Help:Image upload

Permission to upload images

Image uploads are granted only to established users. If you would like to add an image to an article, make requests at Conservapedia:Image upload requests.

Once you have been granted upload privileges, please follow these instructions:

1. Click "Upload File" in the lower-left corner of the page

2. Click "Browse"

3. Locate the file from your local computer that you want to upload, select it, and click "Open". We'll pretend we selected "Alexander.jpg"

4. Edit the "Destination filename" field with a name to give a title to the file and leave the .jpg, .jpeg, or .gif ending. Please use underscores in-between multiple words. For example, in my example upload, "Alexander.jpg", I would edit it to read "Alexander_the_Great.jpg

5. Fill out summary with a brief explanation of the file and source link or description if it is your original material.

6. Click "Upload File"

To place this image in a term follow these steps

1. Go to the page of the term you want to add an image to

2. Click "Edit this page"

3. Move the cursor to the location in the document that you want the image to appear.

4. Add a link to "Image:ImageName.jpg|thumb|200px|Interesting Caption", where "ImageName.jpg" is the file name of the picture you uploaded and "Interesting Caption" is a good description of the image. To see an example of the way this new format looks go to http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Caravel. The image of the Caravel on the right was done using this format. If you click the image it brings you to the full-size image page.

OR, ALTERNATIVELY:

4. Click the "Embedded image" button on the top of this screen

5. Change "Example.jpg" to read whatever your uploaded file was named. In my "Alexander_the_Great.jpg" for example, I would change "Example.jpg" to read Alexander_the_Great.jpg

EITHER WAY, THEN CLICK:

6. Click "Save Page"
