General guidelines

These are general guidelines. Items and game mechanics follow separate guidelines, detailed later.

Use the following naming conventions andd file formats:

• Prefix_Page_Name_Suffix.fileformat.png/.webp

The Prefix should be a brief term that gives context to the image. When contextually applicable, it can be the category of the image. A suffix may be added when further clarification is needed. Both should be brief, concise and descriptive.

Examples:

• Underdark_Sussur_Tree.png
• Underdark_Mushrooms.png
• Underdark_Mush_Bibberbang.png
• Underdark_Arcane_Tower_NE.png
• Underdark_Arcane_Tower_S.png

Items and objects

Includes in-game items and objects.

• Faded images, 380x380
  • Prefix_Itemname_Faded.png/.webp
• Unfaded images, 144x144
  • Prefix_Itemname_Unfaded.png/.webp
• Unfaded images, 64x64
• Prefix_Itemname_Unfaded_Icon.png/.webp

The Prefix is usually the category of the item, and does not need to be included when it is unnecessary or the item or object lacks any specific category.

In cases where an item or object has multiple image variations, distinguish them by using a single letter following the item name:

• Backpack_A_Unfaded_Icon.png
• Backpack_B_Unfaded_Icon.png

When multiple items or objects share the same in-game image, only one file should be uploaded. Instead of uploading duplicate images, create Redirects to that image using the same naming conventions as above, corresponding to each item using that image.
