  Good Morning
  In the past few days I have been having problems with text and photo placement. On my Wordless Wednesday post I have one header and a photo, then another header and photo. Normally I create the two headers and place a photo under each with no problem. In the past week this no longer gives me the proper spacing. My second header now ends up next to the first photo. If I hit return a few times to move the second text line under the first photo, it results in a huge space between the first photo and the second line of text in the preview although it looks like only one space in the visual editor.

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

  Re: Images
  Are you using the instructions here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/
  See also http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/
  and http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-alignment/

  Using the Right and Left alignment icons for images create text wrap. If you don’t want text wrap then set your image alignment to either “none” or “center”.

  Another approach you can use when you have multiple images is to create an HTML table to display them in. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/03/24/align-images-html-tables-for-wordpress-blogs/

  You’re welcome. I find the HTML table approach works well for me. I can place images exactly where I want them by using a table.
