You have the random albums module on this site, is that part of the music collection component?

I don't have it and wondered why.


thanks

    Ok. I found that but I don't show anywhere to adjust the look and feel of it. I end up with a small width and I don't see anywhere to adjust settings on the layout of the mod.

    the main seetings are setted just by adjusting some height and width properties on the file

    /modules/mod_muscol_featured_albums/tmpl/jcarousel/skins/tango/css/skin.css

    basically you have to adjust the width and height of the LI elements and the container DIV that holds the module

    I thought this component and it's modules was going to be pretty easy to work with but it's fast becoming a chore.

    Editing from the admin is fine but opening up Dreamweaver, finding the right code spot, editing and then "hoping" I didn't take out the wrong thing is a bit cumbersome.

    the only CSS you have to modify is this one... dont be so afraid!! I can help you if you want.

    this module MUST be setted up by every one, because the rotation of the images is based on their width. Since I dont know what will be the width on every users page, this must be setted up for each user. If you give me your URL I can take a look and tell you 3 or 4 quick CSS tricks that will make your module look brilliant

    best,
    Germi
