Aligning images and text vertically inside div

Question

Is the only way of aligning images and text vertically within a div possible via absolute/relative positioning?

I need to do that, and I am trying to use as few classes/hacks as possible.

Is the only other way to do like display:table-cell; vertical-align:middle;?
