Images are pushing over other posts

Somewhere in your second post you have added a left align by the looks of it. Check through your post [in code preferably] and see what kind of alignment is happening with your text and/or images.

Smilies -if you are not putting them in deliberately are coming from you typing a combination of characters [:)]or you have a plugin forcing them?

There is nothing in the code about alignment.

I’m not aware of any plug ins for smilies. They just started showing up though so they could be coming from some other plug in I installed that servers another purpose?

How about a clearing div? I had a similar issue on a theme, added a clearing div post the content worked like a charm… below from single.php but you get the idea, i use it in category view…

<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this entry &raquo;
'); ?>
<?php link_pages('<strong>Pages:</strong> ', '
', 'number'); ?>
<div class="clearing"></div>
<h5><?php the_tags('Tags>> ', ' | ' , ''); ?></h5>
<p class="postmetadata alt">

and in css my clearing has

.clearing {
	clear: both;
	height: 1px;
	margin-top: 1px;
}

The_tags obviously being a 2.3 thing…
