Images
There are many features on ACDB that make use of uploaded images.
Contents
Anime and Games[edit]
Anime and Games need a product image. This is the 200x200px image used as the cover image. This is set when a title is added, and only a moderator may change it.
There are 3 images a source can have assigned to it.
* Cover Image * Promotional Image * img3 ( not currently in use ? )
Additional Source Images[edit]
Additional Images may also be added by members. Scenery, places, artwork, anything that gives a sense of what the anime is about, where it takes place, or just a cast of characters, make for ideal additional images.
Characters[edit]
Each character has a thumbnail and a main full sized image. The full sized image should reveal all the characters visual traits. The thumbnail should be a close up of the character that makes them easy to recognize.
Additional Character Images[edit]
Members can upload additional images. We are not an image board, keep the image count low. Good additional images would be unique and clearly show the visual traits of the character, while being safe for work.
DO NOT
- Add images that are lewd or vulgar;
- Black and white images;
- Only official, promotional images should be added;
- Fanart should never be added, except for cases like Touhou and Vocaloid where it is often the only option;
- Thumbnails will only be changed when the new thumbnail is a high quality original screenshot of the character that is more easily identifiable than the current thumbnail;
- Images must be kept under 4M size;
- Images of low quality and under 200x200 will not be accepted.
Guilds[edit]
Each Guild may create an image gallery, and within that image collections. What ends up there is entirely up to the Guild. Copyrighted content is not allowed and will be removed by a moderator upon formal request.
