Ghost Walker
Edit
Thanks for uploading the Ghost Walker cover scan! The old image was way too blurry and this one looks much better. I had to rename and resize it however, as the picture was too large and the name was just a series of numbers, not very descriptive. Please take a look here, it's all written down there. Welcome again on MA and have fun! :-) --Jörg 21:12, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Image citation
Edit
When uploading images please make sure they are either "fair use" or "copyrighted by paramount". Also please be sure to cite the images sources. This information and more can be found on image upload page, and is acutally a recommended read for any new user prior to making a file upload. Thanks. --Alan del Beccio 06:41, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Repeated edits
Edit
When editing a page it's best to use the show preview button rather than saving the page to see what your changes did. It saves on the db, and makes it so that when you make a change to a page, you know that it's doing exactly what you think that it should be doing. -- Sulfur 02:29, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
