dress up an image
There are lots of ways to style an image. You can adjust its size, position it on the page, give it a border, a caption, a background color, and more.
Here's a simple tool for dressing up an image, so it shares a layout similar to other images on the site. Paste this code into your wiki-text:
[[include image | img-source= | width= | img-style= | caption= | style= ]] |
web-address of an image, or substitute | flickr-ID= (optional) a dimension, like 300px or 20em (optional) style the image, turn it into a link (optional) flickr images are captioned automatically, unless specified here (optional) position the textbox (float:right, margin:0, etc) — Make sure there's no space after the closing double brackets. |
All you really need is to specify img-source or flickr-ID. The rest is optional. For instance, here's the code that lays out the image above, pulls the flickr title and credits the photographer:
[[include image | flickr-ID=4341731519 ]] |
