Please read carefully

All files uploaded to EarthwiseTM must have the appropriate copyright selected in the upload form below under 'Licensing'. Failure to do so may result in your file being deleted.
To upload a file to MediaWiki.org:
- Choose the source file. Using JPEG format for photographs, GIF for animations, SVG for images with a vector source, and PNG for other images is recommended.
- Edit the destination filename below. Use a descriptive and concise filename, e.g. Button_darkgrey.jpg instead of IMG_0086273.jpg. You will not be able to change the filename once you've uploaded the file.
- Provide detailed information on the subject of the image (what is shown) and the source of the file (author, date, source and permission) in the text box. If you made the image by yourself, state this explicitly. If you obtained the image from somewhere on the web, please include the URL where it can be obtained.
- Select the appropriate license from the dropdown box. Alternatively you can name or add another free license as text to the summary field.
After uploading the file, insert it in relevant pages using the syntax [[Image:Filename.jpg|thumb|Caption]].
Use the form below to upload files. To view or search previously uploaded files go to the list of uploaded files, (re)uploads are also logged in the upload log, deletions in the deletion log.
To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:
[[File:File.jpg]]to use the full version of the file[[File:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]]to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with "alt text" as description[[Media:File.ogg]]for directly linking to the file without displaying the file
