Try this:

<div style="width: XXpx; margin: 1% auto;">
<img style="width: XXpx; height: YYpx; border: 0;" src="URL_to_Image1" title="Mouseover Description" alt="Text Description"><img style="width: XXpx; height: YYpx; border: 0;" src="URL_to_Image2" title="Mouseover Description" alt="Text Description"><img style="width: XXpx; height: YYpx; border: 0;" src="URL_to_Image3" title="Mouseover Description" alt="Text Description"> </div>

Set the width: XXpx to the width that all three images will need. Div height should adjust automatically, but you can add height: YYpx; to the div styling and set it to the highest image.

The margin: 1% auto; sets the div container with a top/bottom margin of 1% and centers it in whatever container the div itself is.

If you still have problems with images not side by side, make sure div width is wide enough for all images and/or set inside all the image tags' styling:

float: left;

@HTMLsucker:

Not sure about easier as I have no idea what you don't understand about the code given.
