Proposed formats / the one I'm following until one is decided on. Motifs with multiple styles (blue/purple racial styles, Akaviri) subject to change because I haven't gotten there yet. –March 26, 2025

File NamesEdit

ArmorEdit

Prefix	Category	Sub-category	Motif	Weight	Tier	Body Type
ON	item	armor	Motif Name	Light Jerkin/Robe Medium Heavy	#	Male Female Beast Races

For styles with only weight, the weight is not included.

Weapons and ShieldsEdit

Prefix	Category	Sub-category	Motif	Weapon/Shield	Tier
ON	item	weapon	Motif Name	Axe Battle Axe Bow Dagger Greatsword Mace Maul Quiver Staff Sword	#
		armor		Shield

†Jerkin/Robe is not used for Beast Race images.

‡Not used if the motif only has one style.

±If the style's weapons has a visual effect when drawn, a separate quiver image is often needed. Otherwise, the bow and quiver can be shown in the same image.

Image FormatEdit

LightingEdit

Neutral lighting (eg. exterior in-game noon daylight with clear weather) with simple background preferred.

ArmorEdit

Images are taken with the character facing in four directions and ordered forward - back - left - right. Clockwise (forward - left - back - right) is also acceptable. Each angle is cropped to 1:2 and combined into a single image with a ratio of 2:1.

Argonian and Khajiit versions of the headpiece are also photographed. Each angle is cropped to 1:1 and ordered similarly to the non-beast race images, with the four Argonian images on the top row and four Khajiit images on the bottom. The final image is 2:1. If all three weights' headpieces are closed-faced, indicate the races in the caption.

Using the inventory or character sheet windows is preferred, as it standardizes the framing and adds additional neutral lighting.

Weapons and ShieldsEdit

Ratio is 1:1.

Two-handed weapons, bows, and shields worn on back unless alternate angle is needed (visual effect when drawn, etc.). One-handed weapons photographed when drawn.

Staves can be photographed worn or drawn. If the character holding the staff is short, they may need to stand on an elevated surface so the bottom end of the staff is not cut off by the ground.

Further ConsiderationEdit

NamingEdit

Numbers may get confusing if more than one image for motifs with multiple weapon styles.

Potential alternatives:

ON-item-armor-Khajiit Light Robe Tier 1 Female.jpg

ON-item-armor-Khajiit Tier 1 Light Robe Female.jpg

OtherEdit

Beast Race Styles

I'm currently separating the beast race headpieces from the rest regardless if the style is associated with a beast race for simplicity.
Eg. Anequina is photographed with a human even though it's a Khajiit style.
