how do you make a paragaph go beside the image starting at the top, not the bottom... like at http://charisma.surreal-dreams.net/merch.html... i dont want it like that. But starting at the top and then the paragraph will be side the image... Thanks

<img src="blah.gif" align="left">Put your text here.

I think that starts at the top of the image :lol:

no, that'll put it at the bottom. Silly lissa.

Just go with a simple table.

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<img src="whater.jpg">
</td>
<td valign="top">
text blahblah
</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table>
<tr>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
</tr>
</table>

Setting widths for the td cells also helps ;) If you want to add more rows, don't add another table, just add another row before the table tag:

<tr>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
<td valign="top">image</td>
<td valign="top">text</td>
</tr>
