Default Wordpress Text Wrapping around images

I can't figure out how to get my text to wrap around an image in my wordpress blog.
You can see it here for an example: http://newpokerpromotions.com/?p=25

I want the text to go beside the photo all the way down the post. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

If you add a div code before and after the image post then that should not be a problem

I am sorry I misunderstood your post. I thought you didnt want the text wrapped around the image.

The method is slightly different depending on your version of wordpress.

In Wordpress 2.5 and 2.6, you select the image, click the image icon to edit the image details, then select the appropriate Alignment option in the popup window.

Earlier versions of Wordpress have a different image settings popup, in which case you select the alignment option as a dropdown menu.

If you let me know what version you have I'll create a screengrab to for clarity.

Yeah, just set it to align="left" or align="right". Also, don't forget to put about 5px of padding so that the text doesn't brush right up against the image. It doesn't look too nice when it does that.

Yeah, just choose Align > Left under the picture options and you should find the text wrap around the image.

On a slightly different note, you might want to have a look at Permalinks too so that your page URLs are more user friendly ...

As you seem to be willing to blog a lot, don't forget to add a rss feed subscriber, and explain why your visitors should subscribe.

I feel really stupid, but I can't figure this out. I've aligned it left, right, at the front of the post, in the middle, etc and it keeps taking up a full block of space.

Thanks for the tips already, but does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

The text wraps around the image in the editor, but then I view the page its no longer wrapped!
