When creating a new Expedition Images gallery, please copy the following code to the new page:

<!-- Please limit weekdays to 4 images, Saturdays to 12, and Sundays to 8. -->
<!-- Please limit to 1 photo per graticule. -->

<gallery widths="160px" align=center>
Image:20080820 52 7-RES01486.JPG|[[2008-08-20 52 7|Ochtrup, Germany]]
</gallery>

Don't forget to copy the gallery limits as well as the gallery code itself.

Formatting

Each line within the <gallery>...</gallery> tags is to be in the format:

Image:IMAGE NAME|[[MEETUP PAGE TITLE|LOCATION]]

Image names should conform to the standard YYYY-MM-DD LAT LON DESCRIPTION naming method.
Meetup pages should conform to the standard YYYY-MM-DD LAT LON.
Location names should be brief, but descriptive... generally "City, Country" (or "City, State" in the case of the United States).

Guidelines

Some guidelines for the gallery subpages...

For each day include not more than one image from each graticule, especially if space is limited. Share the wealth...
Use an existing Images subpage as a starting point for creating a new one, or follow the how-to.
Add new photos to the start of the gallery.
Please exercise judgment as to whether your photo is genuinely worth adding to the gallery, especially if it would mean removing one of the existing photos where space is limited.
