[edit] Re:Images

On a first note, always remember to sign your name on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~).

Anyway, you work with images in many ways on Wikipedia. First, the basic usage is [[Image:Example.jpg]]. This usage isn't usually used because most images are large, and just using this code would produce the full size image on a page (which is just about never acceptable). The common usage is [[Image:Example.jpg|thumb|right]], which means that the image is displayed as a thumbnail, and is aligned on the right. Images are usually aligned on the right unless there are multiple images. The next usage is [[Image:Example.jpg|right|300px]] which means the image is aligned right and is 300 pixels in size. These three usages are common, although there are many, many more. You can see them all at WP:EIS. If there's any more help you need, just tell me. Otherwise, what's next?

[edit] Images

Acutally, the image comes from pictures either stored on Wikipedia, or on Wikimedia Commons. Content on Wikipedia is usually under Fair Use, meaning it is copyrighted and is used solely in Wikipedia to depict something. Read more about that at Wikipedia:Image policy. Basically, you can upload images to Wikipedia using Special:Upload, as long as it meets the guidelines on those pages. Like I said, ALL images used on Wikipedia have to be stored on Wikipedia servers or Wikimedia Commons. Does that help? What's next? Alex43223 ^{T | C | E} 01:03, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
