I just keep getting "Permission Error." - Blameitonmyotp (talk) 17:57, November 7, 2015 (UTC)

Make the name something other than "Screenshot" like if your sim is named "John Redfield" Make the file name "John Redfield's picture" DarkSuicune2000 18:18, November 7, 2015 (UTC)

Hello. Per DarkSuicune, what is the name of the file you're trying to upload? File names like "Picture.jpg" or "Screenshot.png" are not acceptable names, because they're so vague, generic, and unclear. The name of your file should describe the subject of the file; if you were uploading an image of Bella Goth, "Bella Goth in The Sims X.png" is a better file name than "BELLA.GIF" or "Sim.jpg". --I am k6ka ^{Talk to me!} _{See what I have done} 19:22, November 7, 2015 (UTC)

I can't directly upload it within the page. (Like the gallery, slideshow, etc.) But I tried an alternative, I when to "Contribute> Add Image> Upload." Then I went on the page I was trying to add pictures on then used "Recently uploaded images" & It worked just fine. - Blameitonmyotp (talk) 01:46, November 18, 2015 (UTC)
