Uploading edit

Latest comment: 14 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Since there is no copyright in the look of most ships, all you really need to do when you are uploading a photo of such an object is:

Choose a good name (it is currently not extremely easy to rename an uploaded file).
Specify that you are the author.
Specify a license (with a template or choose from the drop-down list)

You've done all of that at your first upload.

The rest can be done later.

Of course, it is very helpful to give it a good description.
Categories are very useful, but if you don't understand how they work (there is a hierarchy of them, they are not tags) or don't want to search for the right categories, you can leave them out, so a bot will probably add a few categories and then people will correct them.

One thing which, if to be done, should be done first, is file format choice. GIF supports only 256 different colors at once, and even if you have deliberately chosen GIF to limit the image to 256 colours, converting the GIF to a PNG and optimizing it (if you don't optimize it, somebody else can, and then the file name already with .png will be helpful) usually gives a smaller file (in this case, 111993 to 89851 bytes).
