That would be a possibility. I thought, it would be possible to 
resize them via – say – <img src: Filename.png size:optional> (that 
would be pseudo HTML, though I am not sure, how this has to look 
like in wiki syntax or if it is possible) ... ;) The source code of 
the site has [[File:FailingCheks.png|frame|border|none|alt=...]] in 
it. For what reason is the "none" there? Anything to use for 
something special?

Would it not be better to write "As you can see, this search field 
is pretty limited. You can find Grep commands explained [[Name of 
second guide]], if you are using Linux." ;? Then you can shorten the 
description and you do not need any further paragraph, link 
collection or the like on this page ... ;)

O.K. I will have a look at it tomorrow :)
Have a nice evening

Your responsibility as a parent is not as great as you might 
imagine. You need not supply the world with the next conqueror of 
disease or major motion picture star. If your child simply grows up 
to be someone who does not use the word "collectible" as a noun, you 
can consider yourself an unqualified success.
