radiomaru Wiki:Image Guidelines

Welcome to the Seconds Wiki's Image Guidelines.

Please refer to the Seconds Wiki: Guidelines for more information.

Introduction
 This page will answer many of your questions pertaining to articles on this wikia. If you cannot find your answer, please ask me on my Message Wall.

Format advice
We tend to use the .PNG format for images because .JPG images tend to be low quality and grainy when resized. Please try to upload images with the png file extension.

When deciding on what to name a picture, PLEASE use the following naming convention:

Name of Picture - Event from where it had been taken - lowercase description of image goes here.png

So for example:


 * Jane Doe Volume 1 Chapter 3 eating avocado cheeseburger.png
 * Bryan Lee O'Malley Comic-con Promo 2010 Interview.png

We like to try to keep this as consistent as possible.Try to name it as appropriately as possible. Do not use nonsensical/non-descriptive names for images.

Image information
When you upload an image on this wiki, please provide the necessary information on the file's page by creating different section, such as:


 * Summary: this is an optional field where one can provide information on the image and the meaning or purpose for it.
 * Source: this information is important and helpful, so specify where the file comes from. For example, the volume/chapter if a manga picture, the episode if an anime screenshot or the sites if you took it from internet.
 * Licensing: please provide the right license for each image.
 * Categorization: after you upload a file, add the categories by the button at the bottom; creating a section for it isn't necessary. If you don't know which category is right for the image, try to use other similar images as a guide.

Acceptable

 * Screenshots or panoramic images.
 * Fanart showing a single symbol used  with the consent  of the original maker, used where the show or a press release could not provide a decent enough image.
 * File extensions: .PNG, .GIF, .JPG This is standard requirement for the wikia and many file extension types (such as .BMP) are not uploadable.

Unacceptable

 * Fanart of any form - from fan color images to full character depictions, though there is one exception (see "Acceptable").
 * Very low quality images, such as blurry images in general.
 * Doctored images of any form.
 * Images unrelated to this wiki. We're not an image hosting site like Flickr, which exists for this purpose.
 * Watermarked images, these are claimed by an owner as their property and they may be offended if the image was taken without permission.
 * Note: No image taken from Youtube may be used.
 * Both porn and nudity.
