    I am currently using this code to right or left justify with float in wordpress, how do I put some space around the graphic so that it isn't right up against the image.

    <p style="float: left"><img src="image goes here" alt="" /></p>

    Thanks

    If you are using Wordpress you should be able to do that by simply editing the post.

    Get in edit mode, and click on the picture within the post. Then on top you should see two tabs. One is Edit Image, one is Advanced Settings. Using Edit Image tell it how you want to align. Then using Advanced Settings tell it how much space you want around it under Image Properties.

    That works, but how do you keep the text from smashing right up against the photo. It would be nice to have a little whitespace for readability.

    Actually what camp185 said worked fine. The visual view shows the text right up against the photo, but when I preview it, it works fine. Thanks.
