Would it be possible to add an option of using the normal body-text style for the caption? I wanted to use this template for a chemical formula, but <small> tags, which I used for optical-chirality symbols that are conventionally set in SMALL CAPS, had no effect, presumably because a small style was already in effect. —Odysseus1479 (talk) 23:26, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @Kelvinsong: and @Waldir:. I don't understand the purpose here.

What's the difference between

[[File:James Webb Space Telescope Mirror37.jpg|220px|This is a picture of the [[James Webb Space Telescope]].]]

and

{{plain image with caption|James Webb Space Telescope Mirror37.jpg|This is a picture of the [[James Webb Space Telescope]].|220|right|bottom|triangle|rgba(0,110,255,1)}}

except for the coloured triangle-arrow, and the lack/presence of borders? Please explain! Thanks. –Quiddity (talk) 19:58, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
