Wiki Community/Photos Wanted/Talk

This page exists to discuss the content on Wiki Community/Photos Wanted. Remember that comments can contain wiki markup. As always, we ask that you review our etiquette page.

See WikiSpot Help with Images for detailed information and examples on image layout options.

RocWiki provides three methods for displaying images, a URL directly to the image, uploading the image and using the Image Macro, or referencing the image via the Flickr Macro - see Macro List.

Example 1 - Using FLICKR Photo from Advanced Flickr search for a Creative Commons 3.0 "Rochester, NY" photo

The selected photo has Creative Commons 3.0 permissions so we can display it here directly with proper attribution info. We can use the RocWiki Flickr Macro, link directly to the image, or download the image and upload it to RocWiki

Example 2 - Request for an RGTA Bus Using FLICKR Photo from Flikr search for ''"Rochester NY bus"''

The photo has Creative Commons 2.0 permissions so we can display it here directly with proper license and attribution info. We can use the RocWiki Flickr Macro, link directly to the images, or download the image and upload it to RocWiki

Link To Photo Entry

If the Photo was All Rights Reserved, then we would have to Link Only to Photo

Example 3 - Request for RocWiki sticker
Using FLIKR Photo from Flikr search for ''"rocwiki"''	Downloaded/Uploaded Image
Small square size of a Creative Commons result direct link to photo
All Rights Reserved Photo Sticker in U. of R. Tunnel — we can only link to the page for the viewer to click and view

Example 4 - Using a Webshots Image

Webshots Code: <a href="http://outdoors.webshots.com/photo/2579792540015363044ZGvykE"><img src="http://inlinethumb07.webshots.com/1670/2579792540015363044S200x200Q85.jpg" alt="Swing Bridge toward Webster, NY"></a

Translates to RocWiki syntax: http://inlinethumb07.webshots.com/1670/2579792540015363044S200x200Q85.jpg [http://outdoors.webshots.com/photo/2579792540015363044ZGvykE Swing Bridge toward Webster, NY]
