It is easily adapted to use a left-adjusted picture. What is also possible is to wrap text around a centred picture, but that's more difficult. What I cannot see is how to wrap text round a non-centred pic, or even harder, something like: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx .---------. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx | | xxxxxxxx .------. xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx | | xxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx | | xxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxx `---------' xxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx `------' xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I have different macros for the first two cases, and for leaving a hole in the centre of a paragraph (I've just not got round to placing a picture in it yet).
