  I am trying to create a little space between my immages and the text. Can someone take a look at it and give me suggestions on how to fix it? My address is longhollowwomen.wordpress.com. Thanks!

  Each theme designer chose how to treat images in the theme. If you use text wrapping and the text is to close too the image you can place the image in a program like Microsoft Paint or Photoshop and add a border all around it in the same colour as the background prior to uploading.
  I also found the instructions for “text around image” wrapping using the FAQs search box. http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/29/how-do-i-get-text-to-go-around-a-picture/
  Lastly I checked the forum search box and found a technique using the visual rich text editor tabs http://wordpress.com/forums/topic.php?id=3604&replies=5#post-23330

  Try just adding some vertical and horizontal space around the image. After putting the image in the post, click on it and then click on the little tree-looking icon in the menu bar of the editor. That will bring up a box allowing you to enter something in the vertical & horizontal areas. I use 5 or 10 pixels generally.
