Motivational Posters: the Format for New Entries
In order to make this a useful project with minimal conflicts, please follow this format:
1: Upload the poster picture to the Wiki
In order to prevent people from overwriting each other, use this format for the file name:
MPost(post #)-(summary).(format)
As an example, the very first poster:
MPost1-Cthulhu.jpg
2. Add meta-info for it
It's easiest if we simply put information about the image right on the image desc section. Be sure to include the following:
- A description, which others can use to find this poster with a search...
Description: Cthulhu, perched on rocks by the seaside. "1d6 investigators per round"
- Any notes about the image.
The very first poster that started the thread, posted waaaaay back on May 19. Inspired by The Ghost of Bink Pulling's Warcraft poster in Other Games Open.
- Credits--both the poster itself and the image/text, if known.
Poster created by ThomasT. Image by ???.
- (optional) Add a meme category to it. Add a tag in the form of [[Category: Motivational Posters: X]] where X is one of the following
- Not all posters will belong to a category, so don't feel obligated to add one.
3. Link the display page to the appropriate index
For now, we're going to do pages of 100 posts at a time, collected into groups of 10 at a time (i.e., 1000 posts' worth). Since the Wiki already has a "gallery" function, we'll use that:
<gallery> Image:image1.jpg|Label for image 1. Image:image2.png|Label for image 2. ... </gallery>
Note that the Wiki does thumbnailing automatically, which is nice.
So, let's link up the page we made to the posts 1-100 page:
<gallery> Image:MPost1-Cthulhu.jpg|Post #1: ThomasT's Cthulhu poster, which started it all! ... </gallery>
Et voila! One poster down, 7000 or so to go...

Also if you are the first to add new page please make sure it links back to the index above like so:
[[Motivational Posters:Index0k]]
also that the page is put into This category like so:
[[Category:Motivational_Posters]]
