File upload wizard

Whenever possible, please submit Piñata Vision images (i.e., with scannable barcodes)

Which video game is this media from?

Skip wizard, and go directly to upload form?


To view or search previously uploaded files go to the list of uploaded files, uploads and deletions are also logged in the upload log.

To include a file in a page, use a link in the form [[File:File.jpg]], [[File:File.png|alt text]] or [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file.


Upload form

The {{file information}} template should typically be included in the summary. Instructions for filling out the fields are found here. The above file upload wizard will prefill most of the fields for you. Please remember to add an appropriate description.


Please note our naming conventions - files should be named in the following form (add -PV if it is a Pinata Vision card):

Species-Game-Details Item-Game
  • ArcticBunnycomb-TroubleInParadise-CutsceneRomance-PV.jpg
  • Bunnycomb-TroubleInParadise-House-PV.jpg
  • Bunnycomb-TroubleInParadise-Wildcard1-PV.jpg
  • Cactus-TroubleInParadise-PV.jpg
  • ClearSky15minutes-TroubleInParadise-PV.jpg
  • DecoyPinata-TroubleInParadise-PV.jpg
