Thanks

Thanks, I guess. I'm horrible at everything that has to do with graphics and editing/creating pictures. But, how do you update an image? Just so I know in the future...

I don't believe that Writers have the privilege to update images. Or at least that's what I heard.

Sure we do. Special:Upload ( Scarfacial | Message | Talk )

I know we can upload them, but wouldn't it be more effective to replace the old one (aka: updating)?

Oh sorry, misread what you said. ( Scarfacial | Message | Talk )

As from the link that Quenty PMed me, I believe you might be able to do it by going to the normal uploading page, adding "?wpForReUpload=1" to the end of the link and then specifying the same destination file. I can't promise it'll work, though.

I'm pretty sure you don't need a link. Erm. IDK. - Quenty (talk • January 18)

I thought you just uploaded the file of the same name. Although I've never done it/needed to do it, so I'm on no authority to confirm or deny :x ( Scarfacial | Message | Talk )

I tried the link Quenty sent me. But I got this error: A file with this name already exists, and cannot be overwritten. If you still want to upload your file, please go back and use a new name.

Looks like only editors can update files. Perhaps we need to ask MrDoomBringer/another admin to fix it? I mean, they wouldn't make us able to upload files but not to update them on purpose. There'd be no point in that.
