Wikitravel talk:How to add an image Travel Guide

print version of images
So, one thing that's probably important to note is the relationship between thumbnails and print versions of the guide. What happens with those? What's the best procedure for making images printable? --Evan 14:50, 9 Aug 2004 (EDT)
external image inclusion
Is it possible to include images from external servers by a <img src="http.."> tag? Currently i work on a template for automatic map inclusion (for german wikitravel), it seems not to work, i guess the substitution of the parameters in '{{{ }}}' works only in wikilink syntax like '[link]'etc.?!

- No, it's not possible. Jpatokal 11:48, 7 Aug 2005 (EDT)
image sharing between languages
Is it possible to share images between different language editions of Wikitravel, and how is it done? It would be much easier to just have (say) Image:en:whatever.png instead of manually copying them. JSt 10:16, 22 Nov 2005 (EST)
- No, it's not possible. It's been discussed before though [1] [2] and will hopefully be implemented soon. Jpatokal 23:03, 22 Nov 2005 (EST)
- It's now possible; see Shared:Main Page. --Evan 11:17, 16 Feb 2006 (EST)
- Is there any easy way to move image from en: to shared, so it can be reused in language version? --JanSlupski 14:43, 6 April 2006 (EDT)
- As far as I can tell, no. It'd be pretty handy, though. --Evan 18:19, 6 April 2006 (EDT)
Error Messages
I keep getting errors when trying to upload some images. It says "The file you uploaded seems to be empty." I know the file is there, and I'm able to upload other images from the same folder. I have this problem with multiple images. Somebody please help. Tennreb 10:41, 16 Feb 2006 (EST)
- There seems to be a hard upper limit to the size of the files you can upload — I've gotten this when uploading file over a couple of megs. Jpatokal 10:48, 16 Feb 2006 (EST)
- Yeah, it was set to 2Mb for PHP. I've reset it trepidatiously to 8Mb so even folks with super-fancy cameras can upload their original files. I'm wondering, though: doesn't that seem awfully large? --Evan 11:16, 16 Feb 2006 (EST)
- Not if you actually want to print out the image. Jpatokal 11:33, 16 Feb 2006 (EST)
