Desperate Housewives

Are you prepared to commit to all 180 episodes? --Funkychinaman (talk) 09:52, 3 March 2013 (EST)

I am going to try. There are not many scenes with guns in them. There are a few big ones that I will make sure to find.
Though Funkychinaman seems like he's being a bit harsh, he is just concerned in that it is unlikely that most of our members would be able to assist on this entry, being that so very few of us would either watch it or have it on DVD. So being the 'resident' Desperate Housewives 'expert' comes with it an obligation to help IMFDB complete the page. :) Hope you understand. And THanks! :D MoviePropMaster2008 (talk)
I did not mean to sound harsh, but the fact is, there are only a few series that have run 180 episodes here, and the fact that your FIRST page ever is for a series in which you will almost definitely be alone in supplying screencaps is worrisome. Screencapping an entire series alone is a huge commitment, I hope you will be able to follow through. --Funkychinaman (talk) 21:54, 3 March 2013 (EST)

Naming your screencaps

You are using names which are WAY TOO GENERIC and risk deletion. Names like "Death1" and "Holding" are too generic. They could apply to many TV shows or movies. We require that you try to briefly identify the show your screencap is associated with. Like naming a file "DH-BethModel36.jpg" with the abbreviations helping ID what the shot is intended for. We recommend that the title of the show (even in abbreviation) be on the file name as well as some sort of reference to the gun. Thanks! :D MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 18:26, 3 March 2013 (EST)
