  Those are part of the Caption Code. If you get rid of the Caption code by either not filling one in when uploading the image OR by going back and editing out the square bracket Caption code in the HTML editor, the grey frames will go away.

  Do you have the custom design upgrade or not?

  I’m having the same problem, except I’m using wordpress for free so I don’t have access to much. Is there a way I can get rid of the frames even though I’m using wordpress for free?

  @zanybah
  No. You would require a custom design upgrade so you can edit the CSS.

  @zanybah: You need the Custom Design upgrade to get rid of the borders once for all, but you don’t need it if you don’t mind editing each image in the HTML editor. Change the image code from this:
  <img class=ETC ETC ETC
  to this:
  <img style="border:none;" class=ETC ETC ETC

  If you leave the “caption” of the picture blank, won’t it do the same thing?

  @cafinny and tanishanjermaine
  zanybah is using the Twenty Eleven theme. She is not creating capions at all. That theme supplies a thin white border around image — it’s not the gray caption one you are thinking of at all.

  Tks, timethief. She said grey in her original post, so I figured…

  If she changes her theme, would that do it?

  @cafinny: hartiatech and zanybah are two different bloggers. Timethief and I replied to zanybah’s question. Hartiatech may be referring to the same thing or to captioned images, but personally I don’t give replies when no link to the blog in question is provided.

  Thanks for pointing that out, panaghiotisadam. Doesn’t look like she’ll be back.

  I’m sorry about not providing a link. Here. Also, I’m using the theme “Twenty Eleven”.

  Thank you all for sharing your knowledge. Obviously, I’m new to this. Studying webdesign and coding, though. I appreciate your feedback!

  @zanybah: You’re welcome. And your username was linked to your blog from the start, so we didn’t need anything else: we could see your blog, and I did give you the solution to your question. The one with no link was hartiatech, not you.

  You’re a tremendous help, thank you.

  ah, yes, I am here. I thought I had replied to this post. I am still having the same problem, but I suppose it comes with the theme? I have the upgrade. I am not sure what you mean by providing a link. I haven’t been asked this before and thought you could go directly to my site by clicking on my gravatar? The border appears around all images.

  Hi hartiatech.

  No, the gravatar isn’t clickable. Providing a link means pasting the URL of your blog when you post here, or making your username link to your blog (as you’ve now done).

  Some themes display borders around images, some don’t. You can change that by editing the code of each image, if you don’t have the Custom Design upgrade, and you can change it once for all if you have the upgrade.

  But… “The border appears around all images”? The blog now linked to your username has only one image, and that image has no border. So obviously you’re talking about a different blog.

  So:
  a) Start a new thread in the CSS section of the forum.
  b) Link to the blog in question. CSS is theme-specific: we can’t answer your question if we can’t see the blog.
