Guys big thanks for all the hard work since the launch of the graphics database. Fantastic start. Don't forget to add the team names if there missing as it's a big help 😁

I'll get it increased to a reasonably higher number than that. No this is purely a graphics database and a tool to update our logo packs. I've no interest in doing a real name fix to be honest.

The Bulk Upload system is now live. When selecting the Graphics Database you will now see the 'Bulk Upload' option available. Then you will need to select the logo type you wish to upload. Make sure not to upload your logos in the wrong category. Then simply upload the logos you have prepared. You will then need to select Game Ready or Unprepared. Once you do that, you will see a preview screen like below. Then simply submit your logos for approval. PLEASE READ THE BELOW INSTRUCTIONS - FILE NAMING IS ESSENTIAL. How to use Bulk UploadOpen Graphics Database and click Bulk Upload. Choose the entity type. Upload multiple image files at once. The system will read each filename and try to match it automatically to the correct record. Filename rulesUse the FM ID at the start of the filename: ID.png = Official IDalt.png or IDalt1.png = Alternative IDretro.png = Historical / Retro IDfantasy.png = Concept / Fantasy Examples: 600.png 600alt.png 600alt1.png 600retro.png 600fantasy.png After uploading, the system will show a preview screen with: the image the matched entity the detected graphic type the validation result Review the preview. If a file is marked Valid, it is ready to be submitted. If there is a problem, it will be shown in the Result column. Choose the submission status (Game Ready or Unprepared) and add a note if needed. Click Confirm Upload to submit the valid files. Only valid files will be submitted.

Yes that's correct but that's just the ideal minimum really as that's in-game size. If it is lower than 512px I would still encourage sharing the logo and I will attempt to improve it. It should still be marked unprepared. The bulk upload is now ready for testing. I will hold off for a day or two before testing and I will use John's pack to find any faults.

Thanks. Please don't include _club in any submission.

I would like to ask that anyone uploading graphics here, to please have another read of the above information I previously posted. 90%+ of everything I've received is perfectly fine but a lot of what I'm being asked was already posted here. Thanks 🙂

I'll check this out. 👍

You can report it in here or you can click on Graphics Database and select +New Entry. From there you can add the entity yourself.

Hi I would stick to the official logo of whatever entity it is i.e. club, nation, competition etc. No effects is best for me as I have to use that logo to create other styles. On the Tottenham logo I'll leave that for @kenolio as I believe he submitted it. Apologies if that's incorrect mate. On the stars, I would prefer none and have with stars as alternatives as it helps with sizing in-game. I know a lot of people will disagree with that as it goes against my earlier statement about official logos. Anniversary logos are typically placed in the alternatives folder but I'm sure there will be some as official. I would advise against this going forward. On club 85032632. Firstly there will be records in the database without names and in this case I'd ask anyone that spots one to simply add the name. Typically if a team changes it's name there is a new ID number for it, although this is not always the case. This will be on a case by case basis as every situation is different. My advise is to post about it in this thread as members normally would. People like @Markitos are SI researchers and can probably advise better than I. On the bulk upload, it's entirely up to you if you want to wait or not. I'm not rushing the developer on this as it's highly complex in how it behaves with our current database and upload model. I would be hopeful it's ready before the last update but I can't make any guarantees. It will need to be tested extensively before use. I know a few people have asked about it now but in truth very few people were actually sending me logos in bulk before adding this. Maybe 3. I would ask that you don't include any unneeded folders like 'small' please. I will give more guidance when the bulk upload system is ready. I would stick to my previous messages about what is a 'game ready' logo. No background, edges checked on a dark background, minimum of 512px, fully cropped, not 512x512 unless its circular or square and named the logo ID number only. No _club etc as I add that afterwards.

Yes is the short answer mate but I'm still testing the functionality of the system and some other new add-ons. You can now view your submissions by clicking on the main page of the "Graphics Database' and choosing 'My Submissions' in the top right hand corner. We will be editing it slightly to include an overview of all submissions but at the moment that's only available in the back end of the site. However, if you feel a logo is incorrect simply submit a new one and leave a note. Discussion can also be opened in here to discuss anything logo related. I'll make another post once all the new features are tested correctly.

REMINDER 👇 IMPORTANTFile naming is extremely important here. Please take the time to review the below setup and do not deviate from it. Official logos - should have ID number only i.e. 676.png Alternative logos - should have ID number and alt directly after it i.e. 676alt.png, 676alt1.png, 676alt2.png etc. Historical Logos - should have ID number and retro directly after it i.e. 676retro.png, 676retro1.png, 676retro2.png etc. Concept Logos - should have ID number and fantasy directly after it i.e. 676fantasy.png, 676fantasy1.png, 676fantasy2.png etc 🛑 ⚠️ DO NOT INCLUDE UNDERSCORES OR UNDERSCORE CLUB - 676_club ⚠️ 🛑 Once you have submitted your logo/s changes will be applied in the form of an update pack as usual. If you submit a logo with a background and its approved, you will see that background until I finish the updates and submit the game ready version.

FMG Graphics Database List of items in development. 1. Bulk Upload Implement a bulk submission system allowing members to upload multiple graphics at once, with automatic filename recognition, entity matching, validation, a preview before submission, batch status settings, and optional notes. This requires a new upload workflow and careful integration with the existing submission and approval system. 2. My Submissions / Upload History Add a submission history page where members can track their uploads, including approval status, rejection reasons, notifications, search filters, and submission statistics on their profiles. This would also include improvements to the ModCP, giving staff a more comprehensive overview of submissions, moderation history, reviewers, and date-based filtering. 3. List of Children / Hierarchy Expand the existing relationships between entities to provide a more complete hierarchy, from FIFA and confederations down to nations, competitions, and clubs. This includes competition levels, sorting, related entity listings, and displaying the appropriate logos. Some relationships already exist, which should help reduce the amount of development required. 4. Search Filters Extend the existing search functionality with additional filters based on the information available for each entity type, such as nation, competition, gender, and other relevant fields. The implementation will also need to account for database performance, particularly with large numbers of records.

Thanks @AndreaSSL1900 Once there is an ID number in the official FM database we can set up a new club by selecting '+New Entity' on the main page of the graphics database.

It's been a great start, thanks to all you guys. More visibility sorted soon but the submissions have been coming fast and in particular the team and competition details.

Not in this thread mate, post as many as you want. Are they teams that are not in our database or the FM database or both?

Yes please. Once their in the database we can add them then. Thanks mate.

They will need to be submitted individually mate for the moment until the bulk importer is ready. The file names should be without _club also. Feel free to add any kits too 😄

Bug Official Stadium Type - not displaying as Main Stadium.

Thanks guys. I have opened a suggestion thread and a separate bug thread in the area linked below. https://footballmanagergraphics.com/forum/68-fmg-graphics-database-discussion-section/

Thanks for the suggestions mate, they all make sense. The bulk upload is in the process at the moment and should hopefully be sorted by next week. The main reason for not waiting to go live with that option was to see how the file naming would go individually in terms of member use. At the moment it needs to be improved as some logos have been uploaded without the correct ID. I have fixed the ones that have been uploaded for now but after a week or so I'll simply reject them. The submission history is another add-on we can look at for sure. You should receive a notification about your submissions already but the other items we can develop for sure. There will also be small items such as submission totals in member profiles too.

Also please add any names which are missing in the Name section. It's big help. @AndreaSSL1900 I've created the stadium now. You can also create this yourself by clicking +New Entity. I'm not sure about the capacity so I didn't add it. Angelo Milardi (ID 43156019) https://footballmanagergraphics.com/graphics/record/240951-angelo-milardi/

I've been getting plenty of submission guys which is great thanks but please upload the images with the ID number as the name of the image as requested above. I will delete any that do not have the ID. IMPORTANT File naming is extremely important here. Please take the time to review the below setup and do not deviate from it.
