First off, thanks so much for this awesome plugin. We lean on it big-time and love the functionality it provides.

Recently (probably after the wp 3.0 upgrade, but not sure), we started to experience a random bullet and extra between the widget's title line and the first thumbnail. It seems like it can be related to the extra space issue that some have experienced. Our domain is DMAclub.com.

The bullet is only visible in the native version of aol (9.5); the extra space is visible in Firefox and IE.
Changing the ordering of the widget makes a big difference. When it is directly next to Intense Debate widget, Intense Debate is rendered invisible.

Lastly, I can't seem to get fancybox to work properly; does the CLOSE BUTTON need to be coded in? Should I try an earlier version of fancybox?

I have checked the forums (old and new) and have attempted to use Fiurebug, but to no avail. Thanks again!

Hi,

I think we should be able to fix the gap with some CSS adjustments. As for the extra bullet in aol, I downloaded version 9.5, tested your site, and saw a gap but no thumbnail. Let's fix the white gap and hopefully the bullet will go as well.

Let's try adding some CSS. I would add it to your theme's CSS at wp-content/themes/viva-7/style.css. Please add

.tubepress_sidebar .tubepress_thumbs {
    padding: 0 5px 0 ! important;
    margin-top: -1em;
}
You could mess with the "margin-top" property to slide the widget up or down to your liking. Please give that a try and we'll continue to debug.

As for FancyBox not working, you shouldn't need to do anything special to use it. Feel free to enable it somewhere on your site and I'll be happy to take a look. Thanks!

Thanks-a-million for the warp-speed support, Eric! As it turns out, moving my feedzilla widget higher within the sidebar made the random dot go away. This is an interesting riddle, but all is well now. I do believe that my sidebar has some goofy issues, which I will further investigate.
Thanks again for a brilliant plugin and phenomenal support!
