Default Inserting Picture into Text Box with Wrapping

I am working with one of Microsoft's newsletter templates (Professional 2003
version). The newsletter's
columns are done as text boxes (that's the way the template is set up).

I want to insert a picture or two to go with the stories. But when I try to
do this, the picture gets "cut off" and there is no way to fix it. I can
click on the outline of the picture, but I only see the bottom quarter of it,
which is really strange. The "Picture - Layout" and "Order as" fields are
greyed
out no matter what I try -- so I can't adjust text wrapping or anything. I
am PULLING MY HAIR OUT trying to get this to work. It shouldn't be so hard!

Can anyone give me a work-around for this? I'm not very skilled at creating
templates from scratch. I have used software like this in the past
(FrameMaker, for example). But I'm not an expert on Word.

Would it be better to try to re-create the template without text boxes and
use columns or table cells instead?
