I am sick and tired, no wait - myself and Sunshine are sick and tired of opening up our emails, seeing that a page has been edited in a way that a picture has been added. Now, that is alright, people can add pictures if they want to BUT if you added the photo, you must add a caption alongside it! We want the captions so people who visit the wiki understand what is going on in the screenshot. Because sometimes, I look at a photo and wonder "what is going on?", but there's no caption so I have no clue what is going on!

So, here's a question I have been wondering for a long time, Do you users who add images but no captions not know how to put captions on images or are you just plain old lazy? Don't be shy, say so below which one you are. That way, I can be on a look out to see who needs help and who needs a lecture. Personally I think people are gonna say they have no idea how too so they don't get the lecture...

So, for you who don't know how to do a caption, it's really easy. Seriously, it isn't that hard. So, first off you need a picture. Let's see...

Ah! Found one! Now you need to add a caption. Here is where it could get a little tricky if you're in visual mode. Here's a tip. Screw visual mode when it comes to pictures. If you're in source mode, it's really easy because this is all you have to do:



But if you're in that visual mode, you will have to do something slightly different. But I won't explain it as you'll mostly be working in the source mode for this. So there's another way to do this caption think and that is when the photo is in the scroll box:

You do it like that. You get rid of the " " thing and replace all that with a "|" and then the caption XD

P.S Thanks to whoever created Yonezo's page. I pretty much stole the scroll box there XD

If I see anyone not adding captions after this thread, I'm gonna be shocked. Like come on, get your fingers typing! Don't be lazy! Laziness can be good sometimes if you want a break but if you're not gonna add captions, don't add photos. Simple as that.
