Hello again. Seems you have a lot of questions. I'll try to answer all of them for you to have a clear idea. :)

Currently, we have more than 6,000 images. They are promo pictures or stills from the adaptations, photos of actors, or even the book covers. The pictures are sorted into numerous categories based on who/what is depicted in them. This way we can keep track of all the images we have and they can be browsed content-wise. There could be 2 versions of the same picture but imagine the amount of data in our galleries if all the 6,000 unique pictures were here multiple times. We aim to have every picture only once, in the best possible quality. We don't want unnecessary duplicates because of the website capacity.

If you use a picture from your computer (doesn't matter if in the comments or white editing a page), it is automatically uploaded to the Wiki.

Your picture would not have taken the place of its duplicate. It was just added as a completely new file. Because of that, I had to delete yours as we already had the picture in better quality on this Wiki. It is also included in the episode gallery. The Wiki algorithm cannot recognize similar pictures, but it can warn you if you attempt to upload exactly the same picture as we already have (the same resolution and quality) or if you want to upload a file of the same name as we already have. Every picture needs to have its specific name as we are not allowed to have two of the same name.

You CAN use pictures in your comments, although it is not very common here among our users. You can use any picture from our galleries you like. OR you can upload your own picture if we don't have it already. That's why our pictures are placed in the galleries and categories so you can easily find out if we have it or not.

Using pictures in the comments is not restricted based on the film adaptation. Feel free to use them.

I will edit your former comment using our picture so that you can have it there.
