As many images and captions as desired may be specified, with an option to set a slideshow mode to cycle through all images, in the following format:

{{Portal image banner 
| first image  | first caption
| second image | second caption

Full set of parameters:

{{Portal image banner

}}

|1=, |3=, |5=, ... (or equivalent positional parameters)

File name. The "File:" prefix is optional.

|2=, |4=, |6=, ... (or equivalent positional parameters)

Caption for the file.

|maxheight=

Specifies the maximum height for the container of the image, using pixels (e.g. 300px). It is recommend that the overflow parameter be defined when this parameter is used.

|overflow=

Only needed when maximum height is declared. The parameter defines the behavior of the image when it becomes bigger than max-height. This parameter corresponds to the css overflow property. The following options are available :

• scroll - The rest of the image becomes visible when the picture is scrolled downwards
• Hidden - Hides the rest of the image
• auto - Displays it anyway.
• inherit - The overflow property acquires the value of its parent container.

|link=

specifies the |link= parameter for the files.

|croptop=

Allows you to crop the image from the top. It should only be a numerical value which represents the percentage of the image to be cropped.

|mode=

When set to slideshow, creates a user selectable slideshow to cycle through all available panorama images.
