==What is the point of the res-width?==<br />
Big images take a long time to load and take up bandwidth. So please don't embed 8k high resolution images without setting a reasonable res-width, especially if you use a box that is smaller than 100%.<br /><br />
For instance if your box takes up 25% of the available space, then 1000px is definitely more than enough. And it will probably still look fine with less, even on 4k monitors.<br /><br />
Even for full width boxes, more than 3840px does not make much sense (as of 2019. Things might change in the future).<br />
<br />
==This is similar to [[Template:Portal image banner]]? ==<br />
Yes, but this...<br />
* ...does not use any Lua<br />
* ...allows you to set a resolution width<br />
* ...has a more consistent margin on top and left/right<br />
* ...does not offer image carousels<br />
* ...does not place any text below the image<br />
* ...does not crop the image<br />
<br />
Maybe at some point both can be merged.<br />
