Hello,
Thanks for your reply. I don’t have an example because when I noticed the problem I reverted to the standard size choices offered in the media library when inserting an image into a post: small, medium, or large.
I can’t use large for my blog (www.dowdycornerscookbookclub.com)because that size is too large for my posting column.
So if I want to make an image bigger than just “medium,” but not as large as WP’s “large,” I need to go into HTML mode (pasted below) and increase the width and height manually. When I did this, the image size inceased but the box around the image and the caption area remained the same size.
Thanks!!

As you’ve seen, that approach rarely works correctly and it still means that your visitors are downloading the original image – not your resized version.
Why not reduce the dimensions of your large image in Settings -> Media?
Thank you! Eh, I didn’t know there was such a simple solution. My problem is now solved.
