In general, we also strive to use .jpg outputs as often as possible. Unless we request a transparent background for aesthetic reasons, we try to always go for .jpg and not .png. It's almost assured that .png images without a clear purpose are going to be deleted at some point. Thus I have entirely re-uploaded the image in a .jpg format. | In general, we also strive to use .jpg outputs as often as possible.

Now, if you actually have the episode that this image is pulled from, this might not be the best choice for an infobox. We usually want to have the main character's facing ''into'' the article. As an infobox is on the right side of a page, this means that we seek to use images that face left. I usually say that the ''very first'' thing that you want to search for in a good infobox/general article image is a facial expression that shows '''''personality'''''. I would say a fault in the image at the right, even after corrections and cropping, is that it's just a blank "Listening to the Doctor talk" face. Perhaps the actor only has this face, and I'm expecting too much of his performance, but it's an important topic to raise. However, god forbid, no one is asking you to watch any more of ''[[The Twin Dilemma (TV story)|The Twin Dilemna]]'' than you | Now, if you actually have the episode that this image is pulled from, this might not be the best choice for an infobox.

Finally, when you upload an image you're going to want to add the proper categories to help with sorting and finding images. In this case, I've added [[:Category:The Twin Dilemma TV story images]] and [[:Category:TARDIS interior images]] to both versions. | Finally, when you upload an image you're going to want to add the proper categories to help with sorting and finding images.
