Upload file

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki. Use the form below to upload new files; to view or search previously uploaded images go to the list of uploaded files. Uploads and deletions are also logged in the Wookieepedia log.

All uploads must comply with Wookieepedia's image use policy.

Note: Your file will be deleted unless you provide the following information about your upload:

The source of the file: This means the specific name (and preferably page number or time code) of the medium or the web address where the image was found. Wookieepedia does not allow non-canon images to be used in the main namespace. An image copyright tag, either selected from the drop-down list below or included in the upload summary, A thorough description of the content.

Do not upload content with false descriptions, sources, or copyright tags. The image will be deleted and you will be blocked.

Unused images are deleted weekly. For free image hosting, try ImageShack, PhotoBucket, or a similar provider. Abuse of Wookieepedia's upload function for personal use will result in a temporary or permanent block per our blocking policy.

Before uploading images for your personal page, refer to the user image policy. Please remember that your user page is not your primary contribution to this wiki, and Wookieepedia is not a free host or webpage provider. Do not upload images found on an image search engine such as Google Images. They will be deleted.

Do not upload images found on any website other than an officially licensed Star Wars site for any purpose other than your user page. They will be deleted.

Do not upload images from the Hyperspace fan club. They will be deleted.

Do not upload any file which is simply a resized and not otherwise altered version of an image that already exists on Wookieepedia. They will be deleted. For help resizing images on a Wookieepedia page, refer to the FAQ or ask an administrator for assistance. Please choose a descriptive title for the image before uploading it, since images cannot be moved or renamed in the same manner as regular pages.

To include the image in a page, use a link in the form, or [[Media:file.ogg]] for directly linking to the file.

Please use the correct format for images.

Film screenshots, game screenshots, colored artwork, photos and other images with "natural" colors and smooth color transitions should be uploaded in the JPEG format. By the very nature of Wookieepedia, such images are predominant. Logos, program window screenshots and other images with relatively few colors, but sharp color transitions should be uploaded in the PNG format. Optionally, PNG/JPEG images created by the uploader can be complemented by an XCF (GIMP native format) or SVG (Inkscape native format and Web standard) source, for vector and multilayered raster graphics respectively. They should not be included in articles, merely uploaded for reference. If you upload a JPEG or PNG graphic that was downloaded verbatim from the Web or underwent minimal modifications (like cropping), please do not resave them in another format; if you edited them, save them in the same format you acquired them in. In particular, resaving JPEG images as PNGs is completely pointless, as it does not remove compression artifacts and merely increases image size.

Please do not use GIFs. Images with 256 colors or less should be saved as PNG files. And please do not upload animated images.

Copy and paste the following code and fill in the correct information to properly source your image.
