RE: [Firefox] Skins Database Bug
A bit of firebugging revealed that the problem is caused by the vertical center hack. Simply put: it doesn't work that way.

Here's a much better vertical center hack, using table styles for IE8/Firefox/Chrome/... and relative positioning for IE6/7. I took the liberty to make it a bit more standards-compliant, but I didn't touch the table for the error message so the default style doesn't need changing.
