 * Right now I’m using the penultimate version of WP. A graphic is spilling over
   beneath the right-side link panel. In an earlier experience, a graphic was squeezed
   horizontally to fit the hard-defined frame or level.
 * Both effects are…interesting; but neither is very effective. Can helpful WP folks
   save me trouble by telling me the optimal width for an embedded graphic? Wait!
   Depends on the template, I suppose.
 * No I don’t remember which theme I’m using. My fault, of course. But I don’t recall
   the documentation for the theme having defined either the issue of whether graphics
   would be resized (or how) or the optimal width of frames/levels. I think that
   info would be helpful. Yes, I know I can load the template into my web-authoring
   software of choice and check the parameters.
 * Thing is, though, while I could load the template and check the parameters, and
   could even modify the template, that’s not why I use WordPress. I use WordPress
   because I want to focus on content while leaving the programming to others. I
   think that for beginners to figure-out this stuff would be difficult or even 
   impossible, while for pros to provide the crucial documentation would be easy.
 * Point? Nerds, please! Take a deep breath, roll your eyes, but provide training
   wheels in your documentation. 🙂

 * _No I don’t remember which theme I’m using._
    admin > Presentation and **read**
   which is your active theme. I hope you can read, since you are content-focused
   🙂
 * _whether graphics would be resized (or how) _
    Nothing can resize the graphics
   for you. YOU should do it in an image editor, before uploading. Take a good look
   at your content area and don’t post images that obviously are wider.
 * _to provide the crucial documentation_
    Here is the “crucial” documentation: 
   Do **not** post pictures that are wider than your content area. Period.
