The OpenMedia repository is shared by several projects working on the biowikifarm (see there for a complete list). All user accounts working on the individual project portals will also work here. If you do not have an account, please request one. We welcome your collaboration and your interest in sharing your biodiversity media with others!
To upload images or other media, please click on Upload one file or Upload multiple files on the left side.
When you upload images we have the following requests:
- First and most importantly, please use long file names. There can be only a single image “Bufo bufo.jpg” on the entire repository. Recommended practices are to use a creator’s name (“Bufo bufo by J. Smith.jpg”), strain number (“Museum of Erewhon No 23487121.jpg”), or date (“Bufo bufo 2008-03-10.jpg”). Please prevent naming a file like “2008M-047 01 DM 15d SNA 25x.png”, because it’s very likely to get lost in this (vast) archive without a fine given summary including categorisation. The more information a file name contains the more likely it can be found by others…;-).
- If you can, please upload large images rather than scaled down “web-size” images. Screen resolutions are increasing fast, and a 600 pixel “web-quality” image will be tomorrows thumbnail.
- If you want to reduce image size, please keep a width of 1280 pixels or more. Currently this is often full screen, but soon this may be less than half screen.
- However, if you cannot share this image quality, you are still welcome to upload smaller images.
- Consider uploading original PNG or TIFF images, if you have this quality level (do not convert a JPG image to PNG or TIFF though).
- However, uploading large files may be cumbersome and time consuming. If you have high quality PNG or TIFF images, an alternative to uploading them natively is to convert them to jpg with a very high (e. g. 98% quality) setting.
- The server currently limits the maximum file size to about 50 MB. You may, however, reach an earlier timeout value; this depends on network components and is not under our control.
- It is also helpful to classify and categorize images as it assists to retrieve images and group them into categories. You can get familiar with it on Help’s page “Classification in categories”.
