Alternatives to HTML table code when usingWP?

Im making a page using wordpress thats gonna be a huge list (probably 200+) of items. What I want is a small thumbnail picture on the left, and a text link to the right and centered by the picture.

I was tryin to use basic HTML <table> codes but its not quite working, I can only get the text to be aligned with the bottom of the picture. Also its been a long time since Ive used basic html but it seems likes its a bit "outdated" I want this page to load as fast as possible, what are my options here?

Try making the product listings posts and post them to a category, you should be able to get a image to the left and text to the right...

You may need to hack a little bit of .PHP but it shouldn't be too difficult.

I like the plugin "Easy Columns". After it is installed you get a button in the visual editor - it allows you to create different types of multiple columns (1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/3, 2/3).
For separating a page in two columns and writing in the first column the code it would generate looks like this:
[wpcol_1half id="" class="" style=""]Half Column Text Here[/wpcol_1half]

Thanks ill give it a try. By looking at it though it looks like it will be hard to align everything in the left column with the content on the right side.

I tried easy columns, didnt like it and its not working for me. any other suggestions?

Try learning CSS with HTML and use divs with float and text-align attibutes, or spans.
