Upload
- go to Upload file page
- add data
- confirm licensing
- DO NOT USE UNLICENSED OR OTHER COPYRIGHT PROPERTY WITHOUT PERMISSION

- parameters may include:
[[File:|250px|border|right|caption]] [[File:|500px|frame|center|caption]]

- so use thumb instead of frame

The "Praise of the Two Lands" or Khufu ship
- so use thumb instead of frame
