Fine Point #12: Put text and graphics next to each other in Home Page If you have been working done the list of Fine Points, you will have noticed that we are trying to make your pages more readable and efficient. Another way to conserve space on your page is to put your graphics next to your text in a table, This technique can be particularly helpful with the use of photographs and other medium sized images. In stead of describing the image or continuing with your text below the image, you can simply run the text on either side. This compacts the page in stylish and uncluttered fashion. Examples: 1.
