  When adding an image to my blog posts, an outline (border or background?) appears. For an example, see the image that contains Roger Linn’s signature in the following post:
  https://culturedear.wordpress.com/2015/06/11/why-y/

  I’ve looked in the forums and it seems that I’d need to purchase a premium package to have the capability of removing the outline. Is that the only way?

  Please advise,
  James Weaver

  Thanks. I tried that but it still has something around it. Here’s the code:

  <img class=”none alignnone wp-image-170″ style=”border: none;” src=”https://culturedear.files.wordpress.com/2015/06/rogers-signature.png?w=150″ alt=”Roger’s signature” width=”200″ height=”79″ />

  Please advise.

  When HTML 4.0 was introduced some attributes became deprecated and I believe image borders may have been among them, so I tagged this thread for a Staff response.

  That isn’t actually a traditional border. In the Twenty Twelve theme, it’s a border radius and a box shadow.

  Try style="border-radius:0;box-shadow:none;" in your image tag.

  Well, well there’s another example of my missing word problem caused by distraction and/or boredom. I’m going to view that shortcoming as another reason for me to kick my answer support questions addiction, fully retire, and leave this site very soon.

  @javafxpert
  Thanks so much for the kind words but it really is time for me to say good bye. I’ve been online for 10 years now. I have given up far too much for the love of blogging, I have health issues, and now I’m using my voice again (singing in choirs) I don’t have time to blog. Best wishes to you.
