I want to align my three images horizontally instead of vertically what is the easiest way to achieve this? example
Display the divs as inline-block
like so :
#christmas_promotion_boxes div {
display: inline-block;
}
Fiddle
You need the div's containing the images to be floated.
Add this section of code into your css:
#christmas_promotion_boxes > *{
float:left;
}

When I have inline elements I always put them in a ul and display the li's inline. This way you don't have to worry about floating anything and it is much more scalable.
<ul>
<li id="christmas_promo_1"><img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"></li>
<li id="christmas_promo_2"><img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"></li>
<li id="christmas_promo_3><img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"></li>
</ul>
ul{
width:5em
}
li{
display:inline;
list-style-type:none;
}
add this
#christmas_promotion_boxes div{
float: left;
}
Slightly different from @zazvorniki accepted answer:
<div class="christmas_promotion_boxes">
<img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"/>
<img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"/>
<img src="http://lilliemcferrin.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/vivid_flowers-wide.jpg" width="200" height="100"/>
</div>
.christmas_promotion_boxes {
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
display: inline-block;
}

Make sure the width
is larger the sum all of width of all the images.
