That is actually added by the theme itself. Other themes handle this differently, but Twenty Eleven and a few others add the - for extra visual distinction.

The sidebar's width is 188 pixels.

Given that the caption adds a border, try making the image 180 pixels wide.

greetings,

2011 theme

i've used the image widget to place an image in the sidebar with a caption below it. a grey background/border is placed around it which is fine but the image is always off-center and the caption is too.

i've re-cropped the image making it smaller and smaller but same problem. current size is 220px x 200px. i could find documentation on pixel width of sidebar for this theme??

thanks for this and all the help you supporters give!!

David
