Ok, I have asked this before and did not have any luck. I moved to WordPress from movable type as it seems like it is alot better however I do not know how to theme it and cannot fgure out how everyone gets images into their blog posts with thumbnails that actually look good and fit around the text. If anyone could help me with either themeing or helping me find a few hacks please please reply as I do not really want to move away from WordPress.
Thanks.

Themes are literally unzipped and uploaded to wp-content/themes
As for wrapping text around images, there are a few ways, one of which is here:

I mean wrapping images like they have been on: http://www.roobottom.com/diary/ also can you upload images from WP-Admin?

My page above wraps like that, and yes, if you go to Options > Misc you can enable uploads.

I enabled the uploads but it will not create the thumbnails, is there and 'image' plugins which would allow me to upload, insert, create thumbnail and position the image where i want within my post?

erm, I sort of hacked the Word Press source code so my diary automatically generates those thumbnails from the original large image from the upload. I'll turn this into a plug-in when I get some time, that's if no-one beats me to it!
