The Ink Pump talk page is for discussing the Ink Pump. General inquiries and discussions should go on the main Ink Pump page at Inkipedia:Ink Pump.

Image fix
I kinda screwed up. I tried adding an image in Splatfest Tee and instead of the image, the image URL was there instead. Could anyone either fix that or re-do it? I'd also like to know how I can place an image on a page, if anyone could show me how.

Thanks, --Sigma (talk) 15:22, 3 August 2015 (UTC)Sigma


 * You should post this on the talk page for the page you edited, but it's fine. The wiki doesn't allow using images from external websites, for several reasons. You'll have to get the image from the website, uploaded to the wiki, carefully pick the license, and only then can you use it. – EspyoT 15:58, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

How do I pick the liscense?

Uploading Images
I tried to upload a new file of the Team Rock logo image on the Splatfest page and it uploaded it four times. What do I do? And can somebody delete the unwanted ones?

 * Heh, you're okay. Look at the New Files. See, it's just got one Team Rock logo. Looks like you just edited the same file four times. Happens to the best of us. 😛--Bzeep!  talk  01:28, 18 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I was trying to upload one without the crescent, yet it says thats the current one even though I reverted it. Any way you could help me with that?


 * Also, I was wondering, how do you make your own signature? --Sigma (talk) 02:28, 18 August 2015 (UTC)Sigma


 * Erm.. well, if you.. see the correct image, you know you're not wrong. If it doesn't look wrong, then it isn't. I'm looking at it and it looks fine. Nobody can even see the previous versions of the file unless they actually... go looking for them.


 * And to make a unique signature, go to Special:Preferences. See the thing that says "New signature"? In there you can put whatever you want your signature to look like. Like, to make mine orange and have an exclamation mark, I've got:




 * So yeah. Play around with it if you want. Once you have something you like, you can put it in Template:Patrollerlist.

 * To create a custom signature like Bzeep's, also be sure to check the "Treat signature as wiki text" box. Otherwise it will not work. Learned that the hard way. - IanMS00   talk 03:27, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Oh, thanks guys!

How does it look? --Sigma   talk 16:32, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I think it looks pretty good. You can also add a link to your talk page (or your contributions, too) if you wanted to. - IanMS00   talk 16:37, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Great. Now you can put it into Template:Patrollerlist. - IanMS00   talk 20:25, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Deletion
Okay, can somebody tell me why my weapon images are being deleted when I uploaded them first? Mine weren't duplicates, the others were.

 * We use a strict file-naming system, and yours were most likely incorrectly named. Inkling luke.png (Inkling talk.png) 20:08, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Okay, got it. --Sigma   talk 20:52, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
