I'd like to search for a pic of Obama for an Unnews I'd like to write, almost any would do the job, I don't want to upload a new one needlessly. Wat do? And how can I search "efficiently" in the archives? Thanks for the answer. Talk Mattsnow 13:28, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

I dunno. A few ways I use is to start writing the file name, like so [[File:Obama and underneath lots of options open up on the magic screen. Another thing is to go to the Barack Obama page, or if there is a category like Category:US President Images, and find some in there. Or better yet, you lazy bastard, just take your cell phone and photograph the guy yourself. What you do is run up to him and pull out the cell phone real quick, yell "Stand still Mr. President while I shoot a few", and that would do you proud. Aleister minutes later
LOL, you are amazing Aleister, on this slow morning on the job, a plane is just waiting to take me in! "Stand right there, Barry Soetoero, you are exposed!!!! Where is your birth certificate?" Thank you for the File:Whatever comes up tip, but I am more choosy! (Is that a word?) My English translation is off this morning (as you may or may not know, I am a Quebecer, therefore I always need a French-English app opened when I edit). I am trying to save 0.1 MB to the site, I'll do as you suggested (I'll lurk on the Obama article) And when I do upload a pic (if that happens) how do I categorize it to make our esteemed admins' life easier? (So much interrogations, I know) Talk Mattsnow 13:49, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
I dunno. The categories go on the bottom. There is a tool undeer "my preferences" somewhere named Hotcat that lets you do quick category additions, and that tool also comes with the title pop-up feature when you start to type. I like doing categories because I'm nuts, as well as realizing that someday this site will be more well-known and at that point having lots of well filled categories will be a value to the site. Or just nuts. When I type here I often have stuff playing in the background, and today I'm listening to Jerome Corsi on Alex Jones' show yesterday, and apparantly the fake Obama birth certificate released a couple of weeks ago was a set-up, a sting operation. But to me it's all pretty stupid, I mean, Obama had no choice in where he was born, so if this is a big secret in the guys life it's one that is of minimal effect once he took the oath of office from John Roberts. As for Quebec, it is a great place with French women that you don;t even have to travel to France to bag. Viva Quebecians! Aleister 13:58 25-5-'11
Women in Quebec are the greatest, and mine is the purest! LOL, a joke, I love her, I am happy! I am now almost 30.( Hence why I GTFO of editing ED in my sparetime!) I was kinda curious as to how old you are since you talked about Heaven's Gate. (I don't wanna be an ass, an approximation will do the trick!) There seems to be so much talented writers here who are adults, I jumped when I read Mimo was only 13! I felt old. I am having so much fun here! Talk Mattsnow 15:04, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
Wikia hates you, so there are no thumbnails in the searchresults [1] (MediaWki default has them [2]. We (at Kamelopedia) wrote our own image search in JavaMagic and Ajax-API-Voodoo [3]. The best option for Uncyclopedia seems to be using google image search to find Uncyclopedia-images ... -Nachteule 22:50, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
You could check Category:Barack Obama or Category:US President Images. You could do an advanced search of filespace, but it doesn't show thumbs. --Mn-z 23:05, May 25, 2011 (UTC)
You could also paint your own picture of Obama. Even a pencil sketch would be more creative than punching a couple of buttons and stealing someone else's work. Lazy bastard. And you ask how old I am. Ask your pure Quebecian wife, she'll tell you. hahahahahahah heeheeheeheehee hahahahahahhuh? Aleister 1:06 26-5-'11
