gotta ask again… what is RTFM??? :confused_face:

@justjim1220

Read the F#$king Manual. It was a joke, referring to the annotations of the css file. The image of the moon likely has a large black border that you can’t see. The header might be obscured by it

[Mykle1]

I don’t use headers

ROTFLMFAO!!!

Actually, I DID RTFM… But I don’t see where it is explained how to make the text closer to the moon…
At least, where you have the settings in your Lunartic.css, it doesn’t really explain why we need those settings… :face_with_stuck-out_tongue: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

Let me put it this way. If you stared at the moon all night would you see any changes? Very unlikely. So, although the image updates, you won’t see much difference in the incremental changes. Also, would you notice the difference between a moon that is 56% illuminated and a moon that is 57% illuminated. I think you get my point.

This is where the image comes from

YES!!! By Golly, I do see the difference!!! I stare at the moon Every Night!!!

No, I understand what you’re saying, but with the changes over a 28 day period, like from the beginning of the full moon phase to the beginning of the next full moon phase, you would think you could see a difference at least on a nightly basis.

Yeah, I see where it comes from in the code…
( I study these codes everyone puts out for their modules, helps me relearn…)

And you will, unless the image being provided by the US Navy isn’t being updated at the source

@mykle1

Any idea how often it gets updated?
just curious!
