Many thanks!

Use a table There are others methods but with a table you'll have the two images aligned practically in any ereader. Use the following code:

1. In your .xhtml file:

  <div class="images">
    <table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" class="images">
      <tr>
        <td style="width: 50%"><img alt="Image" src="../Images/leopard.jpg" />This is a leopard</td>

        <td style="width: 50%"><img alt="Image" src="../Images/leopard.jpg" />This one too!</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
  </div>

Of course, your images will be different

2. In your .css stylesheet:

div.images {
    width: 80%;
    margin-bottom: 1.5em;
    margin-left: 10%;
    page-break-after: avoid;
}

table.images {
    padding-top: 1em;
    margin: 0 !important;
    text-align: center;
    text-indent: 0 !important;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-size: 0.8em; /* Change this if you want */
    font-family: serif;
}

table.images tr td img {
    width: 100%;
    height: auto;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

Here you have a screenshot of Sigil:



I also attach an epub file so you can understand better the things.

EDIT: You can style the table inside the .css stylesheet but don't erase cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" (you can change the values, no problem with that) inside the table tag because otherwise the table won't show centered in ADE.
