Line 81:
=== Quality of image ===
* Some images simply have bad image quality (compression artifacts, pixelation, and so on). This detracts from what the image is showing, and simple quality upgrades are something you don't even need to ask to replace. For example: [[Giant Enemy Crab]] had [[media:giant-giant-enemy-crab.jpg|this image]] that was replaced with [[media:giantcrabcw_resized_7685.jpg|this higher-resolution copy of the same image]]. No fanfare, just a quick replacement, and on your way.
* While there are no size limits, sizes more than 350 or 400 pixels wide will crowd out text, especially on smaller screens. Either resize the image before uploading it, or use the image width parameter for the File markup (with the Thumb parameter).
* If you need to resize an image (which you shouldn't need to unless it's huge - you can set the image width parameter for the File markup in most cases) and don't like working with MS paint or other programs, you can use [http://www.picresize.com/ pic resize] to do it.
