This graphic and line of text have no margin-left or margin-right applied at all, so they display normally. The browser gives them the normal left and right margins.



This graphic and line of text have a margin-left of 100 pixels.



This graphic and line of text have a margin-right of one inch. (I aligned the graphic right so you can see that it, too, gets a right margin.)
