  • Sorry for being vague.

    Basically:

    <div style="width:100%; text-align:center; padding-top:10px; font-size:10px;"><div class="tborder" style="width:560px; margin:auto; padding:1px; position:relative; text-align:left;"><img style="position:absolute; top:-20px; left:-17px; z-index:100;" src="http://www.dragonflycave.com/sprites/gen4/dp/012f.png">
    <div class="thead" style="padding:3px 3px 3px 55px; margin-bottom:1px;">A Heading</div>
    <div class="alt1" style="padding:3px;"><span style="width:48px; height:20px; float:left;"></span>Text in the box</div>
    </div>
    </div>

    The bolded bits are the values you might want to tinker with. First it's the width of the box, which you can decide for yourself; then there's how far up and left you want to shift the image from the top left corner of the box; then there's the image URL; then there's the increased left padding on the heading in order to shift the text so that it doesn't go under the image, which you should experiment with until it looks right; and finally there's the empty float that makes the main text not go under the image and how tall and wide that should be (again, experiment until it looks right).
    Sorry about my post in your CC thread, I was trying to be funny, but realised a bit later that I shouldn't have joked about that. I wasn't serious about it, and it was meant to be light hearted.
    Mine isn't a table; it's done with divs. Basically it gives the container div position:relative and the sprite position:absolute with negative top and left values, which places it up there. Technically this would cause the text to go under the sprite, but to prevent that I made an empty span with float:left; that has enough height and width to push the text around it out of the sprite's way.
    What about food and lodging?

    Do I seem that mature? That's a good sign~ .m.
    Good thing, to.

    You know how Grandma's stereotypically tell you their secret ingredient for cookies is love? Yeah, I added too much love to my comic to let it die. D:<
    Woah :o

    Ah, alright. It would be amusing if it turned out we knew each other irl, though.
    This is going to seem really awkward since you don't know me, but I saw your post in Coughing Cupboard and you said something about seeing church people tomorrow night. Would you happen to live in Canada, in Ontario? Probably answer over PM if you don't want people getting your personal information.
