User blog:Penguin-Pal/Image uplaods help

Hello everyone,

Today i created this project page, which is about uploading images.

Most of you upload images everyday, so this page is mostly for new users, however, it gathers informaion from a variety of pages and help pages, so it's a great way for available info.

The goals of this page:
 * Encourage users to use the PNG format- which does not compress the image and reduce its quality.
 * Gather a very basic about image uploading.
 * Encourage adding licensing and attribution, which hasn't been taking place in the wiki very much in the last 2 years.
 * Make file search easier.

The main idea is to make more user attributing their images and add licensing. Licensing should be added for every single image, however it isnt, and it's highly important to add the source of the images/ screenshots, especially as we mostly add images with copyrighted content of clubpenguin.com- even images of your penguins are copyrighted of CP. Of course, you can add the licensing as well, however, it's highly important to add the  licensing for p screenshots and files, as they are bassically pure CP content.

Another issue is that some images have names like AscIi345a.JPEG or CP1.png. It shouldn't really be a problem, but searching for these files when someone needs them can mostly be a serious headache.

Also, i don't want it to look as if licensing and these stuff spoil all the fun from editing ;) so if you have any comments about the page, please leave them in the page's talk page or down here at the comments.

Thank you for reading, have a happy editing (and chatting :P) and waddle on!
