→The Fibiwiki upload procedure
'''4. Use descriptive file names'''
:It is requested that you give the files a descriptive name which is related to the image. If you are uploading a photograph of something (say a church) in a town, it is preferable to put the town name first, as it makes it easier to spot relevant images when they are in a mixed category) as titles don’t always display fully in the thumbnail. You make any changes to the filenames file names within your own computer system.
'''5 .''' <big>'''Please ensure images are scanned at 96 dpi and below 2MB in size.'''</big> :Permitted file types: png, gif, jpg, pdf. Jpeg files are the same type as jpg files, however for the upload to proceed, it may be necessary to change the file name from jpeg to jpg . You make this change to the file name within your own computer system.
