?Format image/text alignment

First, great product, thank you!

What if any options do I have with the image/text alignment format with images placed inside a feed' description? (Displaying xml from another site.)

As is, the text is hanging off the bottom right similar to an orphan. I would prefer to have it wrapped, or beginning on the next line, if these options aren't available then I'd like to exclude the image from the feed entirely.

Thank you.

You have almost complete control of all this in your template file.

In the template file? I don't see how that could be. If the image is part of the ~~~ItemDescription~~~ how would I exclude?

Perhaps you could provide some clue as to how I would exploit the "total control".

Thank you.

An image in ~~~ItemDescription~~~ you have no control over, other then some advanced CSS tricks. The feed's image you do.

I see. My bad. I wrote 'feed' in my orginal post. I'll look into the css tricks. Any suggestion as a good source for such hints?

And again, thanks for such a great product!

Here is an article I remember about using CSS to remove banner ads.

It should a sampling of what might be done.

The other possiblity is to write some PHP code to modify the description before it replaces ~~~ItemDescription~~~
