=== Image naming ===
__NOTOC__
==== General guidelines ====
== Image layout and presentation ==
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:Images|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:Images|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.
 
==== Game mechanics ====
Includes spells, actions, abilities, conditions, passive features, and feats.
 
* '''Large faded images'''
** Page_Name.webp
* '''Small unfaded icons'''
** '''Transparent background'''
*** Page_Name_Icon.webp
** '''Opaque background'''
*** Page_Name_Condition_Icon.webp
 
=== Image layout and presentation ===
 
==== Character images ====
==== Character images ====
For character pages, whenever possible, include {{em|both}} a cinematic portrait/screenshot {{em|and}} a transparent full-body model of the character. Display the cinematic portrait first and ensure the [[Template:PageSeo|PageSeo]] template has been invoked with the cinematic portrait as the '''image''' parameter. This will help ensure consistency across character pages and external link previews (e.g. social media sites and Discord).
