# Image Alignment Problems

 * Last week I finally updated to WP 2.9.2, having been on a 2.5.?? version since
   I started my blog a couple of years ago. With this new version, I can’t get the
   post images to align correctly.
 * My blog: [http://otminteriors.com/wordpress/](http://otminteriors.com/wordpress/)
 * I typically like to have images on the left, with the text to the right of and
   wrapping underneath the images. Before updating to 2.9.2, this type of alignment
   wasn’t a problem. Now, even though the images appear to align the way I want 
   them to in the post “Edit” mode, when published, they’re all left-justified and
   either above or below the text (no “wrapping”). I’ve tried changing the alignment
   via the options in the image editor; all that seems to do is change the caption
   alignment under the photos.
 * Is this a problem with the image editor?
 * I’m not very tech-savvy (I have basic knowledge of html), so any solutions in
   layman’s terms would be helpful.
 * Thanks,
    Sheila

 * I can’t see any problems with image alignment or text wrapping on your home page…

 * your theme’s style.css seems to be missing the styles for `.alignleft`, `.aligncenter`,
   and `.alignright`
 * you can find corresponding styles in the style.css of the default theme that 
   comes with the wordpress installation.

 * Thanks, esmi and alchymyth.
 * esmi – the images in today’s post are supposed to be center-aligned, but, as 
   you can see, they’re on the left. (I had actually wanted them to be left-aligned
   with text wrapping, but no matter what I did within the image editor, that wasn’t
   happening.)
 * alchymyth – do I have to activate the default theme to see its style.css? Where
   do I paste those styles in my current theme’s stylesheet? And why, if those align
   styles are missing, is the alignment okay on earlier posts on that page (see 
   April 1 “Rustic Design” and earlier posts)? Wouldn’t the missing .alignleft, 
   etc. affect the whole home page?
 * Thanks, again. I really appreciate your help!
