    Without changing my css file, I am trying to figure out how to add a space between my image and my text, which is below the image. I thought I could use html mode in my article edit panel and add
    but it isn’t working.

    Any suggestions?

    I know I can edit the image and add a css parameter there, but isn’t there a way to do it just adding html code within the article itself?

    You can create an inline style.. so you put the css inside of the html.

    Why are you so adamant about not changing the CSS? it would make things a million times easier.

    Thanks for your help. I don’t want to change the css file because I don’t know how to. I had a designer help me with some things but I’d rather try to sort out this kind of sfuff on my own if I can.

    Also some of my post images have captions under them and some don’t, so I think it would get more complicated than I could ever figure out.

    I’ll research creating inline style and see if that’s something I can manage.

    Thanks again.

    if you want to sort it out on your own you will have to learn CSS.. its as simple as that.. When you own a website and you want to be able to change little things in the look and design you need to do one of two things

    1. hire someone who can do these changes for you
    2. learn how to do the changes yourself

    I know this may not be the “best” way, but it worked for me…

    I just used the simple image widget and a small spacer image.

    This will give you a hard line feed that will not disappear when you save a draft or publish a post. Switch to HTML editing with the tab at the top and paste this in. It will stay when you switch back to visual.

    <br class=”blank” />

    Bit clumsy I guess but works.

    Hope this helps.

    A belated, ‘thank you’ to everyone for your help. Saildude, I tried adding the <br class=”blank” /> code after my image in html mode, but it didn’t create a space under the image. Any suggestions?

    OK I finally figured this out by editing the image, and adding a margin at the bottom.
