    Can someone look at my page: http://earthtodavid.com/my-fanlistings/

    and tell me why the 50 X 50 icons are lining up vertically instead of horizontally as they normally would on a regular HMTL page? Do I need to use some extra img code in wordpress to make them align side by side instead of underneath each other?

    David,
    This has to do with the way WordPress handles content that you enter via admin. Whenever you press enter in the Content box, WordPress will add a tag. Pressing enter twice between lines of content will put each line into separate paragraphs. Hopefull the following examples will illustrate (code has been shortened):

    Content Box

    <a href=""><img /></a>
<a href=""><img /></a>
<a href=""><img /></a>

    Filtered HTML

    <a href=""><img /></a>
<a href=""><img /></a>
<a href=""><img /></a>

    Content Box

    <a href=""><img /></a>

<a href=""><img /></a>

<a href=""><img /></a>

    Filtered HTML

    <a href=""><img /></a>

<a href=""><img /></a>

<a href=""><img /></a>

    For your page, I would suggest entering the linked images without pressing enter between each one:

    Content Box
    <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a> <a href=""><img /></a>

    mfields thank you so much for your help. I didn’t even think about how wordpress would put the tags in there for how I entered the html for the images. I entered the linked images just as you said and now the images line up just like I wanted them to.

    I am very new to wordpress. I would have never figured this out if you hadn’t helped. Thanks!!!
