'''Important notes'''
===Preparing Your Upload===
* If you are uploading an image, we recommend you [[The (Image) Collective: Image Upload Directions|follow the guidelines of The (Image) Collective]].
* [[The (Image) Collective: Image Upload Directions|This useful guide from The (Image) Collective]] will help you prepare to upload images for use on the wiki.  
* If your file size is too large, and you need to make it smaller, you can use [http://www.jpegmini.com/main/shrink_photo JPEGmini].
* To help us optimize images for size, run your image through [https://tinyjpg.com/ TinyJPG] (also works on PNGs) first – it's fast and free.
* <span style="color:#FF0000">'''If you are uploading a new version of an image, the new version may not appear for a while.'''</span> Try using CTRL+F5 (PC) or Apple + R (Mac) to force a cache refresh on the page. If that doesn't work, wait at least 30 minutes before trying the upload again.
