Wordpress Problems?

I used the fantastico script from my cPanel to install wordpress, since its much easier then downloading and installing which I am sure most of you bloggers do that, and I am trying to edit the code of my about me page for I can add a table, and I can't get it to work.. The "Code" section doesn't load it stays on the the regular typing page. I basically want text to be wrapped around a picture, if anybody has any tips on how else I can do that, I would appreciate it, Thanks.

Sincerly,
Randy
