Hey Doc, I'm not sure if you're active, but I'm here and have been contributing to the Strategy pages a ton recently. Just popping a note here that I'm personally offering to join the Community Strategy Project, and have been hard at work for the last week or so. Take a look at the Basic Strategy pages: I have added info, edited, and tweaked all of them with the help of InShane to cut out the grit.

Before I go there, I wanted to confirm that it is acceptable to upload images found on the workshop, particularly of maps, with the caveat that the workshop image accurately conform to the present release of the map. I should think that the licensing would be that of screenshot taken in game. I don't have a particular image in mind, but I would think it could save me some time if I found an ideal image in the workshop.

I am beginning to move on to the Community Strategy pages since they are outdated as nuts, and am almost done with the Community Scout strategy page. I'll keep going till every class is updated, then I'll see if I can help out with the map pages and such. I hope that my contributions are appreciated in the long run; InShane seems to like my additions.

:Yeah it's okay to use Workshop images if they're representative of the final version of the map. And yes they are licensed as screenshots. I never really use Workshop screenshots and always make my own for chances are the Workshop version of the map and the final release version always changes. --[[File:User Dr. Scaphandre Golden Ghastly Gibus.png|30px|link=User talk:Dr. Scaphandre]] [[User:Dr. Scaphandre|<font color="FFDF00"><big>''Dr. Scaphandre''</big></font>]] 16:30, 25 October 2017 (PDT)
  
If you don't mind, I'll also add my name to the [[Team Fortress Wiki:Community Strategy]]'s contributor names if it is agreeable.

Hi.

1) Is there any guidance on the overview image?

2) Is there a place in the game files to find the "Map photos" or are they just shopped from a screenshot of the splash page?

Now if it isn't too much of an issue, maybe you could go and give my recent Community Strategy page updates a check? Everything was edited down to weapon combinations and class cooperation strategies to be as recent as possible. Currently only Scout and Soldier are done though. Takes a long time.

I am aware these were some awful additions but my concept was ok. I'm new to the formatting (eg. Info boxes) and had The sections a little jumbled but ive already spent the last 4 hours trying to figure out the formatting but then when I figured out that the "see also" and "updates" tabs were in the wrong spot I wanted to fix it but my little sis wanted me on a bike ride. so I didn't get to fix it right away so I left it thinking "these areas have been abandoned for some time" so I left it to come back too in an half-hour so I will admit the page as it stood was pretty bad so I'll fix it then publish it the next time I do something like that. Once again sorry.

Uploading Workshop images

Before I go there, I wanted to confirm that it is acceptable to upload images found on the workshop, particularly of maps, with the caveat that the workshop image accurately conform to the present release of the map. I should think that the licensing would be that of screenshot taken in game. I don't have a particular image in mind, but I would think it could save me some time if I found an ideal image in the workshop. Mikado282 (talk) 10:43, 25 October 2017 (PDT)

Yeah it's okay to use Workshop images if they're representative of the final version of the map. And yes they are licensed as screenshots. I never really use Workshop screenshots and always make my own for chances are the Workshop version of the map and the final release version always changes. --User Dr. Scaphandre Golden Ghastly Gibus.png Dr. Scaphandre 16:30, 25 October 2017 (PDT)

Map infobox images

Hi.

1) Is there any guidance on the overview image?

2) Is there a place in the game files to find the "Map photos" or are they just shopped from a screenshot of the splash page?

Image Quality

I have still been disappointed by the resolution of the screenshots. You can see my latest efforts at Category:Enclosure images. I have Model and Texture detail at the highest settings. I guess I should try higher Antialiasing and Filtering modes (than 2x MSAA and Anisotropic 4x)? MIKADO282 oOOOOo oo oo 02:20, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
