 * In the WYSIWYG, if I align the image to the left, I get this code:
 * class=”alignleft size-full wp-image-168″
 * Unfortunately, the code doesn’t actually align the image to the left allowing
   the text to wrap around it like I want. I have to manually change the code to:
   align=”left” for it to work.
 * Why does Word Press do this? Is there something I’m doing wrong or a workaround?

 * Try adding styling for `alignleft` to your theme’s stylesheet.
