I, who thought myself a moderately competent user of very basic html, am completely bewildered by AO3's handling of images. I managed to embed my images for Goodnight Bears into the text just fine just fine in the LJ/DW posts using a handy dandy guide to tables, but the same code used on AO3 resulted in no images at all.
"All right," said I, gritting my teeth, "I will use AO3's rich text interface." (Thbbt.) So I did, and managed to not only unbreak the images (though I still don't understand why they were broken in the first place) but also get them aligned where I wanted them. Everything in the rich text window looked great! W00t!
Then I previewed, and now I have huge swathes of white space next to my images, rather than the wrap-around-images look the rich text window promised me.
UGH.
(Suggestions welcome. I am about done for now; I have to go to work soon. Yay for posting to teensybang, anyway.)
