how to add text to a picture already in place

I used the search, got the answer 1 year old, but could not make the instructions work ... I can type text under pictures but the words get misplaced when the page is saved.  Please help ..... Battle Speakers Club .... President Dec Cluskey DTM

You can either put the picture and text in a single column (or cell) table layout or put it in a <div> element.  These allow you control the width independent from the page and center the text within that width you establish.  (vs the whole page)   The table approach will probably be simpler for you since tables have a more developed user interface in the rich text editor. 

Steve .... of course ... silly me ..... looks a treat .... find it a little tricky to adjust/delete/take off borders, on the tables ....more trial and error at the moment but with practice the 'modus operandi' will be perfected.

Many thanks ..... Dec [Cluskey]
