You know a group that's not listed...

AniDB is a user driven database and every user can add new groups. So if you know a group that's not yet in AniDB, we encourage you to add it. We also ask you to include as much info as possible when adding a new group, it's for all users' benefit.

Where can I add groups?

You can find the add group link at the bottom of the grouplist. Once you click it you're on the "Add Group" page. There's a lot of info you can input here.

Basic info you should include when adding a group

Name

Name of the group.
for example: AnimeOne

Shortname

The tag of the group
for example: AonE

Optional Info

We'd like you to add this info sooner or later to the episode since some other users will benefit from your work.

URL

A link to the group's website. Do not enter their BT tracker URL here! For further info refer to our Linking guideline.

Email/IRC data

Official email address of the group.

Pic

The PIC ID allows you to add a picture for this group. It will be displayed together with the group info. To add it, first you have to use the Upload a Pic function to upload a picture directly from your HDD to the AniDB server. The function generates short image IDs such as 1234.jpg. After uploading a picture, copy this image ID as-is into the PIC ID field.

  • The recommended size for pictures is 300x400.
  • Don't use animated pics.
  • There is no size limit, but the picture should stay under 100KB, if possible.

If the pic is a banner with a size of 500x200 the suggested solution besides resizing is to rotate it by 90°!

Description

Add a short description of the group or other important information, like primary subbing language to this field. No personal comments, please!
