 * Hi this has been driving me nuts for the last 3 hours.
 * 1. I want to change the border width on the thumbnails. When i use inspect in
   Firefox the only element i can use to change it is padding. When i change it 
   from 4px to 1px its perfect? Very confused.
 * 2. Also When i look at the images on my iPhone they are in the center but just
   a little to the left and right not perfectly centered?
 * I have tried all the usual stuff deactivating plugins. CSS, changes but cant 
   get any of it to work.
 * [http://www.buckspartyvenues.com.au](http://www.buckspartyvenues.com.au) is the
   site. Its on the home page.
 * Any help gratefully received.
 * Thanks
 * Danny

   profile/5starcruises – Centering the thumbnails should be able to be done with
   some custom CSS, try the following in Gallery > Other Options > Styles:
 *     ```
       /** Center Basic Thumbnails */
       .ngg-galleryoverview {
           text-align: center !important;
       }
       .ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box {
           float: none !important;
           display: inline-block !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * As to the white “border” that is indeed created by the default padding around
   the images. Adding something along the lines to the custom Styles should help
   to sort this out as well:
 * `.ngg-gallery-thumbnail img { padding: 1px !important; }`
 * Thanks!

 * Hi
 * Firstly thanks so much for doing all of that you rock.
 * The border part worked perfectly 👍
 * Still have the same issue when using my iphone the images are one on top of each
   other but are just out of line. Its only a small thing but driving nuts.
 * Thanks again

 * [@5starcruises](https://wordpress.org/support/users/5starcruises/) – We do not
   have any specific stylings set for varying viewport sizes, this is generally 
   handled for the most part by your current theme but also may require a bit of
   tweaking to the custom CSS you implement based on `media-queries` for the specific
   smaller viewport (aka mobile) screens.
