If necessary, you use a style attribute.

Like here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_meter Your markup is: [[Image:Digital ambient light meter.jpg|145px|thumb|right|A handheld digital ambient light meter, showing an f-stop of 5.6 for 24 frame/s 500 ISO filming]] I'm curious about your reasons for setting 145px, though. Is it because the original size is 145px and you don't want it to be enlarged? If so, wouldn't it be better to indicate this in some other way, e.g. a 'no-enlarge' class name? Or, are also insisiting that users always see it with a width of 145px? Even on a tiny cellphone screen? -h&kon Håkon Wium Lie CTO °þe®ª [email protected] http://people.opera.com/howcome _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
