This article is all about using images on Animal Crossing Wiki. It will teach you how to upload images, and how to format them for placement in various articles. If you'd like to know which articles need images, see.

Uploading Images

Uploading images to Animal Crossing Wiki is simple.

  1. Click the "Upload file" button in the toolbox at the bottom of the left navigation bar, or click <a href="/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Upload" title="Special:Upload">here</a>.
  2. Click the "Browse" button and find the image file on your computer.
  3. Type a file name into the destination filename box. This name will be used to put your picture in an article, so don't forget it. It should be something simple and easy to understand, such as "TomNook.jpg" or "BusStop.png". Image extensions should be kept to all lowercase letters.
  4. Type a quick summary of what the image is.
  5. Click the upload button.

When you upload a new version of an existing image, the change may take a few minutes to take place.

Using Images

Using uploaded images on a page is simple. First, start editing the page you want to add the image to. Find a good spot to place the image and use the following code to insert it. [[File:Image.png]]

Replace 'Image.png' with the name of the file you uploaded.

Formatting Images

Information on formatting images will be added as soon as possible.

Image Types

At Animal Crossing Wiki, we accept png (.png), gif (.gif), and jpeg (.jpg/.jpeg) images.

Requesting an Image

If you've written an article but do not have an image to accompany it, you may add it to the list of articles that need pictures. Simply place this code at the very top of your article. A notice will be displayed and it will be added to the picture wanted category</a>.

{{Picture Wanted}}
