WordPress How-To: Full Width Pictures
In the past with using a photo for the full width of a article in that it either won’t center or isn’t the true full width or messes with the sidebars. The purpose of this post is to show the code to use (and width for this speific (Vertigo) style) to resolve those issues.
Here is a sample code that seems to work pretty well on my site:
<div><a href=”http://www.CampJonkoi.com” target=”_blank”><img src=”http://www.bryanshumaker.com/wp-content/uploads/campjonkoi.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”Camp Jonkoi” width=”510″ height=”210″ /></a></div>
The main difference is that it’s an entire <div> which fixes the sidebar issues I was having. Also the width here is 510, but the other problem was there were borders in the CSS that were making my pictures a bit wider than 510, so I added the border=”0″. Nothing fancy, it just took me a few tries to get it right, so I figured I’d share, and write it down for my future self!
Camp Jonkoi
I’ve made a website to help the Children of Jonkoi Orphanage, it’s called Camp Jonkoi and the point of it is to raise money for their basic needs. This year we are trying to raise $15,000 for hot water, toilets and showers. It seems impossible, but it can be done. While trying to raise money through the standard practice of asking everyone I know, I’ve decided to try some crazy ideas too, here’s the list so far:
3G IPhone
I finally did it, I bought a 3G IPhone. I have officially moved into the 21st century. And since I have purchased the new 3G Iphone with the new, faster internet and hyper technology, I will no longer be needing this older, slower, out of date internet. So I am hereby saying goodbye. It has been great, I really enjoyed our time together and I hope that one day that you too can save up and buy a piece of the future. Until we meet again on the other side, please keep these memories in your heart: Read more
