 * Hey guys, I want to do something with my posts, but I’m not quite sure how to
   express it. Okay, let me give it a try:
 * Always, with rare exceptions (say, 1%), whenever I start a posting I ALWAYS include
   an image before the post. I always align the post to the left (align=”left”) 
   and add in borders (hspace=”5″ vspace=”5″), and then add my post body after that.
 * Question: Is there anyway I can have the align and spacing AUTOMATICALLY inserted
   into every new post that I enter? Say, all I’d have to do is click on “add image”
   and the align left and border spacing would automatically be inserted into the
   image code?
 * Hmm, I’m not sure if that makes sense. I’m using the latest WordPress and using
   the Journalized theme.

 * All that styling should be done in the stylesheet.

 * Create a new quicktag, or perhaps edit the one for the img?
