(raincoaster-And here I thought I'd read the entire FAQ about images! /sound of hand smacking forehead!)

timethief, that is just what I was trying to do using the existing style sheet.But does having my blog hosted on wordpress.com make any difference in my ability to apply these classes? As I said above, when I tried to use them in the code editor, when I saved, it appeared to strip out the CSS class.

Update: Color me happy! Works like a charm. :) Thanks for pointing me to the info.

I'm just interested in applying the class selectors in the linked stylesheet used by the theme I'm using (Cutline). Specifically, I'd like to be able to wrap the text of my post to the right or left of any photo I post, but if I try to use the class selector, the text editor strips them out when I save.

Until you do that, you can't make any changes. What exactly are you trying to do? I might know a non-CSS workaround.

Even when I try to apply those, they are stripped out by the editor.
