 * Working with the footer.php file adding lists to it (twenty Twelve theme) and
   the footer is not wrapping around the HTML that I am putting in.
    Here’s the 
   link. Any thoughts? Sure it’s an easy answer, but can’t find the answer. [http://www.aequus.us/about-us/](http://www.aequus.us/about-us/)

 * Use the following CSS:
 *     ```
       footer[role="contentinfo"] {
         background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #388dca;
         border: 2px solid #000;
         border-radius: 5px;
         clear: both;
         color: #fff;
         font-size: 0.857143rem;
         height: 9rem;
         line-height: 2;
         margin-left: auto;
         margin-right: auto;
         margin-top: 1.71429rem;
         max-width: 68.5714rem;
         padding: 1em 0;
       }
       ```

 * One simple way I think you can do it is to change/overwrite a css rule:
    In your
   stylesheet at line 708 you have something like:
 *     ```
       .aequusImage {
           float: left;
           display: inline;
           margin: 0px 20px;
       }
       ```
   
 * this has to be overwritten so you can either create a child theme or add the 
   css inline (if you have this optin) or use a custom css plugin to add the fallowing
   rule:
 *     ```
       .aequusImage {
           display: inline;
           margin: 0px 20px;
       }
       ```
   
 * And that should do the trick. There are other solutions too.
