Preserve the original image size, and put a box around the image. Show any caption below the image. Float the image on the right unless overridden with the location attribute. Note: Any size options specified will be ignored and flagged as a 'bogus file option' by the Linter. frameless Automatically scale the image up or down.
The default width and height are currently 120px. Images displayed by the <Gallery>...</Gallery> tag do not obey user viewing preferences. The packed mode will automatically adjust image sizes to use available display space optimally. Every line specifies an image file. The File: prefix is unnecessary.
If your caption is longer than a few words, you may need to explicitly set the div width. Some browsers adjust the width of the div based on the width of the text, and if there is a large caption, the div may become too large. To solve this problem, simply set the width of the div to the width (in pixels) of the image, like so:
Media queries allow the page to use different CSS style rules based on characteristics of the device the site is being displayed on, e.g. width of the rendering surface (browser window width or physical display size). Responsive layouts automatically adjust and adapt to any device screen size, whether it is a desktop, a laptop, a tablet, or a ...
In the examples above, the size of the image is scaled based on each user's default image size, which can be changed at Special:Preferences. Setting image size in pixels, such as "250px", would override the user's preference and display the image as 250px wide for all users who view that image on that page.
An image's size is controlled by changing its width – after which software automatically adjusts height in proportion. (Most references to an image's "size" really mean its width.) Except with very good reason, a fixed width in pixels (e.g. 17px) should not be specified, because it ignores the user's base width setting.
If an article overall has so many images that they lengthen the page beyond the length of the text itself, you can use a gallery; or you can create a page or category combining all of them at Wikimedia Commons and use a relevant template ({}, {{Commons category}}, {{Commons-inline}} or {{Commons category-inline}}) to link to it instead, so that ...
Some users have small screens or need to configure their systems to display large text; "forced" large thumbnails can leave little width for text, making reading difficult. In addition, forcing a "larger" image size at say 260px will actually make it smaller for those with a larger size set as preference.
