The site needs a picture

I have an item that is listed under Exonumia and it needs a picture uploaded of the back of it. Also the item has a series of numbers on the front and mine is not the same number. So do I add to the information already there by uploading the reverse image? If so what do I do about the number difference? Thank you for your help.

Hello and welcome to Numista!

It would help if you included a link to the token so we know what you're talking about. If you're sure you have the same token that doesn't have a picture of the reverse you certainly can upload your picture. It sounds like the numbers you're talking about are a serial number. If so, they shouldn't be listed as separate tokens. Can you upload pictures of your token and the link?
Here is the link and a picture of my item front and back.https://en.numista.com/catalogue/exonumia11580.html

Hello,
please load up your picture from Reverse.
You can upload your picture from Averse inside comments
To diver between the different numbers add a new year line and remark the number in remark field - please add number from existing one into the existing year line.

Thank you for your help

Were are there different numbers? I only see a wrong lettering on the page, the 9.

​I couldn't read the number on original picture.
Do I need new glasses?

Yes, the number is the same. Also, upload your obverse picture, too. It's much better than the current one.

Should I replace the obverse picture already there or?
thank you

Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins
Some examples, using that silver item ...

Home tab

I have already rotated the picture. Just above Resize button using the arrow on the left.
Each of those buttons does so many things! I show just what is in Bright, Color button -
pictures can be colour adjusted and very many other things.

Object tab

Another lots of choices. I use the T letter below the picture, which brings up
the adding of letters and numbers to put over a picture - not just vertical but ANY
angle (or colour or size or font you want). In that example I am putting TEST with
a letter in each corner, in orange colour. Done the last three, in various angles,
and showing the first letter in the middle of the picture, before I rotate and
drag it to the top left.

Crop tab

I show it in action, where I have already chosen Crop Round Image and have dragged the
circle to below and right, and then on left still need to drag it in, and above need to drag it up.
The areas to be cropped are outside the circle and are faded. When happy click on Save Cropped Area.

Tools tab

Showing below the picture the various choices, such as if there are people in it and a flash
was used, then Red Eye Correction removes that. And so on ...

So many many other parts not shown, and I have not yet used all of them. :)

GIMP is free and open source. I am still using version 2.8 because 2.10 is more complex.

​Did you cropped all the pictures I loaded into numista last months?
After only a few days after validating I have seen that the pictures were cropped.
From now on I try to upload only cropped pictures.

As I asked many years before:

It would be helpful if upload of png pictures works.

PNG is unnecessary big just transform your pngs into jpgs there are countless programs for that. If you use a mac it might even be implemented in the OS natively so you just have to rename them as I understand.

​Also allows transparency on backgrounds which might be not as desirable

​I did an experiment where I created a new coin page using .png files (which I changed the extensions to .jpg). The coin pictures uploaded OK with the .jpg extension but the thumbnails look like this on the coin page:

The black was the transparent part of the original files. Clicking on the thumbnails opens the picture without the black background.
Ok sorry about that I was not paying attention I will fix that asap.
