same page looks fine in Safari. What browser are you using and have you tested it with other browsers?

Yeah its appearing fine on chrome 5.0
but on firefox 5.0 ( XP) and firefox 7.01 ( Ubuntu 11.04 ) , the page appears as i have shown in the screenshot.
So any fix for this behavior ?

But have a look at this post , the images at the bottom are going into sidebar for both chrome and firefox !

so how big did you define your center area to be? (page width - size of sidebars)
what is the html you are using to insert the image?

page width : fixed : 990 px
sidebar size : same as default , didn't change anything.

I am using wordpress option add image -> from url ( image is uploaded to photobucket.com)
Does the theme automatically tries to fit the image in the content area or its manadatory for image size to not to exceed certain pixels.

please try this, temporally swap to twenty-eleven and see if the same issue occurs

I added max-width : 100% to the CSS of Style images In post.This apparently fixes other images not appearing at side of ad.
The images align themeselves to the content area now.

Try setting the width to be a fluid width, and then set the min / max to be the same number (990, or whatever you want it to be). I tried that with my site recently, and it appears to work without any noticeable bugs...
