Images in your content area.

If i have an image aligned to the left in the middle of an article, how can i add padding to that image so that the text isn't right alongside of it?

Nos.

vspace="10" hspace="10"

Or use CSS to add some margins around it.

I would use a float? I don't know if that is right but in the CSS file I would then put padding around it.
