+Thank you for reporting an issue.
+
+Follow these guidelines to ensure your issue is handled properly.
+
+If you have a ...
+
+1.  **General question**: consider asking the question on Stack Overflow
+     with the python-imaging-library tag:
+
+    * https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/python-imaging-library
+
+    Do not ask a question in both places.
+
+    If you think you have found a bug or have an unexplained exception
+    then file a bug report here.
+
+2.  **Bug report:** include a self-contained, copy-pastable example that
+    generates the issue if possible. Be concise with code posted.
+    Guidelines on how to provide a good bug report:
+
+    * https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve
+
+    Bug reports which follow these guidelines are easier to diagnose,
+    and are often handled much more quickly.
+
+3.  **Feature request:** do a quick search of existing issues
+    to make sure this has not been asked before.
+
+We know asking good questions takes effort, and we appreciate your time.
+Thank you.
