Text wrapping around an object

How do I make text in a text box wrap AROUND a picture in Powerpoint? It will do this in Word with the text wrapping icon (the little dog icon). Is this possible to do in Powerpoint as well? Thanks!

Sorry, not a feature in PowerPoint. You need to manually space out the text
to create the look of a word-wrap.

Hello,

As others have already indicated, PowerPoint does not have the specific
capability that you are looking for,

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
either provide support for wrapping text (around, within), or objects
inline with text, don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS,
please) to Microsoft at:

http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
