Image resizing
To force images to be a certain size is certainly standard form. Even on WP:PIC this is done:





Before you revert my picture size again, please see today's featured article (or any for that matter). In all articles editors have the choice of setting pictures whatever size is most appropriate for the article. Please provide an explanation if you wish to change it again. - Oreo Priest  05:49, 8 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I just followed Manual of Style, which directs: "Specifying the size of a thumb image is not recommended: without specifying a size the width will be what readers have specified in their user preferences, with a default of 180px (which applies for most readers)." and "Bear in mind that some users need to configure their systems to display large text. Forced large thumbnails can leave little width for text, making reading difficult." I admit to remain the size of the map picture same, but if you want to make other pics larger, please change your own size preferences in Files on your Special:Preferences page.--Anb racsh 11:09, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Lead images
Lead images, such as in Roman brick, are generally one of the exceptions to the rule about default thumbnails, see WP:MOS, for it and other exceptions. IvoShandor 21:10, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
