Images add eye appeal and have a visual impact in attracting and communicating with your visitors and readers. Wayne John I like the way you keep it real. Wayne you give step by step image instructions and you, also, give the readers permission to play with adding an image to their post and permission to make mistakes until they get it.

And Dana who reads newspapers anymore?

I think your blog looks nice, however I see some prior posts that have extra carriage returns that would cause your text to drop below the image. Let me know what happens when you do your next post with images. And thanks, it's like you know me. haha @Dana – If you write your text and then insert your images like described above, it should work.

BUT (how shall I say this) uhhhh.... Gary's looks like a real newspaper. The words flow better around his photos. (You have no idea how much I hate giving him such a compliment) I have always gone into HTML and cut the photos info and placed it lower in the post. Yah, I can do that, but maybe my photos (or size of the letters) are too large to look nice???? Could THAT be it?? Oh please, make it be something simple like that. OK.

I looked at the last one and thought to myself 'too clinical...I need more humor', and that's how I tend to be when explaining computer stuff. Logical and dry. I'm trying to break that, and if it means making an ass of myself for a few laughs, then so be it. I think people will retain more when a little humor is involved. @BakerWatson - One of the first things I did before really starting to push out posts and promote this blog was find the easiest way to create and publish posts. I didn't want to spend more time than was necessary. I'll have a few posts in the future that describe what I did and how I post my stuff that I think everyone will benefit from. As for the templates, I too am experiencing the same problems from time to time. Not easy to get everything exactly the way you want it the first time out the gate is it! So much to write on, so little time! @Karen – I’ll pay you the $5 I owe you for that comment soon. hahaha I’m glad to hear that these things seem to work well.

Maybe I should say the most time-consuming. I prefer to float most of my images to the right or left and have the text wrap around them. Because I use a template with a rather narrow section for posting this is often a headache as it is hard to get the 'wrap' right at times. (I probably would have opted for a template with a wider posting area had I thought it out a bit in advance.) The preview is useless for alignment as it presumes a wide area for the posting. At least I'm getting a little better at adjusting them for the desired look. I follow your advice by approaching it 'methodically, step-by-step' when making adjustments and I'm always looking for ways to make it easier.
