However, now I would like to place my vertical images side by side like this blog: http://www.brookeholm.com.au/blog/

Is this possible?
Also, is this possible without having to insert image by image and then change their justification? (which by the way didn't seem to work?)

Thanks

This will cancel the wrap-around effect of the left aligned images.

What I want is the two photos next to each other, but with the line of text below and another set of side by side pictures under that. When I inserted the photos I aligned them to the left. I also tried center, which does remove the side text, but then I could not have the two images next to each other.

Normally, I do not have so many photos I want to put within a single post and so haven't dealt with this before.

Thank you for your help.

• Align-left means position left, with the rest of the content wrapping around the right side of the image.
• Align-right means position right, with the rest of the content wrapping around the left side of the image.
• Align-center means position center, with no wrap-around (= the rest of the content below the image).

Every theme has a maximum displayed image width http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/07/23/maximum-image-width/ so it's important to keep that in mind when posting multiple images side-by-side. If you want two images to be side by side on the same line start by setting the alignment of both images to left. To prevent the staggered effect what you do is insert the following snippet of code into the HTML editor after each image/text pair:
<br style="clear:both;" />

Good luck.

<div style="float:left;">
[vimeo http://vimeo.com/39498131 w=480]
</div>
<div style="float:right;">
[vimeo http://vimeo.com/37992053 w=480]
</div>
<br style="clear:both;" />

can I also just change 495px to higher if ever I just want to make the whole thing wider to increase the size of the videos (since they're kinda small now, in order to fit next to each other...)?

<table style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; border: 0;">

In the above code, I have inserted border: 0; as additional table property.

See if this works.

<table style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;"><br /> <tr><br /> <td style="width: 495px; text-align:center;">Video 1 goes here</td><br /> <td style="width: 495px; text-align:center">Video 2 goes here</td><br /> </tr><br /> </table>

Let us see what happens. You might need to change the 495px to slightly less just in case it has borders and margins. With WP CSS style sheet, we are not able to change the main/default style sheet so we need to improvise using inline styles.

Good luck.

<table><tr><td>
**paste code for photograph 1 here**
</td><td>
**paste code for photograph 2 here**
</td></tr></table>

but still, I have to reduce the size of each video considerably for them to "fit" within the width of my header.

I'd sure like to try that "insert explicit width size of the two columns in the above code" that you are talking about but I don't know how to... :s

've looked into those links and have noticed that I already have done what I need to do to have the most width possible (using the no sidebar option), but I still can't manage to put 2 videos one next to the other...perhaps even 990 pixels is still not wide enough for that...

Have you tried puting the 2 videos in a table of 1 row by 2 columns? It is worth a try.

<table><br /> <tr><br /> <td>Video 1 goes here</td><br /> <td>Video 2 goes here</td><br /> </tr><br /> </table>

When this done and if it still does't work then you could insert explicit width size of the two columns in the above code. But do one step at a time.

Good luck.

Side by Side Images
If you would like to see images appear side by side on the same line, put the images next to each other and give them both either left or right alignment. Make sure the images are small enough that they will both fit on one line, including borders and margins. http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-alignment/#side-by-side

<div style="float:left;margin-right:24px;">
[polldaddy poll=5251279]
</div>
[polldaddy poll=5251296]
<br style="clear:both;" />

You can change the margin-right number to adjust the space between the two polls.

http://shapechangertales.com/shapechanger-stories/poll-test/

As you can see it displays both polls, but one below the other. They are both set to NARROW and would fit beside each other.

If I place the shortcode for the two polls side-by-side the second poll only shows up as text beneath the first poll.
