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.
