   I am trying to use a .gif image of a suit symbol on my blog. In the visual display it looks fine, but when it is actually posted, it appears in a shadowed box. Is there something in the code below that is making it do that?

   <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1547" title="s" src="http://swatchless.wordpress.com/files/2008/11/s.gif" alt="s" width="13" height="11" />

   Otherwise, I don't understand why I am having this problem.

   Thanks, Cathy

   You mean it's the first time you notice that? That's the way images are displayed in the theme you're using.

   Are you sure you need a gif? Wouldn't plain html do? The spade in html is:

   (But you'll need to make its size bigger.)

   Oh, I see....I hadn't connected how my pics are displayed with the suit pics....dumb. I am using html suit symbols at the moment but they are really lousy looking:

   So, I am thinking of pics instead. But I guess I'll just stick with lousy looking but much easier!
