Uploading Images

AmtWiki Hosted Images

Before you upload an image to AmtWiki, consider the following:

  • Where will I use this image? Images uploaded should be done so with the intent to add them to a page. Unused images may be considered for deletion.
  • Is this image necessary? Have you already uploaded a similar image, or one that serves a similar purpose?
  • Is the content of this image appropriate for AmtWiki? If the image doesn't fit under the purpose of AmtWiki, do not host it here.

To upload an image from your computer, load the desired picture into the database by using this form. All images uploaded must be 100 MB or less.

  • Then place the syntax [[Image:"your image name".jpg]] onto your page where you want the picture to go.
    • "your image name" is whatever you named the image when you uploaded it.

Externally Hosted Images

Sizing Images

  • To re-size the image, add |"XXX"px after the .jpg
    • "XXX" equals the desired pixel width of your image
  • To align your picture with a certain part of your page add |"Location" after the .jpg
    • "Location" is the place you want it aligned to: Left, Right, or Center
