Re: Image request
What is it about image uploading that you're having a problem with? - Brandon Rhea  (talk) 19:09, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

To be honest I'm not entirely sure what I've done wrong. I've tried to follow the steps on Darthpedia but I just can't do it. I think it might have something to do with where to send the image and possibly the sourcing. How can you tell if a source is an original source or not? But I can't even get the image in the first place and I must say I'm getting very annoyed about it. Why can't you just paste an image onto this site? That would be a hundred times easier.--Powerstaark (Talk) 19:15, November 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * Paste as in hotlink? Most people who host images don't appreciate hotlinking, and even then you wouldn't be able to resize the image. Can you take me through step by step how you've tried to upload an image? It'll help me to help you. As for the image you requested, I'd rather not upload that. While using that image could be considered fair use, I don't like uploading other people's work without their express permission. - Brandon Rhea Alliance Starbird.svg (talk) 19:17, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I've got the first three steps okay, I think. Getting to the upload page is easy, and they provide you with a summary. So far so good.

After that I put www.hennesseyproject.com/starwars/Twi%27lek_jpg in the source filename box. When I click off the source filename box it gives me Twi%27lek_jpg in the destination filename box.

I put www.hennesseyproject.com/starwars/ in the source part of the summary box and then I put fairuse in the licencing part of the summary box.

Then in the licencing box underneath I put in Copyrighted, fair use.

Then I pressed the browse button and nothing happened.

Out of watch this file and ignore any warnings I chose Watch this file.

Then I pressed the upload file button and again nothing happened.--Powerstaark (Talk) 19:37, November 29, 2009 (UTC)
