Thanks to Sean Effel and his wonderful video tutorial about View slideshow, I have added a quotation slideshow on the bottom of the left sidebar. Look! It is there! :)
It works very well for quotaions (using the CCK module to define the neew content type), and should work equally as well and easily for Images or any other content type that could be made up, or exists already on your site.
To ensure that a web site renders correctly in most browsers, at least those compliant with the W3C standard, you can easily verify the code on your site. This is a free service provided by W3C and can be found here.
You can then proudly display the "compliant logo" on your site.
There are competing imperatives in setting up a Drupal site:
Graphic design
Content
Functionality
Security
and others...
In general, it seems that people are either mixing them together or, are putting an emphasis on the design aspect. I guess that is the part that everyone feels (quite wrongly) an expert about.
Example of a blog entry with an image attached to it. This was achieved by changing the filter to allow the code for inserting an image to not be filtered out.

It seems to work satisfactorily to me.
This reference at Drupal.org is well worth reading if you are interested in getting a theme developed or a site built. It explains the very important differences between the two tasks.
A very common comment on support boards for Drupal is the mantra not to make changes (of a developmental nature) to the live site.
I disagree with this totally.
In the spirit of Drupal, I consider the live site the ultimate repository for both content and presentations layers. But, and here is the real proviso, I do use backups. And I can restore my site in little time from latest backup. That is restore, database, all other site info, and systems settings.
Also I use a, local to my computer, play site to try things out first (at a functional level at least).
