Here's to a new level of sharing!

Adding to the library

FYI

  • At the moment, anything you add is just a click away from being downloaded, so if that concerns you, don't add your file.

Scanning/Formatting/Uploading

  • If you lack a scanner:
    • I have successfully scanned books with an iphone and ipad via TinyScanner
  • Upload pdfs as you would image files via Upload under "Toolbox" from the navigation column
  • Here is the basic format for inserting a pdf file:
    • [[File:my-little-pony-adventure-book.pdf|page=1|1000px]]

Below however I have linked the pdf directly to a jpg of the book itself for now.
