I have the text set to wrap around the img, my issue is with the fact that the text is pressed right against the side of the image. I understand border is deprecated but I thought it was still supposed to work. What is the best method to achieve a blank space around an image?

<td style="vertical-align: top; text-align: left" width="345"><font face="Arabic Typsetting" font size="-1"><IMG SRC="IMAGE.jpg" border="10" width="100" height="100" align="left">How is this...</td>

Hi Jesse,
after align="left you could add hspace="2" or hspace="2" ( horizontal or vertical) or try &nbsp after > I'm not sure if it matters where you put it but I would start with that:)

typo should be vspace="2" and hspace="2"

Have you tried a simple style pad?

<td style="vertical-align: top; text-align: left; padding: 5px;" width="345">

I always pad my images then add an outside border of 1 or 2px just as a design element.

I will often then float the whole thing to the left or right.
Normally this is done on the stylesheet with a class rather than inline.

Jesse,

What I would do is set a style for the image to have a small margin. You can set all margins with a single setting or set the four different margins independently.

Similar to what Linda showed:
<img style="margin:5px;" src= you fill in this>
or something like this:
<img style="margin-top:2px; margin-right:3px; margin-bottom:4px; margin-left:5px;" ...>

If you have a style section on your page or a separate file you can use the same codes.
