An image is like a very huge "H", it sits on the current line. So
you will have to move it down. In LaTeX I would use
\raisebox{-0.5\height}{image}, in plain you could store the image in
a box and then use \lower0.5\ht\test\box\test.
Something like $\vcenter{\hbox{image}}\hbox{text}$ could work too.
