 * Let’s say I have two blog posts. How can I create a page that would put the posts
   side by side (vertically)?
 * The reason I want to do this is because each post will have many pictures regarding
   my site’s niche, and I want users to compare the two posts and then vote which
   one is better…kind of like a battle!
 * Any thoughts? Thanks!

 * where are the two blog posts coming from?
    how do you want to identify them?
 * possibly by creating a page template, with a loop with a custom query, and some
   html and css.

 * wrap each post into a div, and style this for instance with `width:50%;float:
   left;`

 * Wow, thank you for the quick and detailed response alchymyth!
 * The blog posts will actually be coming from my own site. I’m not sure what you
   mean by ‘identify’ the posts, but ideally I’d like to paste the two posts in 
   some shortcode. I would only want the post content to be included, not things
   like the header/footer found on the actual post.
 * This type of coding is above my pay grade. Is it acceptable on this forum to 
   request outsourcing of the code? If so, please let me know if you are interested
   and your price quote.
 * Thank you!
