I don't mean to dampen your enthusiasm but seeing as how you're uploading images, I feel I should point you to the Style Guide, which details how the filename should be written, especially if you wish them to be used in the wiki. And if you can, upload in png format.--Lithium31337 03:47, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Damn... Good thing i kept the pics, easy enough to change them to png. I was hoping they could be used for the wiki but i wasnt aware of the criteria. What else do i have to do beside change the format? I'm only putting updated pics of weapons and shields from the 3D model view in JPEG format and their names.--Loneblade 06:12, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

The templates used in the wiki automatically set up links to the appropriate file, as per the Style Guide, so that anyone can then upload the right image and it can be used right away(or at least as fast as the wiki bothers to update :P). An easy way to update files is to go to that page, click on the image, and find the link that says "upload a new version of this file"(and be prepared to wait, as it can take days to reflect an update). As already said, png is preferred due to its lossless-ness, other than those two things all you should do is tag it appropriately.

Though I'm personally waiting on the results of this[1] thread to see if a template update may occur before updating any images--Lithium31337 06:19, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Ths I managed to figure it out and upload it correctly. Switched the pics to png format and used the correct templates like you said. As soon as I have some more free time on my hands I'll upload more pics of 3D model weapons and armor.--Loneblade 06:54, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Ths for letting me know, I'll be sure to keep an eye out for any template changes.--Loneblade 07:01, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

NP, though in the interest of saving you time, make sure I didn't already upload a new image of something already :P There's only a few stragglers left. If you do get some armor/helmets though feel free to get a second image from the reverse angle and upload it as "Item_Name-Equipped 2" and tag it properly as either {{helmet image}} or {{armor image}}.--Lithium31337 07:49, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Lol, yeah I see you've been busy, pratically every 3d model is already uploaded. I'll upload the reverse angles of some armor pics as soon as I can.--Loneblade 20:15, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
