This template can be used to collect images or userboxes into a single column grouping easily.
Please do not use this in articles: for historic reasons this template uses different rules for floating alongside other templates and this will lead to unpredictable results. If you need to stack objects in an article for some reason, use {{stack}}. This template will add pages in the main namespace to category:articles incorrectly using userbox templates if used there.
Usage
{{ userboxtop | toptext = | align = | left = | backgroundcolor = | bordercolor = | extra-css = | textcolor = }} {{userboxname1}} {{userboxname2}} {{userboxname3}} {{userboxname4}} {{...etc}}} {{userboxbottom}}
