      Using tables to align things reminds me of the early days of the internet before css really was a thing

          DIVs for days. Just float it all left and don’t worry about flexbox. /s

        Outlook 2016 used css2, which was about 20 years out of date in 2016, but at least it was a standard, with documentation, and decently reasonable for the year it was agreed upon by the WWC. For Office 2019 they went backwards and switched Outlook to use the Word renderer. Anyone who has ever had to make an advanced email template for Outlook 2019 and later has a deep, burning hatred for Microsoft that exceeds even their hatred of IE.

      There’s a button that does what you want without much fuzz. You just have to actually lean how to use Word, like anything else.

        Of course there’s a button for that, what fools.

        Can you tell these fools what button that is and how to use it? Not for me obviously I know the exact button you’re talking about, but for the other fools you’re talking to.

          If you hover or click the picture a little anchor on the top left corner should pop up. Click it and some options should pop up that’ll let you select whether you want the picture to be in line with text, over the text, under the text etc. It’s been a while but I think you can right click the imagine, select format and one of the tabs on that windows should give you the same options.
