Consider that we do not know the screen size of the user. Having an image sized to half the width of the white column would maybe work on your desktop, but not on someones much smaller phone screen.

I forgot to mention that the wiki of course scales them down and I spent quite a lot of time on compressing the images as much as possible. So don’t worry about that.

None of the images have any. But in the example there was one:

  {{image.png|This is a caption}}

Try it :)
