Prevent WordPress from wrapping P tags around images

I would really like an answer to this, too. If I wanted p tags around my pictures, I’d put them there.

Hi

I realise you guys have probably either figured this out or given up on it but seeing as this shows up right at the top of google results for this problem then I thought I would say how to solve it.

As it says in the topic at http://wordpress.org/support/topic/119014?replies=6 , wordpress knows that an img tag loose outside of p tags is invalid code (although it is valid if you have a containing div tag, as most themes do). WordPress detects that you haven’t got a block level element around the image, and inserts p tags around it.

To solve this, you can put a div tag around the image, for example:
<div><img src='image.jpg' alt='an image' /></div>.
This will cause WordPress to leave your image alone.
