A very handy tip. Blocking it right away!
BTW, the screenshot you’ve provided above is not that clear. Remove any alignments defined in the image code. The image is not that big and won’t break your design.
Ya Haris , i have updated that image now.
I still see the same problem. Remove the width and height from the end of the image code.
