Template:External image

From Free Running Wiki

Use this to display an image hosted on any other site in an article.

How to use

At the moment it will display it in the article to the right of where you put the code. For example:

{{ External image | http://www.example.org/image.jpg }}

Or, with the optional caption attribute:

{{ External image | http://www.example.org/image.jpg | caption = My image }}

Guidance

Use a picture to add some colour to an article. Currently this does nothing to resize images, so try not to embed anything wider than around 300pixels, or it will make the rest of the article quite compressed. Sites like ImageShack offer the option to resize an image.
