*Models screenshot: jpg/png (png recommended)
*Map loading background: .jpg/png (png recommended)
*Wallpapers: .jpg/png (png highly recommended)
; Transparency
Certain images should be transparent. As images are often used in templates and galleries, transparency adds a much greater level of professionalism. This specifically applies to icons, sprays, and similar images. In-game screenshots should not be made transparent.
If you do not know how to adjust an image's transparency or lack the software to do so, upload the image and another editor can assist by adding transparency and re-uploading it.
; Cropping
With the exception of certain in-game screenshots, every image should be cropped to show only the topic at hand.
; Low quality pictures
Low quality pictures are acceptable but they will be replaced with higher quality pictures (if any).
; Renaming file name
Picture file must be renamed first before uploading relevantly. Do not upload it with nonsense name or numbers.
===Videos===
You cannot upload videos to Counter-Strike Online Wiki but you can embed it to pages from YouTube. Make sure it relates to the pages and appropriate. Up to 3 videos are allowed to every page and admins will select the best 3. The usual ones are official trailers from the official websites.
==Sounds==
Firing sound, reloading sound and background music are legal as long as they are official. Sounds must be converted to ogg format before uploading.
