M,
Done verbatim but still a no go. I even rotated top/bottom placement of the CSS codes.
I'm quittin. How do we insert an image into the empty widget space? Thanks for the help.

@GoogieHeaven,

I am sorry to hear that. I just cannot figure out why it does not work. I have tried this code on three stores and it has worked perfectly in each one.
If you are comfortable giving me temporary access to your account, i can do it for you or at least figure out why it is not working. I completely understand if you are not willing to.

The image behind the top picks is more of a temporary solution and if one day Zazzle updates/adds/removes the modules in all stores this might cause a bit of a mess. It is entirely up to, just let me know.

M,
Success at last!
M you really went the extra mile on this one but I think it really paid off.

Just take a look: http://www.zazzle.com/googieheaven

Customized Store Features
1) Added a scrollable image panel w/links set to search my store for each of my patterns on their products.
Thumbs are Zazzle stored.
Results: All Products are now Browse-able by Pattern AND Browse-able by Product.
Raised Description content towards the top.
2) Re-Postioned the "Top Picks" Widget to the side bar.
Maybe the only store on Zazzle with such?
Results: This really frees up the "Description:" pane restoring it to the much more attractive full width size and again raises everything below towards the top.
3) The widget is also in the side bar on each of my following pages as well.

Brilliant work my friend!
Thank you so much!
Jim

I'm seeing an extra top picks widget appear and disappear every few seconds on your home page.

@NuMil3Design,

Thanks for posting. I don't see it appearing and disappearing after remaining on the homepage for nearly 20 minutes. Which browser are you using? I'm using the latest firefox.

At the time of this current post, I'm seeing the same problem I described in my earlier posting...using IE8.

The "Top Picks" widget appears normal when I use Firefox

@NuMil3Design,

I have tried and tested it with my own store and it is working fine. GoogieHeaven has not added the code yet i think.
Thanks for looking out.
