The only thing I don't like about addthis is that you have little control over where and how it shows up.
Ronnie ... if you're comfortable editing some template files, you can gain some control over the positioning of the AddThis graphic.

What you want to do is wind up with it enclosed in a div tag so you can apply a CSS class or ID to it. Once you have the AddThis code wrapped in a div, you can use CSS positioning, margin and padding to get it where you want.

You'd make the changes in your theme's index.php file. You'll have to get the opening div tag to appear right after the post content. Then the closing div tag is pretty easy. The other option is to edit the widget code in the AddThis plugin file to add the div code there.
