When uploading images, check out Memory Alpha:Image use policy also. Especially the copyright bit. It's also likely a good idea to check out some of the Image categories (there are a couple of subcategories listed on the first page, the rest seem to be on one of the last pages for some god-unknown reason). -- Sulfur 15:05, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Image uploads
Hello, please add a caption to the images you upload. You can use "edit this page" after uploading, or just write it in the summary field of the upload form. If it is a screencap, it should also have the episode it is from in the form Where SER is the series 3 letter code, and EPISODE is episode's page name. Screen caps also need the tmeplate in them. --Bp 15:56, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Addning links
There is a link to various "how to edit pages" type instruction in your above welcome messsage.

We need to add links to -- when you write the word Spock, put double brackets around it - Spock - this will make it a link to the page Spock. Also, write the name of an episode a picture came from and put the brackets around it for example. This is how we add citations to pictures. -- Captain M.K.B. 16:22, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
