Items
In general, images of items should not be uploaded. Only in rare circumstances (classic screenshots proving existence, stats, etc) would they be useful.

Players
Currently, the only place where you will find p99 player pictures is one per class epic quest, denoting the first player to receive that epic.

I think having a specific policy against posting pictures of the item's graphics is dumb (FashionQuest).
Oh, heh, I never even knew that page existed. That's actually the perfect place to post our unofficial official policy and make it official [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also, I'll update it to mention that fashion screenshots are ok. That page was written back in 2012 by our beloved wiki god Ravhin, and a LOT has changed since (including the introduction of the fashion categories).

The page will (soon) say that images of visible equipment are acceptable, but it should also encourage people to post them on category pages rather than on item pages (since many items look the same, and what we really want is ten different pictures of different races/genders on the same category page holding similar-looking items ... not ten different images on ten different pages of different items that all look the same).
