This is the {{Cmbox}} ([C]ategory [m]essage [box]) metatemplate.
It is used to build message box templates such as {{Category diffuse}} for category pages. It offers several different colours, uses default images if no image parameter is given, and it has some other features.
This template works almost exactly like {{Ambox}} and uses the same parameters.
