:Sure I could help! First, we have to know if your picture is o the wiki or if you want to get it on the wiki, skip to the word "now". Otherwise, to get you picture on the wiki, look at the bottom of the sidebar. There is a box called "toolbox". It has helpful links. One of the links say "Upload file". Click that one. If you can't find it, [[Special:Upload|Here's a link]]. Click "browse", and find the area on your computer where the picture is. Once you find the file, double click it. Then, in the box named "Summary", type: <nowiki>{{C-nintendo}} (considering it's a Zelda picture) then {{FoundImage|Site URL|Site Name}}. You see the part that says "Site URL"? If you found it on a site that is not part of our collaboration (The part of the sidebar that says "the masterminds" are all the sites that are part of our collaboration) put a link to the site in that box, and the name of the site in the part that says "Site Name". So if it came from, say,</nowiki> [http://zelda.com Zelda.com], you would type <nowiki>{{FoundImage|http://www.zelda.com|Zelda.com}}</nowiki> (Do NOT forget the "http://"). If, however, the image came from one of the sites in out collaboration, you would type <nowiki>{{FoundImageZW|Site URL|Site Name}}</nowiki>. The same things for the "FoundImage" piece of code apply here, except the box that pops up would say that it is from a site in the Zelda Wiki.org collaboration. If, however, you made the image yourself, you would just type <nowiki>{{ImageSelf|The Sage of Cosmos}}</nowiki>. Now, for an example. If the image was from Zelda.com, you would type this:<br />
----
:<nowiki>{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImage|http://www.zelda.com|Zelda.com}}</nowiki>.<br />
----
:And you would see this: <br />
----
{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImage|http://www.zelda.com|Zelda.com}}
----
:If the image was from a site in the Zelda Wiki.org collaboration, you would type this, using Zelda Universe, one of the sites in our collaboration, as an example: <br />
----
:<nowiki>{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImageZW|http://www.zeldauniverse.net|Zelda Universe}}</nowiki>.<br />
----
:And you would see this: <br />
----
{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImageZW|http://www.zeldauniverse.net|Zelda Universe}}

The next thing to do is  click on the tab at the top of the page that says "edit". Or, you can click on [http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=Zelda_Wiki.org:Featured_Picture_Nomination&action=edit this]. Now, scroll down to the text that says "<nowiki>{{clear}}</nowiki>". Above that, but under the text saying "<nowiki>{{oppose}}</nowiki>", type out something looking like this: <br/>

No problem, just wanted to ive a little hi. If you ever need help or anything, I'm here. Some other good people that are helpful are Ando and Matt. User:Seablue254/sig 15:33, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Sure I could help! First, we have to know if your picture is o the wiki or if you want to get it on the wiki, skip to the word "now". Otherwise, to get you picture on the wiki, look at the bottom of the sidebar. There is a box called "toolbox". It has helpful links. One of the links say "Upload file". Click that one. If you can't find it, Here's a link. Click "browse", and find the area on your computer where the picture is. Once you find the file, double click it. Then, in the box named "Summary", type: {{C-nintendo}} (considering it's a Zelda picture) then {{FoundImage|Site URL|Site Name}}. You see the part that says "Site URL"? If you found it on a site that is not part of our collaboration (The part of the sidebar that says "the masterminds" are all the sites that are part of our collaboration) put a link to the site in that box, and the name of the site in the part that says "Site Name". So if it came from, say, Zelda.com, you would type {{FoundImage|http://www.zelda.com|Zelda.com}} (Do NOT forget the "http://"). If, however, the image came from one of the sites in out collaboration, you would type {{FoundImageZW|Site URL|Site Name}}. The same things for the "FoundImage" piece of code apply here, except the box that pops up would say that it is from a site in the Zelda Wiki.org collaboration. If, however, you made the image yourself, you would just type {{ImageSelf|The Sage of Cosmos}}. Now, for an example. If the image was from Zelda.com, you would type this:

{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImage|http://www.zelda.com|Zelda.com}}.

And you would see this:

Template:C-nintendo Template:FoundImage


If the image was from a site in the Zelda Wiki.org collaboration, you would type this, using Zelda Universe, one of the sites in our collaboration, as an example:

{{c-nintendo}} {{FoundImageZW|http://www.zeldauniverse.net|Zelda Universe}}.

And you would see this:

Template:C-nintendo Template:FoundImageZW


Lastly, if you made the image yourself, you would type this:

Template:C-nintendo Template:ImageSelf

And see this:

Template:C-nintendo Template:ImageSelf


Next, now that we got that down, we add it to the Featured Pictures. First, go to the Main Page, click on the text that says "Have you voted for the next Featured Picture yet?" or just type into the search box Zelda Wiki.org:Featured Picture Nomination (Or just click on that direct link). The next thing to do is click on the tab at the top of the page that says "edit". Or, you can click on this. Now, scroll down to the text that says "{{clear}}". Above that, but under the text saying "{{oppose}}", type out something looking like this:

== Picture Name == [[Image:picname.something|thumb|200px]] Picture Description --~~~~ {{support}} {{oppose}}


Now, for "Picture name, type what the picture is. If it's Twilight Igniter Fyrus, type that. If it's Hyrule Castle, type that. For the line under it, you type something like [[Image:fyrus.jpg|thumb|200px]] or [[castle.png|thumb|200px]]. It's the name of the file uploaded earlier. Then for picture description, you describe the picture, you type --~~~~ so you sign the post, then the support and oppose parts will make the places where votes are signed. Here's what it should look like using Shad.png as an example:

Shad

File:Shad.png

And that's all there is too it! if you need any more help, feel free to ask. I also see that this is causing the page to act freaky. I'll try to fix that, but you can look at the edit part to help you understand this. User:Seablue254/sig 21:47, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
