Try this:

CODE
<p style="align:left;">Place your text here. <img src="URL"></p>

Replace the text in bold with the text that you want to move to the left and replace URL with the url of your image.

^ "align" isn't a CSS property so that unfortunately won't even justify the text. i think he's asking about aligning the image though, not the text.

to do that, just put align="ALIGNMENT" in your <img> tags, where ALIGNMENT can be any of these:

absbottom
absmiddle
baseline
bottom
left
middle
right
texttop
top

if you want your text to wrap around a picture on the right, you'd use
CODE
your text <img src="URL" align="right" />

Whoops, I put it on the <p> tag instead of the <img> tag. My bad. Here's the corrected code:

CODE
<p>Place your text here. <img src="URL" align="right"></p>
