing would take up less space and look better, but nothing I have tried works. Is it the way the site is set up (it won't accept more code), or can I do it but just don't know how. If anyone can tell me, thanks in advance!

Hi CS,

You will need to put it into tables for that like the <table><tr> </tr> </table> kind...

I don't think the <table> codes are used here in the forum due to security issues however.. In other words, the forum pages aren't set to understand them...

Yeah, it's set to only understand the brackets [ ]... Sorry.

Yeah, too bad. I actually tried some of the codes with brackets, too, just in case, but they didn't work either. I didn't try everything, however, but I guess from your response that they wouldn't work in any case.

What are you talking about? Looks to be working to me.

!!!! Lol. Did you go into my account and do that? I'm going to check it out. It would be way more balanced if the photo was on the other side.

OK, I went in and looked, and changed the image to the left, and aligned the text right. I guess the only reason it didn't work before is that I had spaces between the equal signs - the code you put in doesn't. Lol. Otherwise I did that wording.

Thanks, lol. You just scared me for a minute there.

Actually it wasn't setup before to work. I had to add custom BBCode to the forums for the HTML. If any other styling is require just let me know.

Oh, wow, cool (lol)!

Try align=center

Hmmm, doesn't seem to work...

I did see, Kurieuo, that you added "float" and some other wording to the code boxes, but why should that make a difference? Is floating for quotes?

'float' allows you to align a 'section' right or left and they can co-exist on the same line. For example:
'align' uses text-align which allows you to align images/text left, center or right - however you can't have two aligns on the same line. For example:
Left alignedRight aligned (notice on different lines) Oh, and float you can't use center whereas text-align [align] you can.

OK, thanks. It works now, again, after I used the float code for both things: the image floating left, the text floating right.

Hey, Kurieou, so why is the writing underneath my photo again, instead of to the side??? I hadn't changed anything.
