Welcome to image alignment! The best way to demonstrate the ebb and flow of the various image positioning options is to nestle them snuggly among an ocean of words. Grab a paddle and lets get started.
On the topic of alignment, it should be noted that users can choose from the options ofNone,Left,Right,andCenter. In addition, they also get the options ofThumbnail,Medium,Large&Fullsize.
The image above happens to becentered.
The rest of this paragraph is fillerfor the sake of seeing the text wrap around the 150150 image, which isleft aligned.
As you can see the should be some space above, below, and to the right of the image. The text should not be creeping on the image. Creeping is just not right. Images need breathing room too. Let them speak like you words. Let them do their jobs without any hassle from the text. In about one moresentencehere, well see that the text moves from the right of the image down below the image inseamlesstransition. Again, letting the do its thang.Mission accomplished!
And now for amassively large image. It also hasno alignment.
The image above, though 1200px wide, should not overflow the content area. It should remain contained with no visible disruption to the flow of content.
And now were going to shift things to theright align. Again, there should be plenty of room above, below, and to the left of the image. Just look at him there Hey guy! Way to rock that right side. I dont care what the left aligned image says, you look great. Dont let anyone else tell you differently.
In just a bit here, you should see the text start to wrap below the right aligned image and settle in nicely. There should still be plenty of room and everything should be sitting pretty.Yeah Just like that. It never felt so good to be right.
And just when you thought we were done, were going to do them all over again with captions!
The image above happens to becentered. The caption also has a link in it, just to see if it does anything funky.
