Adding images to a wiki article can be a complex process. The Mediawiki software underlying the TS Wiki is not WYSIWYG ("what you see is what you get") in its graphic interface. Therefore, you have sometimes have to experiment a bit to get an image into the desired size and position.

The basic syntax for displaying an image is:

[[File:filename.extension|options|caption]]

See Mediawiki's article Help:Images for the complete array of options in placement of images. Another good source of information is Wikipedia in Simple English's Help:How to use images
