Oh alright.
And okay, I'll make sure to use absolute or relative for now on.
Thanks! heart

Hey there!
I noticed you are really good with coding, and wanted to ask you a question, if that's all right with you~
I'm making a new profile, but I'm having some trouble.
on my "about me" section, I have everything the way i want it, but the scrollbar isn't..
It was hidden, but I was positioning the panel and it isn't hidden anymore..
Could you help me with this?

It works, I ran it through several screen resolutions, including 800x600. Which is when the image started being offset to the '#columns' element because the '#pictures_container' gets pushed beyond view to the left because of the margin (this cannot be fixed).

Sorry, got distracted by the tv.

#pictures_container {
border: 1px solid #666666;
height: 40px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -512px;
position: absolute;
text-align: left;
top: 0;
width: 1024px;
}

How this works is to center the element, you offset the margin with a negative value, half that of the width, that will keep it centered as long as the screen resolution isn't smaller than the width.

This is a more exact code for the OPs profile.

#pictures_container {
box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
border: 1px solid red;
height: 50px;
left: 0;
margin: 25px 16%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 68%;
}

Either box-sizing, offsetting the left to -1, or setting the root element's 'overflow-x' to hidden will keep the scroll bar from appearing.
Ugh, okay. Maybe percentage wasn't the way to go in a sense.. It still centered the '#pictures_container' regardless, but the child element is still absolutely positioned... Hmm.

I'm going to play with different ways of how to hopefully accomplish this. I'll let you know what I come up with.

Mostly everything. =) I'm doing pretty sub-par myself. No complaints. You mean done for good or is it a vacation break of some type and I'm sure you'll keep in touch with your bff even outside of school right? Nothing to be too alarmed about I hope. I've just wiped my computer to start anew. I was getting too cluttered. Right now, waiting on my Firewall to finish its initial scan so I can start re-installing my messengers and what-have-you-nots. For the most part, I am just relaxing right now. Trying not to think about how unearthly cold it is right now. I swear, I feel like the top half of my body is in summer mode but from my feel down, its all wintertime. So tell me about Windows 8, what is your take on it. Last time I tried it, nothing would work. You know, the usual with RCs. I instantly swapped back to Win 7 when Firefox was giving me hell to work. My most important thought is, how is compatibility for you so far? I used a specified list of programs I cannot live without. lol So that is usually my main concern when installing new RCs.
