Topic: Flickr Caption Problem

Just made a flash embed flickr gallery. Works grand except the caption title colour is set to #333333 but always shows up as WHITE and this doesnt work too well on a WHITE background. I have the flickr title and flickr description checkboxes ticked. Description works with #333333 but title doesnt. If i change the caption position the svBuilder preview shows it in #333333 not white but when i reload the gallery or my own custom present options it goes back to white. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Re: Flickr Caption Problem

There is currently an issue with the 'flickrTitleFontColor' option not previewing correctly in svBuilder. This will be fixed in the next version. The workaround is to preview your gallery in a separate browser window.
