  I so dont like the way photos are uploaded currently, its one at a time, then when you select the alignment of them no matter how many times I edited there turn out funny, example:

  EarthDay 2010 events – photos included

  see how the first four are shown in a perfect line? then the other two are stacked on top of each other, I would love to post more photos in my post, but untill I get the alignment set right I wont. There should be a multiple image upload feature
  that works as a template where you can paste or move them right then and there each photo to where you want it shown in the post.

  plus the current way is to time consuming (for us novices) a multiple upload feature would be nice – just a thought

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I gave up wrestling with this eons ago. I use HTML tables for multiple images and they align perfectly. See > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/03/24/align-images-html-tables-for-wordpress-blogs/

  If you use the gallery feature, the images will line up.

  Ymmm … I do know how to use the gallery. I loathe the way it functions. All my images are unattached as I want them to be and i can display them in HTML tables without going experiencing any frustration so that’s what I do.

  HTML tables are great if you want to code them. Some people may like HTML tables better, and some may like the gallery better. :)

  @ designsimply and TT

  Well i’m a rookies when it comes to HTML (VERY minimal experience) so the simpliest feature would work best for me, im assuming that there is no gallery feature for my theme of choice (ill go back and look through the features) thanks for the suggestions i’ll read up on them both really quick.

  wp should still concider an alternative uploading feature all the same and as TT stated, yes it seemed like wrestling – ugh When the photos are all aligned perfectly that makes the post look so much better oppose to looking botched as if a child was fooling around with.

  Opps that was not meant to be quoted

  i’m like FOREVER getting my apostrophes, backtick and quotation marks mixed up
  when I do it in comments or post it does’nt show as a blockquote like it does here and i’m so adapted to how I type in comments and posts.

  got to step my punctuation game up in the forums
