 * Running WP 2.8.5 & Thesis 1.6
 * Everything was working fine until about 2 hours ago.
 * I’m posting pictures with captions to the right of the photos and I want all 
   of the photos to be one on top of the other. However every time I hit save everything
   crams together filling up any empty space.
 * I would like each photo and caption to be separated as its own paragraph.
 * I can go in to the html editor and add an NBSP and then save and then it looks
   right. But as soon as I go back to the visual editor it automatically deletes
   the NBSP.
 * Any ideas?

 * For a start, don’t keep switching between the HTML tab and the Visual tab. As
   you’ve seen, the Visual tab will remove markup that you’ve added in the HTML 
   tab. You’ll need to edit this post in the HTML tab and add `<br style="clear:
   left;" />` between the two captioned images. Once that is in place, don’t use
   the Visual tab again when working on this post.

 * Thank you for your timely response. 8)
 * That would be the easy work around. My problem is that the visual mode is just
   not keeping the paragraph breaks once I put them in. That is why I went to the
   HTML editor.
 * Funny thing is…This problem didn’t exist before 12 Noon today. I used to be able
   to switch back and forth without losing the formatting.
 * I just want this thing to work like it did before lunch.
 * By the way…I found someone on the Thesis forum that is having the same problem.
   So the problem might be in Thesis 1.6
