Welcome to the Suits Wiki's Image Guidelines.

Please refer to the Guidelines for more information.

Introduction

This page will answer many of your questions pertaining to articles on this wikia. If you cannot find your answer, please ask me on my Message Wall.

Uploading images

Format advice

We tend to use the .PNG format for images because .JPG images tend to be low quality and grainy when resized. Please try to upload images with the png file extension.

When deciding on what to name a picture, PLEASE use the following naming convention:

For characters: Episode Code-Description-Characters' First Name Only

For screenshots of no particular character: Episode Code-Description

For Promo Events for Cast: Event Name-Year-First&Last Name of Cast Member-Optional Picture#

For Photoshoots: PS-Photographer name/Studio-Name of Cast Member First + Last

So for example:

  • S02E01Dinner Jessica.jpg
  • Oscars 2012 Gina Torres 05.png

We like to try to keep this as consistent as possible. Try to name it as appropriately as possible. Do not use nonsensical/non-descriptive names for images.

Image information

When you upload an image on this wiki, please provide the necessary information on the file's page by creating different section, such as:

  • Summary: this is an optional field where one can provide information on the image and the meaning or purpose for it.
  • Source: this information is important and helpful, so specify where the file comes from. For example, the volume/chapter if a manga picture, the episode if an anime screenshot or the sites if you took it from internet.
  • Licensing: please provide the right license for each image.
  • Categorization: after you upload a file, add the categories by the button at the bottom; creating a section for it isn't necessary. You must put all images in the Images category, then all episode screen captures under Images from Episodes category, then all images with a clear shot of characters under Images of Characters category.

Acceptable and Anacceptable Images

Acceptable

  • Screenshots or panoramic images.
  • Fanart showing a single symbol used with the consent of the original maker, used where the show or a press release could not provide a decent enough image.
  • File extensions: .PNG, .GIF, .JPG This is standard requirement for the wikia and many file extension types (such as .BMP) are not uploadable.

Unacceptable

  • Fanart of any form - from fan color images to full character depictions, though there is one exception (see "Acceptable").
  • Very low quality images, such as blurry images in general.
  • Doctored images of any form.
  • Images unrelated to this wiki. We're not an image hosting site like Flickr, which exists for this purpose.
  • Watermarked images, these are claimed by an owner as their property and they may be offended if the image was taken without permission.
    • Note: No image taken from Youtube may be used.
  • Both porn and nudity.
