== Adding images. ==

I'm looking at pages that are missing images and I want to add them.  The images already exist in the images area so I have a link to them, but when I go into the section of the page that needs an image there is nothing I can find to show me where to put it.  

For example: [[Wilma_Peterson]] has a section where the hero is to talk to the Warzone liaison. Currently there is a placeholder image in that section not the small liason image, but when I go to edit that section there is nothing I can see that shows any image info at all.

How/where do I place the replacement image link?

* hi, i don't know if you figured it out (it looks like someone half did) but the info boxes for the contacts don't use the image code when linking to an internal image, like so: 

image=WilmaPeterson1.jpg  <-- this being the pic info

heres the effect:

{{Infobox Contact
|name=Wilma Peterson
|image=Wilma Peterson.jpg
|zone=Independence Port
|x=-2184|y=0|z=4724
|levels=20-24
|introed=
|intros=
|enemies={{Enemy Freakshow}}
{{Enemy The Family}}
{{Enemy Tsoo}}
|badges=
|badges=[[Image:Badge stature 05.png|25px]] [[Pwnz Badge]]
}}

you don't have to bother with sizes as the info box will do for that you. -- [[User:DM Yarrow|DM Yarrow]] 20:09, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

It's not the infobox I'm looking at, it's one of the small icon sized images for contacts that appear in mission discriptions.  On Wilma Peterson's page its in siren's call where there is an image for a badge question mark instead of the small warzone liason image.  It's just one of those minor fixes that I'm trying to tidy up, although in looking more closely I see that the image for the warzone liason isn't present, what we have is a warburg liason so I need to either figure out how to copy warburg into warzone.

I think its working now. Once I created the small image it seems to appear in the pages it's supposed to.

:If I understand correctly, it's the [[:Template:Mission Briefing|Mission Briefing Template]] in the [[Wilma Peterson#See Siren's Call Liaison|See Siren's Call Liaison]] mission you're referring to.  The way the template is set up, you'd have to change the "Longbow Warzone Liaison" in the call to "Longbow Warbug Liaison" to get the image you're looking at to show up, but that would then link to the wrong liaison.  I'm digging into this a bit at the moment.  I've verified that Longbow Warzone Liaison is the correct name for the agent you speak to about Siren's in Steel Canynon and Longbow Warburg Liaison is the correct name for the agent in Kings Row (and grabbed an image).  The redirected page you reach from [[Longbow Warburg Liaison]] seems wrong to me, so I'll see if I can clean that up.  In the process, I'll made a second copy of that briefing image with the correct name to show for the Longbow Warzone Liason.

:Makes me wonder if the info on the liaison for Bloody Bay is correct. . . --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 21:14, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

:Nevermind on copying the image.  You're already on top of that.  :)  --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 21:22, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

:heh. Yeah, I'm the sort that pokes and prods and does her darndest to figure things out on her own. Now to figure out why my small Warren Trudeau isn't working [[User:Laralee|Laralee]] 21:28, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

::That's a good thing though.  I do the same myself.  Only way I ever learn is by making my own mistakes (sometimes over and over again.)

::The templates and images can be a little fussy sometimes.  If you have an image that you've uploaded recently and can't see it appear where you expect it, you may have to clear your browser cache to get it to appear.  Sometimes templates require an edit/save even with no changes to get the images to start showing up right.  Like I said, they're fussy.  --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 22:06, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
