 * Hi Im replying to your e-mail here because it means i am more likely to find your response sooner as i don't use my e-mail regularly as you may have noticed by your 5 day wait for a reply which i apologise for i am normally much quicker to respond. Anyway enough of my blathering, to your question. It is very simple to upload an image to wikipedia. There are 5 easy steps:

1. Go to the Wikipedia Main page

2. Click the link that says "Upload File" in the toolbox section of the left hand column (i strongly advise reading the image polices before taking the next steps)

3. Once you are familiar with the polices etc you can then go to the Upload form link on the "upload file"

4. Click on choose file and it will open up a window and allow you to browse your files and choose the one your wish to upload. Give all the details of the file, who created, filename destination etc and once you feel you have complete the form as fully as possible you can then click the Upload file button below the summary box.

5. Now to place your image in a wikipedia page. To do this you can use a number of templates but i advise this one.

Here are some examples from one of my pages:

The thumb in the middle of the code allows for writing to go down the side of the image and for the caption to be visible at the bottom as well as the image to become a thumbnail. An image will still appear on page without this though always double check that you've put it in. Thumb on its own puts the image to the right so to centre or put it to left your have to add another section to the template.

Here are all three templates for your future use:







Good luck and if you have any problems please leave a message on my talk page.
