Episode Images
From TvDBwiki
Episode images are small screenshots of each episode.
Here's The Breakdown of the system
- Images are limited to one per episode
- Images are limited to a maximum size of 400 x 300
- You can delete images you uploaded
- If an image by another user needs be replaced you will have to post a request in the forums for an admin to do so.
- Images should be uploaded in their original aspect ratio if the show is 4:3 then that should be the ratio of the image. As pretty much everything is now 16:9 any newer show should be getting 16:9 (400x225 as a max) episode images only.
- Images should be an non-spoiler action shot from the episode not randomly generated so we just get a shot of a building or a street light.
- Images shouldn't just be a title shot from the episode we already know the episode's name we don't need to see it again.
[edit] Adding Episode Images

[edit] Deleting Episode Banners
You can delete banners that you have created. When you are logged in you will see the option to delete banners, underneath the ones you have created.
[edit] Replace Episode Banners
Episode banners can be flagged as incorrect aspect ratio, having black bars, too grainy, too small, etc. If it is flagged for any reason a "Replace Episode Banner" box will appear below the image stating why it was flagged. Anyone may use this box to replace the episode banner. The rules when replacing an image are much more strict, only 4:3 (1.31 to 1.35) or 16:9 (1.739 to 1.818) images will be accepted. Also the minimum size is 300x170 instead of 280x150. Should you wish to replace an episode banner which does not have a "Replace Episode Banner" box you can ask in the forums for a mod to flag the current one so that you can replace it; however, it can't simply be a matter of prefrence, there must be something wrong with the current banner or your request will be refused.
