Looking closer at your example, I realize you obviously have the array package loaded.p{...}aligns the content toward the top,m{...}aligns the content toward the center, whileb{...}aligns it toward the bottom.

@Amy it's not as bad as it looks. You can just copy the code into your document and see if it works. After some time you will get used to Latex code more and more. I would start with the small things first by making tables in an -- for you -- acceptable format, without worrying too much about perfection, which can be done later.

One easy way to this would be to use the array package, specifying your column width with m{...}. For example:
begin{tabular}{ m{4cm} m{1cm} }
... & ... \end{tabular}
will give you a four centimeter-long column and a one centimeter-long column. In each cell, the contents will be vertically aligned to the center. Note, however, that the cell contents will be horizontally aligned left. If you also want to align all the cell contents toward the center in a horizontal sense, then you could do something like this:
begin{tabular}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} }
... & ... \end{tabular}
The point of arraybackslash is to return \ to its original meaning because the centering command alters this and could possibly give you a noalign error during compilation.
If you have several columns and do not want your source to look cluttered, you could define new columns before your tabular environment, for example:
newcolumntype{C}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} }
newcolumntype{D}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{1cm} }
begin{tabular}{ C D }
... & ... \end{tabular}
There is a lot of useful information on tables in the wiki LaTeX guide, if you want to explore this further.

Are you sure that an image inclusion will be EXATCLY vertically centered using your method above?

@xport: It might be relative to the first and last baselines of the cells, not the exact totalheight.
– Martin Scharrer♦

When using this method, people should be cautious NOT to mix other column types such asp. The height of a row AND vertical-alignment follows that of the cell with the maximum height in that row. It is fine if anmcolumn cell has the maximum height, but otherwise the vertical-align would not work.

Dec 27 '12 at 15:22
If you just want equally spaced columns and the whole table's width to be textwidth, can't do that with a general m{something}?

There is a command vcenter which vertically centers its content in horizontal mode. It can only be used in mathmode.
Here is an example with Plain XeTeX (compile with xetex yourfilename.tex)
{ offinterlineskip
deftrule{noalign{hrule}}
defhcenter#1{hfil#1hfil}
halign{vrule#&&hcenter{$vcenter{hbox{#}}$}vrulecrtrule
&Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet&XeTeXpicfile "test-pattern.jpg" &
TeX&$E=mc^2$&$displaystyle{a^2-b^2over c^2}$crtrule
&Etiam quam lacus&vrule width 4em height 5ex depth 2ex&eTeX &

}

If you just want to center the text because you are not happy with the default row height, you can put the following command before each tabular environment:
renewcommand{arraystretch}{number}
where number is the factor to multiply the default row height.

I just found this solution for a spacing Problem. When the spaceing is set at a big enough distance, the text is centered, or at least seems like.
Huge Text in Tabular touches table border
Here is my example:
usepackage{makecell}%To keep spacing of text in tables
setcellgapes{4pt}%parameter for the spacing
begin{table}[h]
makegapedcells
centering
resizebox{textwidth}{!}{%resizing the whole table

Putting a tabular in the cell of a tabular centers the content of the cell horizontally and vertically.
begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|}
hline
begin{tabular}{l}
text in cell 1
end{tabular} &
begin{tabular}{l}
first line of text in cell 2 \
second line of text in cell 2
end{tabular} &
begin{tabular}{l}
first line of text in cell 3 \
second line of text in cell 3 \
third line of text in cell 3 \
end{tabular}
\
hline
begin{tabular}{l}
first line of text in cell 4 \
second line of text in cell 4
end{tabular} &
begin{tabular}{l}
first line of text in cell 5 \
second line of text in cell 5 \
third line of text in cell 5 \
end{tabular} &
begin{tabular}{l}
first line of text in cell 6 \
second line of text in cell 6 \
end{tabular} \
hline
end{tabular}
gives:
so you can define a macro centered
newcommand{centered}[1]{begin{tabular}{l} #1 end{tabular}}
and use it like this:
begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|}
hline
centered{ text in cell 1 } &
centered{
first line of text in cell 2 \
second line of text in cell 2} &
centered{
first line of text in cell 3 \
second line of text in cell 3 \
third line of text in cell 3 \ } \
hline
centered{
first line of text in cell 4 \
second line of text in cell 4 } &
centered{
first line of text in cell 5 \
second line of text in cell 5 \
third line of text in cell 5 \ } &
centered{
first line of text in cell 6 \
second line of text in cell 6 \ } \
hline
end{tabular}

Your solution is working absolutely fine, but isn't there a simpler solution? Aligning contents vertically feels time like simpler than the proposed solution.

@xport: Your edits have nothing to do with Rafid's question. For his question, the widths of the columns just don't matter. I think it's not good to include stuff that's really unrelated.

This kind of answer shows that LaTeX is just plain bad at tables. It's great at many things, but doing anything with tables is an overcomplicated mess and a huge distraction from what I'm actually trying to do, every time. Gah.

One easy way to this would be to use the array package, specifying your column width with m{...}. For example:
begin{tabular}{ m{4cm} m{1cm} }
... & ... \end{tabular}
will give you a four centimeter-long column and a one centimeter-long column. In each cell, the contents will be vertically aligned to the center. Note, however, that the cell contents will be horizontally aligned left. If you also want to align all the cell contents toward the center in a horizontal sense, then you could do something like this:
begin{tabular}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} }
... & ... \end{tabular}
The point of arraybackslash is to return \ to its original meaning because the centering command alters this and could possibly give you a noalign error during compilation.
If you have several columns and do not want your source to look cluttered, you could define new columns before your tabular environment, for example:
newcolumntype{C}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{4cm} }
newcolumntype{D}{ >{centeringarraybackslash} m{1cm} }
begin{tabular}{ C D }
... & ... \end{tabular}
There is a lot of useful information on tables in the wiki LaTeX guide, if you want to explore this further.

When using this method, people should be cautious NOT to mix other column types such asp. The height of a row AND vertical-alignment follows that of the cell with the maximum height in that row. It is fine if anmcolumn cell has the maximum height, but otherwise the vertical-align would not work.

There is a command vcenter which vertically centers its content in horizontal mode. It can only be used in mathmode.
Here is an example with Plain XeTeX (compile with xetex yourfilename.tex)
{ offinterlineskip
deftrule{noalign{hrule}}
defhcenter#1{hfil#1hfil}
halign{vrule#&&hcenter{$vcenter{hbox{#}}$}vrulecrtrule
&Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet&XeTeXpicfile "test-pattern.jpg" &

&Etiam quam lacus&vrule width 4em height 5ex depth 2ex&eTeX &

If you just want to center the text because you are not happy with the default row height, you can put the following command before each tabular environment:
renewcommand{arraystretch}{number}
where number is the factor to multiply the default row height.

I just found this solution for a spacing Problem. When the spaceing is set at a big enough distance, the text is centered, or at least seems like.
Huge Text in Tabular touches table border
Here is my example:
usepackage{makecell}%To keep spacing of text in tables
setcellgapes{4pt}%parameter for the spacing
begin{table}[h]
makegapedcells
centering
resizebox{textwidth}{!}{%resizing the whole table

so you can define a macro centered

Looking closer at your example, I realize you obviously have the array package loaded.
p{...}aligns the content toward the top,m{...}aligns the content toward the center, whileb{...}aligns it toward the bottom.– Jimi Oke

@Jimi: the example works even without array. The
pspecifier is standard.– Stefan Kottwitz♦

Question, actually. How in the world would a person who knows nothing about code go about this? I'm drowning in information, here.

@Amy it's not as bad as it looks. You can just copy the code into your document and see if it works. After some time you will get used to Latex code more and more. I would start with the small things first by making tables in an -- for you -- acceptable format, without worrying too much about perfection, which can be done later.
