		<description>Not sure what theme you are using, but in Yacht Help Desk all I did was style the Writer_bio class with float left commend. Both for the Paragraph and image.

#writer_bio{
  border:1px solid #CECFD0;
  background: #EFEFEF; 
  margin:0 auto;
  margin-bottom:10px;
  overflow:hidden;
  float:left; 
}

#writer_bio img{  
  margin:0;  
  padding:10px;  
  float:left;
  border:0;  
  }

Maybe this will help</description>

		<description>Thanks, I have really searching for this!... i have everything working, but i can seem to make the &quot;AIM&quot; image float to the left, so that my text can be flush next to it... my image is on the first line.

I styled the &#039;Writer_bio&#039; class, but how can i style the &quot;AIM&quot; class or what ever it is called.

thanks</description>

		<description>Hi thanks for a great idea. I am new at this so forgive me for the nubness:

At the end of your post you mentioned that we might want to add some styling. How do i do that? 

In your code we are calling a class=&#039;writer_bio&#039; is that were I can do this? where do i store this class? could you elaborate on this part?

The code works like a charm so thanks</description>

		<description>Will this work if your blog is hosted on WordPress.com? If so, where would one find the &quot;single.php&quot; file? 

Yep. I&#039;m a newbie. :)

Thanks in advance!

		<description>@Douglas Actually yes, different solutions for different issues. 

For a one to one basis the custom field solution works great. 

My solution came about needing to add a bio and pic to over 80 posts for an author in a specific category who did not have a Gravatar account. Although yes any changes to single.php would effect your entire site&#039;s single posts...you can use custom &quot;post&quot; templates to have certain category posts appear different than others.  

There has to be a in between solution for automated post to post bio/pic with no regards to the category they are in. The reason I say automated is that although many people are WP savvy, there are many more out there who are not and the only direction they can take is &quot;Write in that big box and then click save or publish.&quot;

Keep up the great work, can&#039;t wait to read more!</description>

		<description>@Gabe WordPress ate your php, so thanks for the link! The decision you made with your solution is that every single post would have a bio. Here on Fuel Your Coding, some posts have bios and some do not, which is why the custom field is helpful. Perhaps a custom field &quot;hide_bio&quot; would work better in your situation.

Also if you have control over which authors you publish, you could generate an avatar based on their email address: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Gravatars</description>

		<description>Great tip but adding custom fields to every post may get tiring after awhile so I choose the following to call the image:

&lt;img src=&quot;/images/.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;alignleft&quot;/&gt;

If your post will always have an author then you can just pass any of the values you filled out in your author profile to bring up a specific named pic. 

Feel free to read the complete entry for more info:

		<description>@Jason No problem. The AIM field is supposed to be for AIM user ids... that&#039;s why this is called a WP Hack :)</description>
