Basic code

This method is rather unpredictable, especially if you need the list of Contents (TOC) to show and/or captions underneath either or both of the pictures.


N.B. If the image has no "built in" border you need to use |thumb| not |frame| as you cannot cotrol the size of the image with |frame|.

This causes problems with getting the line spacing correct for every viewer.


See Adding Content to The Wiki ~ Images and Tables for explanation of codes for images.
