Center td.posters container

Support

I could use a little css/flex assistance. I have been working on making the avatar of the original poster larger than the rest of the avatars and have figured everything out except how to center td.posters

I have used the method described here How to increase avatars size on Latest without making them blurred and modified it work with the original rather than latest. Here is my css:

td > a:first-child > img:first-child {
    height: 50px;
    width: 50px;
    margin-right: 3px;
}
  
td.posters {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    margin-right: 25px;

  img.avatar {
    height: 25px;
    width: 25px;
  }
}

.topic-list .posters a:first-child .avatar.latest:not(.single) {
    top: 1px;
    bottom: 1px;
}

.topic-list td.posters {
        height: 54px;
}

Below I marked what I want to be centered between the dashed arrows. Here’s a link to my site.

I tried increasing the height of td.containers, but that only works on categories where I’m using the topic previews, in other categories where that is turned off it makes the spacing too large. I could target those categories to reduce the height but would prefer not to if there is an easier way. Thanks!

You may wish to hire someone experienced with CSS to assist you?

With a display: flex on the <td>, I’m not sure this is possible without adding a bit of HTML :thinking:

If you remove the display: flex from .td.posters, it will vertically center the avatars, regardless of the row height.

However, the cell containing the avatars .topic-list .posters.theme-avatar-medium, which has a fixed width, is a bit too short (176px) and the last avatar will go to a new line. If you increase it to 187px, it seems to fit.

Then, the avatars won’t be exactly at the same height because the first one is larger, which can be solved by:

.topic-list .posters>a:first-child {
    margin-top: -4px;
}
