This would be just fine, even that I don't have Freelancer here right know... I always loved to play ing single player, so while finishing the campaign for umpteenth time, I can take pictures... (I've had the bluescreen problem for long, but the solution was on the forum,luckily)

So, the Wiki needs picture of:

Hazardous Areas

Planets

What else?


I think hazardous areas a mine field paragraph could have a picture.

Just go through the articles and see if it needs one. One good place to start is the Commodities and get those small icons for them. Or Since Igiss does not have a lot of space available in the server for wiki please put all the pictures in jpg format and use the thumbnail option (it frames the picture nicely). Just study the pages that have a picture on and you'll get the idea quickly.

I think only one picture per article "object" (like one picture of asteroid field) is enough. It really depends how long the article is and how well the picture(s) fit(s). Pictures should support the text and make it look nice.

NOTE: Don't put any ship pictures in, since wiki editors are trying to get a isometric view (the one like in Odin) in of all ships.

And thank you for doing this. It will be a great help to Wiki. --Looqas 10:23, 19 September 2008 (GMT)
