Hello fellow spellslingers.<br/><br/>I have recently posted a big "thank you" in the shoutout thread (link (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=179025.msg14650439#msg14650439)).<br/><br/>I used nested tables and transparent pixels to achieve the effect.  Here is the code for your intellectual amusement:<br/><br/><div class="codeheader">Code: <a class="codeoperation" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="return smfSelectText(this);">[Select]</a></div><pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"><code class="bbc_code">[table][tr]<br/>[td][center][font=verdana][size=36pt][color=maroon][b]♥ ♥ ♥  Thank you!  ♥ ♥ ♥[/b][/color][/size][/font][/center][/td][/tr]<br/>[tr][table][tr]<br/>[td][center][img padding=4]https://elliquiy.com/forums/avs/avatar_55626_1548171189.jpg[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[td][center][size=16pt](in alphabetical order)[/size]<br/><br/>[img padding=4]https://elliquiy.com/forums/avs/avatar_59148_1519035314.gif[/img][img width=4]https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/4d/AlTeregoSeparator.png[/img][img padding=4]https://elliquiy.com/forums/avs/avatar_63523_1523659312.gif[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[td][center][img padding=4]https://elliquiy.com/forums/avs/avatar_59530_1547424055.jpg[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[/tr][/table]<br/>[table][tr]<br/>[td][center][url=https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=55626]Catherine[/url]<br/>[img height=1 width=158]https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/4d/AlTeregoSeparator.png[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[td][center][url=https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=59148]Jefflint[/url]<br/>[img height=1 width=158]https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/4d/AlTeregoSeparator.png[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[td][center][url=https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=63523]Kyranna[/url]<br/>[img height=1 width=158]https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/4d/AlTeregoSeparator.png[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[td][center][url=https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=59530]Mimétisme[/url]<br/>[img height=1 width=158]https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/4/4d/AlTeregoSeparator.png[/img][/center][/td]<br/>[/tr][/table][/tr]<br/>[tr][td][center][color=purple][size=11pt][i]For your acceptance, for your friendship, for being there when you are needed.<br/>For your sympathetic ears, for your open arms, and most of all – for being you![/i][/size][/color][center][/td]<br/>[/tr][/table]</code></pre><br/>Now, that required a little bit of mental arithmetic:<br/><br/>There are two inner tables:<br/>- One with the avatars, consisting of three columns with 1, 2, and 1 images respectively<br/>- And one with the names/links, consisting of 4 columns centered below the pictures<br/><br/>The edge image cells are 158 pixels wide each -- 150 for the width of the avatar and 4 padding on each side.<br/>The center image cell is 162 pixels wide -- 150 x 2 for the avatars, 4 x 4 for the padding, and another 4 for the (implied) distance between the cells.<br/><br/>In other words, in order to keep everything aligned, I had to add a 4 pixels wide transparent image between the center images in the top inner table, and use other transparent fillers to explicitly control cell width in the bottom inner table.<br/><br/>Why bother?  Because I wanted the '(in alphabetical order)' text appear inside the table to use the space created by the center images being shorter then the outer ones.<br/><br/>An overkill?  Probably, but a cool one nonetheless (an overcool?)<br/><br/>Take care,<br/>-- Al<br/>
