This meta-category is for categories of Commons users by bitmap graphics creation skills (i.e. original works, primarily illustrations such as schematics and digital paintings; for photo editing, see Category:Bitmap graphics editors).

This category should only contain other categories. Galleries should be in the corresponding categories instead. Files should be in a parent or subcategory.

You can list yourself in a suitable category by graphics ability by either adding the appropriate category to your user page, or by using one of the below templates, either individually, or as part of the {{Babel}} template, which groups them, such as: {{babel|BG-2|PH-1}}.

Please use the {{Babel}} template: {{babel|AF-2|BF-1}} OK and do not use the babel extension: {{#babel|AF-2|BF-1}}  Not OK The babel extension does not distinguish between upper case (majuscule) and lower case (miniscule), and the extension will interpret it as af-2 (Afrikaans, Level 2) and bg-1 (Bulgarian, Level 1). The pages will be placed into this Bitmap graphics editors category and Category:Audio file editors, but the Afrikaans Template:User af-2 and the Bulgarian Template:User bg-1 will be placed onto your user page.
