Welcome to IMFDB

Before you do any editing please take the time to read the Rules, Standards and Principles. This is a very important document that explains how this website is setup as well as telling you what is and isn't allowed. If it is determined by an admin that you have not read these rules, your account will be suspended. Continued non-compliance may result in a permanent ban. After that you should also read the IMFDB Screencapping Guide and the IMFDB Style Guide to familiarize yourself with the image and formatting requirements for pages you create.

There are a number of pages that desperately need your help. You can find these Incomplete pages here.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here but make sure to sign your post by typing --~~~~.

Finally, IMFDB has a forum set up here that is only available to registered members. There is lots of good stuff to see there. If you would like to join the forum, please post HERE and an account will be created for you.

Now, HAPPY EDITING! bunni (talk) 13:49, 20 August 2014 (EDT)

Uploads

Per the IMFDB Style Guide, please consider more descriptive file names for your uploads, and please crop the black bars from your screencaps and re-upload. Instructions on cropping are included in the IMFDB Screencapping Guide. Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 11:14, 21 August 2014 (EDT)

Walking Dead

Please try to find HD sources for your screenshots for the Walking Dead. Also, your filenames need to be more specific and your screenshots have to be in the original widescreen aspect ratio. This is the second time you've been told about this and you will be subject to greater disciplinary action if you do not follow the rules as stated above. --Ben41 (talk) 03:32, 22 August 2014 (EDT)

Guns Thumbnail size

Standard size for thumbnails of gun images is 300 px for handguns and 400 px for large guns. Please don't change them to 500 px, it's unnecessary large. Greg-Z (talk) 10:49, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Sorry i don't know. 400 px MAX for large guns ? --FARID|(talk) 12:32, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

No problems. Yes, 400 px is recommended for rifles, machine guns, SMGs and so on (300 px is also used for compact SMGs like Micro Uzi). So 450 px thumbnail for rifle is better to be lessen to 400, not enlarged to 500. Greg-Z (talk) 11:47, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Ok, but one last question, for standart shotguns like Remington 870 Wingmaster or Mossberg 500, 450 px normal? And 400 px for shotguns with short barrels like sawed-off Ithaca 37? --FARID|(talk) 12:59, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

I try to make everything relative, starting with handguns at 300px, and then moving up in increments of 50. One user went a little overboard with the thumbnail sizes, so keep it simple. 500px is a bit large because some thumbnails are also 500px, so it looks a bit weird. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:05, 16 September 2014 (EDT)

Ok, will return all articles are crossed with resolution up to 400 px and 450 px.--FARID|(talk) 13:12, 16 September 2014 (EDT)
