| 6 | # Image Server |
||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | Image servers are quite demanding, so we are looking for rather central solutions that all communities can use instead of running an image server for every community. |
||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | For small images the [[CommunityWebsites]] can be used (for example through Drupal image galleries). |
||
| 11 | |||

| 14 | ## Morphbank |
||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | For larger images in particular but also for images in general we recommend to use http://www.morphbank.org. |
||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | Images and thumbnails can be embedded in any website. A zoomable viewer for larger images exists too, but currently can only be used from the morphbank site itself. The service is free. |

| 21 | Information about the API and further plans can be found on TDWG: |
