Selecting images for uploading

Before you upload an image, make sure that the image falls in one of the four categories:

Own work: You own all rights to the image, usually meaning that you created it entirely yourself. (example, see below for details)
Freely licensed: You can prove that the copyright holder has released the image under an acceptable free license. Note that images that are licensed for use only on AmtWiki, or only for non-commercial or educational use, or under a license that doesn't allow for the creation of modified/derived works, are unsuitable. (example, see below for details) When in doubt, do not upload copyrighted images.
Public domain: You can prove that the image is in the public domain, i.e. free of all copyrights. (example, see below for details)
Fair use: You believe that the image meets the special conditions for non-free content, which exceptionally allow the use of unlicensed material, and you can provide an explicit non-free use rationale explaining why and how you intend to use it.

Player pages may have one photo uploaded to the wiki. Other images may be linked from other sources such as photobucket. Space on the wiki servers is limited, photos are a large chuck of that data. Player photos should include appropriate categories [[Category:Player Photos]]
Player photos may only be images of the person, not of say, a duck.
Companies and households are encouraged to include a group photo and one of their heraldry.
Chapters are also encouraged to include a group photo and one of their heraldry. Chapter heraldry photo uploads should include appropriate categories [[Category: Active Chapter Heraldry]] or [[Category: Defunct Chapter Heraldry]]
