Could someone please tell me, how you position your paragraphs and text?
I can't figure it out.

position it in what way?
do you have a webpage in the works that we can look at and see how to adjust your current coding?

That's it. I want to put a paragraph under the picture.

1. you seem to be using css positioning, so just go with the flow and use the same type of system for your paragraph too.

2. your coding needed to be fixed up a bit...

^^ with the red part, adjust the 100 numbers to make the div box appear in the right spot and have the right dimensions you want.
compare the above coding to your current coding to see the differences and learn from them.
