Uploading Files

To upload an image or whatever, look for the toolbox on the left hand side, just under the search. There you will see a link that says, Upload file. Click there. It will take you to a new page and it will tell you to locate the file (Browse). The filename just below is for use on this wiki. You can rename it so it will be easier to remember where it is.

Or you can just click here to upload a file. NOTE: This feature is actually disabled right now. Sorry for the inconvenience.
