This template creates character boxes in variable sizes, for use on Characters and KM Characters, for example.
Usage
{{Characterbox
|float=
|width=
|height=
|background=
|border=
|image=
|imageborder=
|imagewidth=
|charactername=
|charactername-size=
|charactername-color=
|actorname=
|actorname-size=
|actorname-color=
|characterblurb=
|characterblurb-size=
|characterblurb-color=
|blurbhalign=
}}
All parameters have a default value, so if a certain parameter is unneeded, it can be omitted without damage (e.g. float).
| Parameter | What to put there | Default if omitted | 
|---|---|---|
| float | Either left or right.
 | 
None. If float isn't set, the box doesn't float. | 
| width | Width of the character box, in pixels, without "px". | 240px | 
| height | Height of the character box, any valid css unit. | If omitted, height is automatically determined | 
| background | The box's background color. Accepts any valid HTML color name or code.  Note: In fact, this accepts any valid CSS background statement – so a knowledgable person can use background images, too.  | 
#EEE | 
| border | Any valid CSS border statement, in the form of size style color.
  | 
None. If omitted, there is no border. | 
| image | Purely the name of the image to use, without "Image:" prefix. | None. If omitted, no image is displayed. | 
| imageborder | The border around the image. For input, see border. | None. If omitted, there is no border. | 
| imagewidth | The width of the image to display, in pixels, without "px". | Half of the box's width. | 
| charactername | Purely the name of the character, nothing else. If a page with that name exists, a link will be created automatically. | The text "character's name". | 
| charactername-size | The text size of the character name, in pixels, without "px". | One thirteenth of the box width. | 
| charactername-color | The text color of the character name; accepts any valid HTML color name or code. | Black. | 
| actorname | Purely the name of the actor, nothing else. If a page with that name exists, a link will be created automatically. | The text "Unknown". | 
| actorname-size | The text size of the actor name, in pixels, without "px". | One twenty-first of the box width. | 
| actorname-color | The text color of the actor name; accepts any valid HTML color name or code. | Black. | 
| characterblurb | Whatever you want to say about that character. | The text "character blurb missing". | 
| characterblurb-size | The text size of the character blurb, in pixels, without "px". | One twentieth of the box width. | 
| characterblurb-color | The text color of the character blurb; accepts any valid HTML color name or code. | Black. | 
| blurbhalign | Horizontal alignment of the blurb text, any one of center, left, right, justify.
 | 
Left. | 
Example
Daniel's box from Characters:
{{Characterbox
|width=240
|background=#f5faff
|border=2px solid MidnightBlue
|image=0167-DanielLaughing-Cropped.JPG
|imageborder=1px solid MidnightBlue
|imagewidth=120
|charactername-size=18
|charactername-color=black
|charactername=Daniel
|actorname-size=11
|actorname-color=black
|actorname=Yousef Abu-Taleb
|characterblurb-size=12
|characterblurb-color=black
|characterblurb=[[Bree]]'s loyal friend and budding filmmaker.
}}
The minimalist version:
{{Characterbox
|image=0167-DanielLaughing-Cropped.JPG
|charactername=Daniel
|actorname=Yousef Abu-Taleb
|characterblurb=[[Bree]]'s loyal friend and budding filmmaker.
}}
A micro-box:
{{Characterbox
|width=180
|border=1px solid MidnightBlue
|charactername=Daniel
|actorname=Yousef Abu-Taleb
|characterblurb=[[Bree]]'s loyal friend and budding filmmaker.
}}
