Look at this page:

http://www.smugmug.com/community/BostonPhotography

See how the title middle left overlaps the following gallery. What's up with that?
If not now, when?

    It looks like the box is set to a fixed height of 130 px and the text for that one image (ALL CAPS) consumes too much space, pushing it into the image below.

    .miniBox {
    display: inline;
    float: left;
    width: 335px;
    height: 130px;
    margin: 5px 20px 0px 0px;
    }

    One of the draw backs of switching to a tableless HTML layout, is that certain elements on the page have a specified height and are unable to grow larger, even if their contents are too long. :(

    You can fix this by adding this to the CSS section of the site though, if anything goes outside of the box it will not be drawn:
    .miniBox {
overflow: hidden;
}

    This is a community page. Where do I control it's style? I've never been able to figure this out.

    You should have the option to have the community use your cobranding.

    It isn't my community, but I'm pretty clear it's just using the smugmug defaults. So, why not make hidden overflow in minibox be the default?

    I'm the owner of the community.
    I can co-brand this community to have it look like my own site. But since it is shared by so many people, i'd rather not do that.

    I could add a whole bunch of new CSS selectors to my co-branding that start with .community_208 to make it not look my own smugmug site... Maybe i will do that later and fix this problem you just described. I'm still very busy with my own site's co-branding :D

    BTW: This problem does not occur on IE5.5 (i have not tested it on IE6.0)

    I can't grasp the notion of time.

    When I hear the earth will melt into the sun,
    in two billion years,
    all I can think is:
        "Will that be on a Monday?"
