I think Michael is referring to the fact that the image extends down into the next post.

Thanks. Oddly, it doesn't on my screen and I use fairly large resolution. But, apparently, with very large resolution, it does.

Michael suggested a fix offline that I'm having Ed look into.

Large images like that really screw with the page formatting.

What are you seeing? In both Firefox and IE, it's displaying fine for me. I keep image sizes under 600 pixels so that they don't expand the middle column; this one's 427. Usually, I specify an image size by a width= command but it doesn't work well for text-intensive images, so I just cropped it.

Hell James, if it works for spammers why not campaign activists?

Large images like that really screw with the page formatting. Have whomever is maintaining the site's design add a "clear: both" style attribute to an element after the article, that should fix it.
