This is the best description of how to do the wrapped layout that I've seen. Thanks!
For aligning images and wrapping text, what's a good width for the images? I've been using 850 pixels wide for my full-sized images. But the word wrapping around images requires smaller images, right?
Is their any way to have two columns in an article, too?
Do these layouts take longer to load, especially on a phone? Thanks!
I judge by eye. You can test out different image sizes in the preview viewer with some dummy text and html to see what size works best for you. If there is no space, the text won't fit to wrap, no.
Thanks a lot for answering my questions. I will definitely do some testing about the image size that works. I like the article on how to do a 2-column layout, too. I', glad to know that the layouts don't affect loadtime. I already try to keep my images small. Thanks, again!
I feel a bit silly that I didn't even realize you could use html lol - I've just been using markdown, still powerful in its simplicity, but pure html definitely gives you a whole new level of control
Thanks for this, the div classes for left / right alignment are especially great tips. Good stuff to add to my formatting toolbox. Shame it can't be done with markdown though. After getting used to basic markdown syntax, I find HTML so wordy and cumbersome.
Hehe. I used both, mix and match in the RAW HTML editor. Use HTML when you need it, like the image alignment. Otherwise, just stick to markdown that you are comfortable with.
Use the best of both world, be a markdown + html user ;P
I agree this is a good way to go. What markdown does, it does very well. And then HTML can be a fallback for the things it doesn't support. I really like how the editor allows you to mix & match as needed.
I do commands in Raw HTML, like "< hr> or <div ...>"
If I go back to Editor and make a single command (eg Bold or Italic), I lose all the "< hr> "... insert in Raw HTML .

Two columns: https://steemit.com/steemit/@movievertigo/how-to-make-2-and-3-column-layouts-for-your-posts-without-tables
Is that a good enough article?
The layouts don't make any difference. Image size does. I resize a lot of my images to keep them around ~100k or less.

Same here. In part, I though raw HTML wasn't okay because of security concerns.

Thanks for this guide! It is really useful, and definitely something I should look into doing. But is it possible to do this with Markdown?
No, you can't do this with markdown. You need the power of HTML to use these enhanced alignment features.
In RAW HTML mode, you can still add Markdown manually, but you won't have the editor to do it for you.
I have a problem. If I use Editor and make changes in Raw HTML, I lose all editor codes.
The editor has issues switching between the two modes. I can't go back to Editor mode after I start in RAW mode. Is that what you mean?
I do commands in Raw HTML, like "< hr> or <div ...>"

Yeah sorry, I don't switch. That's a bug in the editor I guess.
Alright! Thanks for answering my question :)
