- In most cases, an image for use on the wiki should be a PNG uploaded via the Upload file page.
- Images should be optimized for the web and their size should not exceed 100 kilobytes.
- Images' dimensions should be approximately the same size as on the official site and never exceed 600 pixels in width.
- JPEG format is generally only desirable for "live action" pictures. (Puppet Stuff integrated into Flash is still Flash)
- GIF formats are only desirable in the rare case of an animated GIF picture.
- BMP formats are never desirable.
- When uploading the file, be sure to give it a meaningful name which describes its content and more importantly, its use on the Wiki, as in this example:
- "homestar_with_a_hat.png" is not meaningful. "dangeresque_3_screenshot.png" is more meaningful.
