How to wrap text around image? | WordPress.org

Hi just started using WordPress for a new website. I’m having problems getting text to wrap around an image even though when I insert the image into the text and it gives me the options for None, Left, Center, Right when I preview, it places it above the text (although it displays in the edit window in the right place).

I’ve used a blog theme but managed to make it work as a web page so this may be the problem?

Unless you provide a link to a page demonstrating the problem, no one will be able to offer much in the way of specific help.

Try adding:
```
.aligncenter {
	display: block;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
}
.alignleft {
	float: left;
}
.alignright {
	float: right;
}
img.alignleft {
	margin-right:10px;
	margin-bottom:10px;
}
img.alignright {
	margin-leftt:10px;
	margin-bottom:10px;
}
```
to the bottom of style.css.
