To include in the infobox: {{Infobox-TMI |image = myfile.jpg |birthname = Yesunge Dalamiq |pronounced = The upload screen also tells you how to show the picture in the main body of your wiki To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms: Code: (Select All) [[File:File.jpg]]  to use the full version of the file Code: (Select All) [[File:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]]  to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with "alt text" as description Code: (Select All) [[Media:File.ogg]]  for directly linking to the file without displaying the file Char: [Nebula Stardancer]   FC: [East Eerie Trading Co] Link Shells: [Hugs & Cakes]  [Witches' Wyrd Web]

The image has to be hosted locally on the wiki I think. Also, it may take a little time to show up... Last time I updated one, it didn't show for hours on the infobox (even if it showed perfectly fine on its own besides), even with cache clearing and all. Balmung: Suen Shyu

Ctrl+f5 on most browsers will refresh with a new cache on most modern browsers for just that page.  You could also clear it for the domain from the dev tools within the browser console.
