Will produce this:
Note that the image has a thin black border (or should do; if you can't see it, your browser can't handle stylesheets properly). This is applied by default to make images look neater on the site.

Please make sure that you always include ALT text for the image, so that people reading the site with text-only browsers aren't adversely affected.
Positioning
If you want the image to "float" on the left or the right of the page, you can use styling: simply enclose your image tag in the following tags:
<div style="float:left; margin:10px"> your image here </div>
Obviously, replace "left" with "right" if need be. Use the margin setting to adjust how much blank space to surround the image.
