To get successive images to load beside each other on the same line you can either set each one to appear on the left and the previous image will bump the next to the side or you can merge the images outside Appropedia and import as 1 image.  Setting successive images as right, right, right will cause the images to appear one on top of the other and the setting left, center, right causes them to appear on seperate lines vertically.

In brief, the syntax for displaying an image is:

[[Image:{name}|{type}|{location}|{size}|{caption}]]

Only [[Image:{name}]] is required. Most images should use [[Image:{name}|thumb|Example image caption]]. The other details are optional and can be placed in any order.

Type
'thumb' / 'thumbnail' or 'frame'. Causes image to be displayed with specific formatting (see below).
Location
'right', 'left', 'center' or 'none'. Determines placement of the image on the page.
Size
{width}px (e.g. 50px), scales the image to the given width, keeping its aspect ratio.
Caption
Any element which cannot be identified as one of the above is assumed to be caption text.
