            I will in a little bit
            Grandkids just showed up and want me to get out of my shop and see them for a few minutes!
            I also need to replace the batteries in my TV remote. They just got dead!

            I’ll be back in a little bit.

            Thanks everyone!

              ok, the solution is in the custom css
              the issue is the TV screen is a wide-screen
              I just didn’t play around with it enough to see any differences
              everything on screen now. removed the border, increased the border size.

                  yeah, realized the main issue was trying to get it to have a border and it just wouldn’t work with the wide screen monitor of the TV.
