Is it possible to flow text around images in a post?

I’ve included an image via a link, but it’s placed on the left of the page and follow-on text doesn’t appear until below the image…so there’s a big blank hole to the right of the image. Looks naff!

Just wondered if there were any finer text/image controls.

If you use the image icon (#13 I believe, the little tree) you can set alignment and some horizontal space so the text doesn’t jam up against the picture. You can align it also via the columns widget, showing left, right, and centre alignment. Once you tweak that, it should flow.

There’s no way to get text on both sides of an image other than to put the whole thing in a table, as far as I know.
