Getting text below an image in the footer

Post by TJINAK »

Hello,

I'm wanting to use an image in my footer and have the text go under the image.  As you can see from this example the text is floating over the image.

Thank you for your consideration,

Originally I put the image in the css for the footer.  I thought this would be the proper way, as in the header.  But now I realize that I was making the image a background to the footer and thats when I could not get my text to float below the image.  My goal is to learn the correct css to place the image in the footer area then set the text to float (not sure if that is the correct term) below the image.

But I tried to solve it myself this way ...

Then, and this is what you see now, I put the image in the global content block for the footer.  Now I can get the text below the image but can not center the text to the image...

Thanks for replying.

Well I thought you were talking about the home page.... whew...

I would call the image in the CSS and then use a call in the CSS for the text alignment....

what i do is call the image in a global content block, then have the text in a paragraph underneath connected to a stylesheet

i might recommend using Alot less images for your home page, it takes quite a while to load  :-\

Yes.  My goal is to learn how to take these layouts that my wife designs and recreate them using css.  I've read a few books on it now its time to try and put it all together.  May have bit off more than I can chew, but we will see...

Thanks for the tips and comments.
