Forum:Tag Force 6 Image Project


 * Video game images seem to be popular, however, not many people are uploading them (probably due to not being able to have access to them). So I'm starting a page which includes a guide on adding them properly, a way to track progress and links to batches of images for upload. This allows for many users to contribute on this and get this done once and for all.
 * Basically, the images are numbered, and you post which section you will do. A guide to adding them properly can be found below. Ignoring one of the major steps will be annoying to clean up and will hinder the progress, so please do all 3 of the main steps.
 * The numbered image batch can be found after reading the guide.
 * Once this is complete, I'll make a page which contains a list of the images and a link to a batch download, then we can move on to TF05.

Short Version

 * 1) Proper file name, per Project:Image policy.
 * 2) Licensing
 * 3) Adding it properly

Long Version

 * 1) Proper file name, per Project:Image policy.
 * Since this is all about TF06, it's just

nameVG-TF06-JP.png
 * Common mistakes:
 * Only certain symbols are omitted, not all.
 * A common mistake is that the comma is kept,
 * whereas the apostrophe ('), period (.) and dash (-) are not kept.
 * Spaces are also omitted.
 * The case of the name is the same as the case on the card.
 * For video game images: There is no dash between the 'name' and VG (nameVG-Game-LN.png)
 * Examples:
 * Blackwing - Jetstream the Blue Sky = BlackwingJetstreamtheBlueSkyVG-TF06-JP.png
 * T.G. Striker = TGStrikerVG-TF06-JP.png
 * Shien's Dojo = ShiensDojoVG-TF06-JP.png
 * Sandaion, the Time Lord = Sandaion,theTimeLordVG-TF06-JP.png


 * 2) Licensing

Licensing

 * Just copy paste that in the summary on the upload page, then change 'name' to the actual name of the card (not the name of the image file).


 * Also, if the card is not available in the OCG, then add


 * after the licensing. This category step may be left out for now and added later.
 * Example: 1.


 * 3) Adding it properly


 * Go to the Card Gallery page for the card, then edit the page with the edit button (do not use the add an image to this gallery button)
 * If does not exist on the page, add:


 * }
 * (You may add the actual card to the page as well if you feel like it, but it can be added later).
 * If an image under the correct name already exists, then skip over it (of course)
 * If an image is there, but has the wrong file name, then... look into Template:Rename.

Steps

 * (This is just the steps in the order of how I add these images, and is what I think is the fastest method.)
 * Also note that if you don't know the name for an image, you can go to Google Images and drag/drop the image into the search.


 * 1) Go to the Card Gallery page and edit it (do not use the add an image to this gallery button).
 * 2) in the source, add the image code and change 'name' to the correct name.
 * 3) click 'Preview' and scroll down to the image, it should be a red link, middle click on it to open it in a new tab.
 * 4) on the new tab, 'Browse' for the Source filename, add the Licensing in the Summary. (this method should automatically add the name to Destination filename)
 * 5) Click 'Upload file', once it's uploaded, close the tab.
 * 6) You should be back on the Card Gallery page, click 'Publish'.

Stuff, Comments, Discussion, etc.

 * So... onto the section about the actual images. Part 1 Contains images 001 to 268, these have been accounted for.
 * Part 2 containing 269 to 400 can be found here.
 * Part 3 (last part) containing 401 to 586 (yea, not 584, I might have doubled up on 2 of them, we shall see later) will be available once Part 2 is done.
 * Once it's done, we can go onto Tag Force 5 images.
 * Also, if you happen to have a bunch that isn't from this provided file, you can upload them, all it means is that when someone goes over that number, they can skip it.
 * I've decided to use Mediafire over Megaupload because Mediafire does not delete files as long as they are being downloaded OR if the attached account is being accessed. Also, 4 notification emails are given before deletion if neither of the two are done. Megaupload deletes after 90 days of last download. Or at least that's what their FAQ page says.

 * As a quick note, number 320 in your "Part 2" download is Diffusion Wave-Motion, which is an old card that was in Tag Force 5 as well. I've downloaded your Part 2 files, have renamed them on my computer to the name Wikia uses, and will start uploading when Wikia's main database is back up. For anyone else who's going to be helping out, here's the list of categories of cards that are new to Tag Force 6.
 * -Storm of Ragnarok (+80)
 * -Extreme Victory (+80; seven of the T.G. monsters have alternate art available in Tag Force 5. I will end up uploading both)
 * -Generation Force (+80)
 * -Photon Shockwave (+80)
 * -Duel Terminal - Judgment of Omega!! (+30)
 * -Duel Terminal - Xyz Startup!! (+30)
 * -Extra Pack Volume 4 (+40)
 * All the rest are Promo cards, or small sets of cards such as the new cards in the Yusei 3 and Crow Duelist Packs, Structure Decks 20 and 21, and Starter Deck 2011. AEtherchild (talk • contribs) 16:03, October 20, 2011 (UTC)

 * Hehe, I knew you of all people would notice this :) I'm in the process of uploading a bunch now, my profile page is going to be my progress file of what I have and have not uploaded so far. AEtherchild (talk • contribs) 19:37, October 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Excluding random promos, I'm missing 201 named cards so far (jeez, surprised by that number), but have 419 named right now. I hope Falzar can upload the rest of the TF6 cards to Mediafire soon ^^
 * Also, would you mind uploading Part 1 sometime, too? (I mean, Falzar uploads the images for Part 1 in a file to mediafire)
 * Behemothbear (talk • contribs) 20:33, October 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * @ AEtherchild
 * You should probably skip anything that is available in previous games, since TG06 quality was decreased. Part 1 are just the files that are already uploaded (and a small bunch which I have already set up to upload soon).
 * I've noticed that you're adding the Licensing separately, so in case you missed it, you can add the Licensing in the summary of the upload page and it'll transfer to the page. But if you find adding it separately faster, then by all means continue.
 * Also, out of curiosity, how many TF05s do you have?
 * @ Behemothbear
 * At this rate, it will be soon.
 * I have 3 assignments due by tonight, so I should go for now. I'll upload some tomorrow and maybe part 3 as well.

 * Yeah, I've been skipping anything available in older games, going for only Tag Force 6 exclusives. I've uploaded what I have from Storm of Ragnarok, Duel Terminals 11 and 12, and Extra Pack Volume 4, about to do the 28 from Extreme Victory. My profile page is my progress box. I wasn't sure if adding the licensing through the summary box would work properly, I'd forgotten to test it ^_^ As for TF5s... I've got a grand total of 5,158 images from Tag Force 5 and previous, sorted by expansion set. As far as I know all 4,727 cards are there, with all alternate artworks and TCG/OCG artworks. AEtherchild (talk • contribs) 22:54, October 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * I should elaborate on the question; do you know how many TF05 exclusives (ignoring TF06) do you have. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 22:58, October 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * If I recall correctly, there's 664. I have them sorted by card set, not game, so I can't check as easily as I wish. IIRC there's 562 Tag Force 4 exclusives if you're wondering. AEtherchild (talk • contribs) 23:04, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just realised I'm thinking cards and not actual artworks. I'll need to double-check to find out how many TF4 and TF5-exclusive images there are, but those numbers should be right (give or take 1 or 2) for actual cards. AEtherchild (talk • contribs) 23:07, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
