Use the form below to upload files. To view or search previously uploaded images go to the list of uploaded files. Uploads and deletions are also logged in the upload log.

Please review the KoL Wiki Image Use Policy before uploading files.

The Summary field should typically only be used for adding special image-related templates. Specifically:

  • {{kolimage}} is used for images coming directly from the game itself.
  • {{modkolimage}} is used for images that have been modified by users for various purposes. This could include splitting up a large image into several pieces, so each piece can be used for a distinct link, or used on other pages.

To include the image in a page, use a link in the form:

[[File:file.gif|alt text]] or
[[File:file.gif|alt text|positioning]] or
[[Media:file.gif]] for directly linking to the file.
  • Positioning - center, right, left, etc.
