# Top Widget Width

 * I’m looking to make the top widget in the header wider, as it stacks images instead
   of displaying them horizontally [looking to have a simple scrolling marquee of
   images there adventually]
 * The CSS does have a width, but it just changes its position of the header in 
   the header and not actually makes the widgets content width larger (if that makes
   sense)
 * I assume I’m making a rookie mistake. Any help would be great.

 * You may need to provide a link to the webpage and image of the desired layout.
   Otherwise it’s difficult for forum volunteers to envisage and debug the issue.

 * No worries!
 * This is what happens when I try to add a set of images side by side: [http://i48.tinypic.com/21bveck.png](http://i48.tinypic.com/21bveck.png)
 * They stack vertically instead of fitting in the length of the widget. Text goes
   the length of the widget, but the images do not; it only shows 1 image per line.

 * Perhaps you need to use the CSS [float property](http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_float.asp)?
 * Remember to add CSS within Custom CSS functionality, such as that provided by
   the [Jetpack](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jetpack/) plugin, or within
   a Child Theme stylesheet.

 * It turned out to be a rookie mistake after all and I am now quite embarrassed
   haha
 * For anyone else looking to resolve this in the future: remove display:block from#
   sidebar-header img in the css and save yourself from looking like a doofus.
