The Naming
The name of an image should be the same or as close to the same as it is in game. Sometimes it might be advised to shorten long image names but make sure everybody can understand what the image is and try to avoid uploading multiple images for the same subject.
Wiki will automatically capitalize the first letter of images as well as replacing spaces with underscores. Please avoid using periods "." expect for the extension (.jpg)
Tips
- When uploading images there is no need to upload the whole screen-shot. Make sure you crop out the image before uploading.
- Save images as .jpg to save space.
- There is no need for images with huge resolution. Instead medium to good quality images are preferred.
- Try to avoid the red marker in images.
