  For years, I have been able to copy and paste images into WordPress. All of the sudden, I can no longer do that as of today. My images show up in boxes, so I can tell something is different about the site.

  When I paste an image, the image moves to the top of the page and cannot be moved anywhere else. Now, the only way to get the image where I need it is to embed a picture, but that option does not allow me to alter the size of the image to the size of every other image on the page and will not allow me to align with text as I have done on my site for years.

  Any suggestions? Why the sudden change?

  Thanks!

  Where did you copy and paste images from?

  Amazon. I post book covers and have always used that site for this purpose. I link directly to the web site, of course, so I’m not just stealing the image.

  What is the URL of the exact blog you are referring to?
  It cannot be http://alando1423.wordpress.com/ founded on November 15, 2008 and devoid of content.

  If you will scroll down to Chinese Handcuffs by Chris Crutcher, you will see where things look different.
