Hello! Thank you for uploading new content to the DC Database project! We have lots of images in our database, 88,977 in fact, and in order to keep them organized we use a system of naming, categories and licensing added to each. Please review our Naming Conventions for Images. Images are categorized by name, so a descriptive name rather than a string of numbers is important. As a guide, look what other images in a character's gallery are called, and continue with the same name and number. If you upload a first image of a character, use "[Name] [Universe] 001". Ignore the Universe designation if it is a New Earth character. Issue covers should be given at least the title of the series, the volume and the number. A name similar to the issue is preferred: "Title Vol 1 1". Textless covers should be called "Title Vol 1 1 Textless". Files that do not indicate the issue number will be deleted. Add the Image Template to the images you upload. This is mandatory. Fill it in as detailed here, or below. Selecting the proper license is vital to properly maintaining our images. Please choose the license which best describes the image you are uploading. The most commonly used are 'Comic Single Panel' and 'Comic Cover', respectively. Other fields that should be filled in: Issue, Subject1, Artist. Add Source if you've taken it from a different site. If you've taken it from a different site and don't know the issue, DO NOT UPLOAD IT. In addition, please take a moment to review our policies page and more specifically our image policy. Questions can be directed to any of our admins, or asked on our forums.

  There's no dire need for better images in many cases. And you can always upload a 002 image, instead of leaving us with cleanup.

  What I meant was, we don't need the same image in a better quality, not unless you properly add the image template, change the old image with the new on all pages it's used on, and mark the old one for deletion.

  Use that delete template on the old image. You can copy the contents of the old image (the image template) on the new one.

  Yeah, I wanted to change its name to end with 02, but couldn't find the rename template.
