I'm perplexed.

How do I format my text in the forum posts so that my text is side-by-side with my images instead of above or below them?

Example:

How do I get my text on either the left or right side of this image instead of lurking at the bottom left or right of the image?

Nevermind. I figured out how to do it.

You did figure it out?

You have to use HTML tags instead of the UBB tags and use the 'align' command.

An easy way to explain it is to just point you to one of Insaniak's threads where he did just this:

You can 'quote' his post to get a look at the HTML code he used and mimic it for your own images.

Wow, that's exactly how I figured it out. It was one of his tutorials (purity seals) that showed me that it could be done so I was wondering how. Then late last night I used the quote function to see how he was formatting. I already modified my last blog entry using the HTML tags that he used.
