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
<p>
<p>

<p>
or

<br>

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.
