I have been tinkering with how the categories are displayed on one of the sites I am working on. I have discovered alot of cool things I can do with categories. However, I have not (of course) figured out how to do what I want. I have ten categories and so far the only way I think I can do what I want is to manually enter all of the links in the html for each of the categories. So, I though I would ask all of you to see if there is an easier way first.

This is what I am having issues with. I have 10 categories. and they are displayed 3 to a row at the moment. So they look like this.

* * *
* * *
* * *
*

Now what I would like to do is to have that bottom category centered so it would look like this.

* * *
* * *
* * *
> *

Please note the > would actually be an empty space.
Other than making the table of all of the categories manually in the categroy display page do any of you know a way to achieve this?

Can you create a category using an image the color of the background and no name? Then move it to the position you want to be blank in your catalog.

This might be the best initial suggestion. Create 2 categories with no thumbnails or text and put them in the right order. Otherwise it would probably be quite a convoluted javascript solution. It would take me quite a bit of time just to see if it would work.

Wouldn't that also lead to an empty space in the list if you're displaying a left side nav list as well?
1
2
3
(empty space)
4
