Editing Help:Using Files

[[Category:WikiHelp]]
To add a picture to page, you will have to  [[:Special:Upload|upload]] a image file first, or find an existing picture you are looking for. Then you can use the file link to add the image to your page, as a thumbnail or a full picture, depending on how you make the image link.

'''Please use Thumbnails''' when you want to add pictures related to the topic of each page, a big borderless picture is usually only for explanatory purposes.

==Thumbnails==
Thumbnails are for adding pictures relating to the page. 
*'''Thumbnail examples:'''
#<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|left|Description]]</nowiki> -''thumbnail will be on the '''left side'''''
#<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|center|Description]]</nowiki> -''thumbnail will be in the '''center'''''
#<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|Description]]</nowiki> -''thumbnail will be on the '''right side'''''
#<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|100px|center|Description]]</nowiki> -''thumbnail will be '''100px wide in the center'''''


*Thumbnails are on the ''right side'' by default.
*'''Text wraps around thumbnails''', that includes Headings.Unless the image is center.
*Biggest thumbnail by default is 220px
*The format of the link should always be <nowiki>[[</nowiki>'''File'''|'''Commands'''<nowiki>]]</nowiki>. So as long as the Command is in there, the order of them doesn't matter, ''center/thumb/100px''
*To place a thumbnail on the left without text wrapping, use ''none'' instead of ''left'' (example:<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|none|Description]]</nowiki>)

[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|left|ThumbExample '''Left''']]
[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|ThumbExample '''Right''']]
[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|center|ThumbExample '''Center''']]
[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|thumb|100px|center|ThumbExample '''Center 100px''']]

==Framed==
[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|frame||Framed, displays picture in native size]] '''Framed''' is like a mix between plain picture and thumbnail. 
*It displays the image in native size, with a border and description same as the thumbnails, but it does not have the resize button next to the description.
*Framed picture is on the ''right'' by default, and text wraps around.
**<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png|</nowiki>'''frame'''<nowiki>|Description]]</nowiki> -''will display picture native size, similar to plain picture, just framed''

==Plain Picture==
Plain pictures are only for explanatory purposes, as part of the text (not just referring to the topic, but specific parts of the page)

*Plain picture examples:
**<nowiki>[[File:Krafties Crafting.png]]</nowiki> -''will be on the left side, no text wrap'' 
*Plain images are on the ''left side'' by default.
*Plain pictures display no caption/description.
*Plain pictures are native size
[[File:Krafties Crafting.png]] *Text does not wrap by default. Plain pictures are in a line (so one line of text can be next to it)

==Uploading==
When you '''[[:Special:Upload|upload file]]''', you can find them again on the [[Special:ListFiles|List of Files uploaded]]. 
*If you have to update a picture, find the original file and upload from there.
*If you have a new picture, use the Toolbox link '''Upload file''' 
{{clear}}
