==Purpose==
This template can be used to collect images or userboxes into a single column grouping easily.
This collects images or userboxes into a single column grouping easily.  This template is not just for userboxes; it is also an efficient way of creating a column of images to run along the side of a page.


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 {{tl|stack}}. This template will add pages in the [[WP:NS0|main namespace]] to [[:category:articles incorrectly using userbox templates]] if used there.
