Adding pictures and text vertically down the page is not a problem, but if you want your text to wrap around one or more pictures, then you need to add special codes to the pictures.

For more information, see Working With Images

You need to put the code in for the picture first, then all your text.

The picture will align to the left by default.

This method is rather unpredictable, especially if you need the list of Contents (TOC) to show and/or captions underneath either or both of the pictures as this can cause problems with getting the line spacing correct for every viewer.

A more controlled layout can be achieved by using tables: Working With Tables

N.B. If the image has no "built in" border you need to use |thumb| not |frame| as you cannot cotrol the size of the image with |frame|. Unless you want a caption, you are better off making a frame on your image before uploading it.
