Ah; now that you can't do, and are unlikely ever to be able to. For
starters, resizing an image requires passing the file through a
converter and writing the result to the filesystem, so not actually
having the file locally would rule that one out. The layout options
are more possible - they're just an automated way of creating
appropriate <div>s etc. You could even just create the divs manually,
as people used to do before the "extended markup" was invented.
But why bother? Just enable the appropriate options in
LocalSettings.php, and use Special:Upload to put the image onto the
wiki, and take advantage of all the features the software has to
offer.
