 * I know this has been posted on before but all the posts I could find had broken
   links that linked to the solution. So let’s keep all of the solutions detailed
   in this post so we don’t have to repost? 🙂
 * If I missed a newer post then please point me to the post.
 * The issue:
    The float operator doesn’t work in NextGen. So I put [singlepic id
   =23 width=320 height=240 float=center] and it ignores it entirely.
 * I’ve seen suggestions at solutions that mentioned folder permissions, what folders
   and what permission settings are needed?
 * The issue seems to be independent of the theme in use.
 * To detail the issue the environment:
    I made the theme in Artisteer 2 and the
   site is hosted on Hostgator. [http://www.Rockrevolution.com](http://www.Rockrevolution.com)
   is the site, please let me know how to fix this.
 * Something interesting to note is I have another site I am working on (www.rockunc.
   org) that is on a2hosting.com and it works fine.
 * Even more detail:

 * OK this isn’t a fix (I just posted on the same issue). This is a workaround hack.
   go to the html view in your wordpress page/post, and enclose the instance code
   with a div tag which includes the float style you want in an attribute. Yeah,
   I know, it’s not elegant. I’ll be looking around for a new plugin, but it’ll 
   work.
    so:
 *     ```
       <div style="float:left;>your NextGEN gallery code here</div>
       ```
