Don't use generic names like "010203.jpg" or "tank.jpg", but start any name with the game prefix (
{| class="wikitable" style="float: right"
[[Naming_Conventions|ArmA, AiV, OFP, VBS]]) if it shows a feature of that particular game, followed by a ''descriptive'' file name (e.g. "ArmA_Closeup_of_Hummer", or "OFP_Map_of_Malden", etc.).

Here are naming rules:
* give files a meaningful name<br>(do not use random or auto-generated file names like <tt>DCIM-0001.JPG</tt> or <tt>arma3-2001-06-21_14-00-00.png</tt>)
* '''prefix''' by the game id + underscore (see [[Naming_Conventions|ofp, arma, arma2, arma3, tkoh, tkom, ylands]]) if the picture shows this game's specific feature


When uploading images of your own mods include your tag as a prefix (e.g. "BAS_Tonal.jpg"), and keep the numbers of pictures in your home and mod pages to a reasonable limit ([[Guidelines]]).
