Inaccurate Image[edit]

I noticed that the image used for this is for a different pirate mob. I've never uploaded or messed with images on the Wiki before, and would rather not risk it. I have screenshots of the Sniper; could someone either help me through the process of updating it, or do it for the page with the screenshots I took? If there's a reason for keeping the image as is, that's fine, but as it's a Sniper foe, the melee weapons with the current image do not match its combat. Thanks for any help and/or input!

We use existing images whenever a model in the game shares its appearance with other models, which most NPCs do. If the current image does not match to the one used in game (i.e. it's not a guy with two swords), you can remove the image = Veteran Jackdaw Kidnapper.jpg parameter from the infobox, upload an image of the Sniper at File:Cutthroat Sniper.jpg and it will appear on this page. —Ventriloquist 23:02, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
Thanks very much! Llarry is going to help me out with it later tonight or tomorrow :D I get really nervous with uploading images and doing it wrong. Muirellthe Moon Geode.png 03:28, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
Here are some guidelines to taking screenshots. You can also check the Guild Wars 2 Wiki:Projects/Shared Model Project to see if the NPC is the same as another and use image = filename.jpg to use that file. --BuffsEverywhere (talk) 04:04, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
