If you upload images then please take care of the following conventions:

  • Icon images should be named: 'Itemname icon.png'
    And added to Category:Icons, by adding [[Category:Icons]] to the file-page or comment, while uploading.
  • Full-view images, as seen in gameworld, should be named: 'Itemname.png'
    And added to Category:Objects, by adding [[Category:Objects]] to the file-page or comment, while uploading.
  • Plus if it can be found inside any game-menu, added to the category-name of the menu, by adding [[Category:menuname]] to the file-page or comment, while uploading.
    Example. if its a Technology-icon, added to Category:Learning, by adding [[Category:Learning]] to the file-page or comment, while uploading.

Where Itemname and menuname is the exact name as used in the game, including its spaces, capitalization's and punctuations in its name...
This way others can check if they need to upload an image or use an existing one by checking those categories...
It will also be automatically used by {{SetProp}} and {{Infobox}}, to automatically grab the correct image's for a page.

PS:
If you can't find an image in the categories, then please check Special:UncategorizedFiles to see if they exist but need proper categorization.
