Uploading Images

Okay, I can upload images and they show up in my own gallery. But when I try to add them to a movie's gallery, they don't show up. Do they need to be approved? If so, how long should it take? Cause I added an image to the gallery for The Curse a few days ago and it's still not there. Getting wiki edits approved doesn't take nearly this long.

Image moderation for users with less than 1000(?) points goes to crowd moderation.  If users don't check on it, the images don't get uploaded, unfortunately.  I just approved the image for you, so hopefully it'll go through soon!

@Vichyssoise: Okay, so, how do I actually get the "crowd" to approve images? Who exactly constitutes this crowd? All users on the site? I don't really get how this works since I've never seen anything indicating I myself have the ability to approve images. Is it only users with a certain number of points?

@vonDread: Anyone under 1,000 points has everything they edit on the wiki moderated. Images go into the image queue for approval, any user can go to the 'Help' tab at the top of the page, and click on 'Mod Images' under the drop down. There you can burn through the images the other users have submitted for approval. Sometimes this can take awhile, longer than the usual 24 hour period we aim for wiki moderations. If its something you want on the wiki page asap feel free to PM a mod and we can try to make sure your image(s) are approved as long as they don't violate are images policy.

Any other questions feel free to PM us mods :)

I think I may have a problem. The images I upload aren't even pending. Is this some kind of glitch?

Edit: Never mind. My images are submitted.

@Acura_Max: They should be sitting in the image queue (which I just cleared out). Have all the ones you've uploaded showed up in your own gallery?

Submissions can take several hours to be approved.
