Tip: Categorizing images
[edit]
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
[[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
[[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
[[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations").
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.CategorizationBot (talk) 11:02, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Your pictures for the film speed and aperture articles
[edit]Hi. I see that you have added some GIF animations to the film speed and aperture articles. While I like the idea, I think, the pictures need further improvement to be acceptable. The ISO picture should not show the company name because the effect described is generic and there is no reason to show a company name here. The pictures of the opening aperture should be improved in the following ways: The lens should not move and the illumination/exposure not change between the shots. The second picture is mostly unsharp, anyway. I don't know what happened to the DOF picture, but this picture clearly does not show the effect of DOF, but is digitally processed - please have a look at, for example, the background, which becomes grainier as the aperture opens. All: Change the speed of the animation. As they are, the animation is way too fast for my taste. The "flickering" causes a significant amount of "stress" when reading the aperture article. --88.77.209.208 08:40, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
