This help page covers how to create an image gallery.

Gallery basics

Galleries are best used in situations where many images need to be displayed. Galleries are like thumbnails boxed together in a table.

By default, galleries have a fluid width. Do not create galleries with a fixed width on any page outside of your userspace.

The basic syntax for a gallery is as follows:

<gallery>
Image name.ext|Caption
</gallery>

Example

Source code

<gallery>
MarioMP8Artwork.png|[[Mario]]
Luigi Artwork - Mario Party 7.png|[[Luigi]]
NSMBDS Bowser Artwork.png|[[Bowser]]
</gallery>

Advanced options

In rare instances, it may be necessary to change the image widths, heights, and even background color in order to display them properly in a gallery.

This can be accomplished using the widths, heights, and class parameters, respectively.

The following background color classes are available: blackbg, graybg

Example

Source code

<gallery class="blackbg" widths="50" heights="50">
SM64 Asset Sprite CS Mario.png|Mario
SM64 Asset Sprite CS Coin.png|Yellow Coin
SM64 Asset Sprite CS Power Star.png|Power Star
</gallery>
