Side-by-side.

I want to the following on a slide: have a figure on the right side and a
bullet point on the left side.

  Then you want to use a tabular environment:

    \NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}

    \documentclass{prosper}

    \begin{document}

    \begin{slide}{Results}

      \begin{tabular}{cc}

	\begin{minipage}[c]{0.4\linewidth}
	  \begin{itemize}
	  \item The curves all coincide when plotted as a function of temporal
	  frequency--confirms strobe-in-head theory.
	  \end{itemize}
	\end{minipage}

      & 

	\begin{minipage}[c]{0.4\linewidth}
  	  My lovely picture.
	\end{minipage}

      \end{tabular}

    \end{slide}

    \end{document}

  You can probably replace the minipages with p{wd} options in the column spec;
  see Section C.9.2 of Lamport's latex book.
