    I’m not quite understanding why we have such a big author box with so little text and so much empty space on image pages.

    Any way to adjust the proportions or to retract more text? I actually would even get rid of the picture.

    I agree about that, the text needs to show more words. I was thinking about that the other day, but couldnt be bothered to mention it with all the changes going on, its the least important issue on a never ending list.

    I dont agree about removing the image, I like that.

    Here’s a temporary fix to reduce the size of the author box by giving the content fields and the avatar slightly different dimensions.
    You can check it out at http://picturebreeze.com/stock/photos/image/las-vegas-nightlife/ or any image other page.



    /* Author Bio Box Image Pages */
    .avatar-150 {
    max-width: 75%;
    }
    .symbiostock_author_info {
    width: 70%;
    }
    .symbiostock_author_avatar {
    width: 30%;
    }

    I made mine smaller too, with a combination of style changes (Dragonfly) and a code change to put the heading inside the box instead of across the top.

    For example: http://www.digitalbristles.com/image/sun-rays-on-sand-old-orchard-beach

    In symbiostock_author_box.php:


    <!--
    -->

    <div class="symbiostock_author_info col-md-7 ">



    <span class="panel-title" itemprop="" ><a class="ssref" title="Author " href="">

    <p >

    I posted all the style changes here:

    But the part for the bio box was:

    /* author box on image pages */
    .bio_box {
    padding: 0px;
    margin-bottom: 5px;
    background-color: #F8F8F8!important;
    }
    /* make everything in the bio box transparent so the background of choice will show; minimal padding */
    .symbiostock_author_info.col-md-7.panel-body, .symbiostock_author_avatar.panel-body.col-md-5, .author-bio.contributor.vcard{
    background-color: transparent!important;
    padding: 5px;
    }
    /* Author name a little bigger and bolder */
    .author-name{
    text-shadow: 2px 2px 8px #E0E0E0;
    color: #181818;
    font-size: 2em;
    }
