Destinypedia:Personal image policy: Difference between revisions

Here at Destinypedia, we encourage users to personalize their user pages so that all of us in the community may get to know each other. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, and so users are permitted to upload a prescribed number of images to the server for no other use than to decorate their user pages. This permission however is subject to the following standards:

*'''Each user is allowed four personal images.''' A personal image is defined as one not in specific use by the project. (Generally, this means that the image is only in the User namespace.)

*'''Additionally, a user may also have one small image to use in signatures.''' The image must not be taller than 35 pixels when scaled to fit the signature, and it should be roughly square. It should not be distracting (e.g., animated).

*If a user wants to have more than one personal image in a signature, or if he or she wants to give out a custom award, then that's fine, but it counts as one of the large images.

*'''All personal images must be used within one day (24 hours) of being uploaded.''' Otherwise, they will be subject to deletion as unused images.

We regret having to be legalistic about this (the wiki is supposed to be lighthearted and fun, after all), but we have grown to the point that having a standard is necessary, and simply giving free rein in this matter works against the goals of the knowledge base.
