Template:MerchGallery2

Template Guide
This template is designed as an upgrade of Template:TCGMerchGallery (and Template:MerchGallery). It allows up to 24 items (rather than 12), captions are now fully optional, and it also allows the inclusion of optional headings between each row. It's also fully backwards compatible, so any pre-existing use of the old templates only need {{TCGMerchGallery| or {{MerchGallery| changed to {{MerchGallery2| to work with the new template.
