   Hi, my source is my WP blog: http://blog.rotaryeastafrica.org. All news items have an image included. However, the RSS feed in my website (http://www.rotaryeastafrica.org, tab: News from our blog) does not display any images, although I set %Description, 300%. Pls advise if I can also display the images per feed item. Thanks!

   Hello knochi,

   sorry for the delay with reply. It seems that the reason for the issue is that you limit the preview to 300 symbols. It can cut the symbols of the image code.
   Try to set %DESCRIPTION% instead.

   Thanks for your reply. I removed the '300' and images are now showing. BUT they are 'all over the place: on top, or below the text but not floating to the top left of the text as in the original post. Is there maybe a specific tag for images that can be inserted into the template and styled?

   Hello knochi,
   unfortunately, there is no perfect solution for this issue, at least using only the tools provided by Feed Informer.

   If you want your blog feed to work nice with Feed Informer (and various feed readers, for that matter), you should consider editing post excerpts accordingly. It means you're going to need to 1) limit excerpt's size using <!--more-> tag (I assume you are using WordPress blogging platform, http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/); 2) provide ONLY ONE image per excerpt and format this image using CSS rules applied to the page where your Feed informer widget is embedded.

   I hope this helps.
