  Could you please phrase the question that clarifies exactly what you are seeking help with, without typing in all capital letters? In the cyberworld using all capitals is equivalent to SHOUTING! into another person’s face.

  All theme here are the unique creations of their designers. They are not cookie cutter themes from cookie cutter templates. There is a Themes Showcase here http://theme.wordpress.com/ It’s a live demo site and you can use the feature filters in the search utility to find a theme you like.

  These instructions definitely do work. http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-alignment/ If your are posting multiple image then set the first image as left aligned and set the others to “none”.

  Those instructions don’t work for me. Maybe they dont’ work because I’m trying to wrap text in a text widget.

  My Facebook page is at (email visible only to moderators and staff). There’s only one image on the page. It’s the one I’m having problems with. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have as to how to fix this problem. Thanks!

  I’m assuming you will be interested to know that if you are placing the code for a Facebook like box widget in your sidebar it will not work here on WordPress.com blogs. The code will be stripped out to preserve security as this is a multuser blogging platform.

  I’m going out a a limb here and providing the following as I don’t think your issue is necessarily a text wrapping issue. If it truly is then please post again.

  1. You can post a Facebook badge in your sidebar. http://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-badge/
  2. You can also enable sharing buttons on your posts, pages and index pages.

  3. You can have Facebook like & share buttons on your posts.

  4. You can use a Twitter widget > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/twitter-widget/
  5. You can post a twitter follow button > http://en.support.wordpress.com/twitter-follow-button/
  6. You can set up Publicize > http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/

  @Jane Henry: If you’re talking about the text widget on the blog linked to your username, you need to add some coding. Turn this:

  <img src="etcetc." /> FIRST PARAGRAPH
  SECOND PARAGRAPH

  To this:

  <p><img class="alignleft" src="etcetc." /> FIRST PARAGRAPH</p>
  <p>SECOND PARAGRAPH</p>
