Hi, first: I'm pretty new to Mezzanine (though not to Django/Python), maybe I'm missing something basic here.
I'm trying to create a new blog article (or a page) and want to insert an image aligned on the left side of the page. Any time I'm saving the article all style information is lost:
After editing, aligning (no matter if with mouse right-click or via image menu): <img style="float: left;" src="/static/media/uploads/screenshots/arte_mediathek_screenshot.png" alt="" width="250" height="191" />
After saving, re-opening editor: <img src="/static/media/uploads/screenshots/arte_mediathek_screenshot.png" alt="" width="250" height="191" />

Hi Ken, thanks a lot, that does the trick. I was just stumbling over this setting as well, but I didn't know about the possibility to change it in the admin and tried editing the settings.py file, which didn't work.
A warning would be nice (don't know if you are contributor to Mezzanine?), maybe directly below the editor window, that at a certain richtext-filter-level, some (basic) features of the editor don't work. That is something someone doesn't expect at all with a fresh installation.
Another warning being nice as well would be something like "Flashplayer required", if you are on a browser with Flash not working and trying to upload a picture, I also searched my head of with that before knowing what was going on! :-)
Anyway: beside the start still being a bit rough: Mezzanine's looking really promising, looking forward to work more intensely with it!
Greetings Holger

Writing to this space is how I started contributing to Mezzanine, so don't
sell your questions short! Anyone can fork the project at
https://github.com/stephenmcd/mezzanine, make changes, and request that
they be pulled in. Contributions, especially to the documentation, are
always welcome. The fresh perspective you can bring to the project is
greatly appreciated.
Viele Grüße,
Ken
