   I'd like to have the option of not having the polaroid type frame on captioned images in posts in Twenty Eleven. Can they be removed?

   The blog I need help with is theopensuitcase.wordpress.com.

   You will have to do it on an image by image basis then in the post editor in the HTML tab. You will add this

   background: none;

   to the opening div for the captioned image so that it looks similar to this

   <div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 250px; background: none;">

   [caption id="" align="alignright" width="240"]<img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7218/7236197272_c00097bf22_m.jpg" alt="Union Station Timetable" width="240" height="180" /> Every departure's on time?

   This is the coding for the photo and caption in my post's html. i don't see code like you mention?

   Sorry, I fogot the caption stuff looks different in the editor than it does in the source code. Make the opening caption bit look like this:

   [caption id="" style="background: none;" align="alignright" width="240"]

   Something has changed with 2010 I think. I've used this before to get rid of backgrounds on captions. I can do it on all captioned images via CSS. If you want to do that, then add this to your custom CSS.

   .wp-caption {
   background:  none;
   }
