[edit] Purpose

In the 2000-2005 seasons, we currently use this double-image form a lot. I just turned it into a template so we could fiddle with the appearance (borders, spacing, etc.). Jdorje 07:56, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Arlene satellite image and storm track.

We dont want to use thumbnails here, because there is one main caption that is provided for both images. I tried making it a gallery (as shown to the right) but I can't get this to work in the template (I think parameters don't work inside the gallery tag). Jdorje 18:56, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
