spacing images without using too many divs

hi. im new to css and in my zeal to learn as much of it as possible ran across an article forewarning users against the dangers of using too many divs. currently i'm doing a row of images that need to be spaced out horizontally, so that each adjacent image is roughly 5 pixels apart.

<div style="float: left; width: 1300px; margin-right: 5px;">
<img src="jimmyv.jpg">
<img src="katiekimmie.jpg">
<img src="monstrosity1.jpg">
<img src="squirks.jpg">
</div>

is it possible to space out each image with some tags i dont know about, should i create a table (also warned about), or should i create an individual div for each one.

many thanks in advance.
