Help with a polaroid picture
http://www.squidoo.com/alberteinsteinspeaks
In the above, new lens I have a polaroid picture of a stamp. It is integral to the lens. However, it doesn't look good. I know there is a way to fix that, but don't know how.
Any expert advice?
Also, a couple of the modules run together too much. I have rearranged the modules and it is better, but any more and it will mess up the flow. Can anything be done there?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Help with a polaroid picture
images in the Polaroid module have to be 400 pixels wide or they get stretched to fill the space

Re: Help with a polaroid picture
and I'll add:
If you cannot get your stamp image to be that large (400px)......upload it to a file on the internet and put it directly into a text module <p align="center"><img src="http://www....."></p>
If your modules are not giving you enough space, you can always put a couple of

or

after your content, or, as I've done, design a line photo as a separater, and put the photo link in a text module.

Re: Help with a polaroid picture
Thanks to both of you! I actually solved the crowding problem by putting a module in between and then putting a . in the box, so it just makes a space. Looks much better.
Now, at the risk of sounding stupid or ungrateful, by upload it to a file on the internet?
I have it on my desktop. Is that what you mean?

Re: Help with a polaroid picture
They mean to upload it to a service such as photobucket. Once you do that photobucket will give you the html you need to put into your text module.
I hope that helps clarify things.

Re: Help with a polaroid picture
Yes, It does. Now I will try to get photobucket, but you made it a lot clearer!
