Help:Uploading media

This page is a guide to upload media files to SmashWiki.

1. Go to Special:Upload. It also appears at the toolbox to the left, as "Upload file".
2. Click the "browse" button, and select the image you want to upload.
3. In the "destination filename" box, write what you want the image to be named. Remember to write the valid filename extension.*
4. Write the summary in the big box. This will show up in the recent changes, and in the page. Here should be where you got it from and so on.
5. Check "watch this page" if you want to know when someone changes this page. Check "ignore any warnings" if you don't care about the warnings.
6. Choose a valid license.

*Valid filename extensions are .jpg or .jpeg for photographs, .png and .gif for computer art, and .gif for animation and transparency.
