Use the form below to upload images or other files. To view or search previously uploaded images, see the list of uploaded files. Uploads are logged in the upload log and deletions are logged in the deletion log.
Guidelines
- Please review SmashWiki:Images before uploading any files.
- Indicate the location of the image, such as the website you took the image from.
- If possible, the image's license. All screenshots and artwork from the Super Smash Bros. series are copyrighted by Nintendo, making them being used under fair use.
- Please do not upload images with watermarks or logos.
- If you are uploading a new version of an image, do not assume the upload failed if you do not see an immediate change. Changes to existing images can take time to propogate, and your browser will often assume that images do not change and so does not bother checking them. Make sure to do a hard refresh of the image page (by holding Ctrl or ⌘ while pressing the refresh button/key) and/or wait several minutes to allow the change to take effect.
- Remember to include categories in the image you're uploading. If you are unsure what categories should be added, consider taking a look at images similar to the one you're uploading. If the image is intended to go into your userspace, make sure to only include Category:User images.
Placing images in articles
To include the image in a page, use a link in the form [[File:Name.jpg]], [[File:Name.jpg|description of image]], or [[:File:Name.jpg]] for directly linking to the file. More information can be found at Help:Images.
