Memory Gamma:Policies and Guidelines/Images

Images are one of the only things that you have to be logged in to do. Before uploading an image, always check its file size. Images should be of good quality yet never overly huge (50-150kb is acceptable). This saves bandwidth and temporary file space on users' computers.

Featuring an image on a page: Use to generate a thumbnail (with caption) of the image, or include it in a sidebar (omitting "thumb"). Instructions for using images in sidebars can be found on the template page for each specific sidebar.

Using the MG logo: creates the "thumbnail" seen to the right.
 * Example

Categorize images by including Category:Images or in the description field. This should be done when uploading, if possible. Check Category:Images before uploading to see if an appropriate sub-category exists.


 * To upload an image, see Special:Upload.
