In my situation, I had a 150x150px image and two or three lines of text underneath it.
To solve this situation I went into ~/modules/ja_newslight/ja-newslight.css and found the section .ja-newscontent img. This is where the css information pertaining to images depicted in the module are controlled. I added three lines:
width: 150px;
height:150px;
float: left;
The float tag is the key, causing the text to indent left widthxheight pixels.
Not being a programmer and having absolutely NO background in CSS it took some time to find the spot that needed editing, and more time googling a solution, but at least there was a happy ending! 🙂 I hope this helps.
