→ Overriding Images |
Warning! (Small) wall of text follows!
We're getting people overrriding other people's user images. I don't think that this is intentional, but it's still happening. The main place I see it happening is on the LDDScreenShot pages, i.e. File:LDDScreenShot11.png, since that is the default type of name when you use the snapshot feature on LDD. The upload window warns you, but it's just two lines of black text, and not very noticeable. I think we need to do something about this. In addition to the one mentioned above, there is also File:LDDScreenShot10.png, File:LDDScreenShot4.png, File:LDDScreenShot3.png, File:LDDScreenShot2.png, File:LDDScreenShot1.png, File:LDDScreenShot12.png, File:LDDScreenShot13.png, File:LDDScreenShot14.png, File:LDDScreenShot17.png, File:LDDScreenShot18.png, and probably lots more. One solution that I think might work would be to insert the user's name or nickname into the file, i.e. File:Jag-UI01 (user image 01). Another way would be to make the text on the upload window larger and bolder and more visible, to stop people doing it. Opinions, anybody? Jag 02:40, September 3, 2011 (UTC)

I think it should be a general rule to name one's images accordingly. File:Kram2.png and File:Robo-walk.png

- @Jeyo - I'm sure there are more recent forums discussing image naming conventions (that I made). ~ CJC 19:42, November 13, 2012 (UTC)
