::::::::: I guess I don't share the opinion that the background and its imperfections are part of the artwork, if that was the case those imperfections would be present in other iterations of the official art and the background around the body of a given Pokémon would always be the same. We go up to the edges since it's pretty unambiguous. No need to count how many pixels we need to leave on each side, easy to center, makes the body of the Pokémon as visible as possible (which is more appreciated with every new generation and the increasing complexity of designs). As for future uploaders, it's something we can double-check from now on, as I intend to do with the previously uploaded, cropped Zukan versions. Out of curiosity, I replicated the aforementioned Baxcalibur crop, and got the exact same result. I find the pace of our communication a bit too slow for how little we need to talk about, is there a way to continue it on Twitter or Discord?

== Edit warring ==
Hi, I'm letting you know here that reverting an image several times like you did with {{redlink|File:HZ eyecatch 12.png}} is {{bp|edit warring}}. No matter your feelings about your rightness or anything, it's not appropriate for users to continually revert an image/page. Differences should be resolved through discussion, generally on a user talk page or on the talk page of the image/page in question, ''before'' they can devolve into an edit war. Please take care in the future. This is a blockable offense, but since you haven't been warned before, we'll leave it at that today.
I'm also going to ask that you take to heart the maxim "assume good faith". Your last reversion comment was quite aggressive. "Yelling" and demanding doesn't improve your arguments.
Thanks. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:45, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
== Image format again ==
Png is a preferred format compared to jpg. I suggest converting your jpg images to png before uploading them, thank you. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 14:41, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
* PNG is preferred for transparency and thumbnail quality, but for actual image quality, JPG format is far more integral to preserving high quality artwork under the 2MB limit. After this limit has been raised, I will continue to upload HQ JPGs in PNGs, which should hopefully be soon. I will not switch to a completely lossless file format if it requires an immense loss of detail in the first place.--[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 14:45, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
== Image Summaries ==
Hi just a quick reminder, but when you new images, please be sure to include a summary. All images uploaded to the Bulbagarden Archives should have them. It can be a generic one liner, but it should describe what the image is about, and where possible link to the relevant Bulbapedia article. Thanks!  '''[[User:4iamking|<span style="font-family:noteworthy;color:#FF1493">4iam</span><span style="font-family:papyrus;color:#8A2BE2">king</span>]]''' 14:13, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
:In relation: when uploading images, be sure that the categories you add are not red links, and that the rights templates you use are correct ones. Thank you. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:24, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
::Reminder: please remember the image summaries for your uploads. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 19:51, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
:::Categories cannot be simultaneously used in description and as categories. Also, there are templates that can be used in descriptions to add proper categories for you. For example, game locations have their own templates. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 22:20, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
::::Here is a list of templates you can to categorize new images: [[:Category:Summary_templates]]. When uploading, you can simply use a template directly from the summary field, and it will format the page correctly with the licensing.

:::::I repeat: categories in the description do not show up in the description. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:40, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
::::::The rights template is supposed to go into its own section below the summary. Simply add the desired summary, and then choose the rights template you want from the options below. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:40, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

::::::::In addition, categories go to the bottom of the page, not the summary section. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:52, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
:Instead of just SV in the image descriptions, you could probably write "Scarlet and Violet". --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:31, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
::You keep doing it with every game in all of your descriptions now. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:09, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
:::Apologies! When uploading images, I will write Pokémon X and Y instead of Pokémon XY, but I wasn't aware that it was a part of the manual of style for the archives--[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 15:13, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
== Deletions ==
If you are marking images for deletion, you should keep in mind that images '''cannot''' be deleted if they are used on Bulbapedia, if you are marking any image for deletion, please be sure that all uses on Bulbapedia are resolved. Additionally if the image serves a purpose on Bulbapedia, it shouldn't be marked for deletion if the issue is merely an image quality issue, including for upscaled images. Instead the <code><nowiki>{{bad image}}</nowiki></code> template should be added to the image until another image can be uploaded. Keep in mind the archives main purpose above all is to serve as an image depository for the wiki, and the wiki's needs need to be addressed first when considering deletions.  '''[[User:4iamking|<span style="font-family:noteworthy;color:#FF1493">4iam</span><span style="font-family:papyrus;color:#8A2BE2">king</span>]]''' 11:51, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
== Player icons ==
I noticed that you've uploaded the icons for selecting the player character's appearance at the start of the game. Would you be able to obtain icons for the XY and LGPE characters? Those are the only ones missing, and adding them would create a complete set. →<small> [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTe]][[Special:Contribs/PikaTepig999|pig999]]</small> 19:06, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
* I'll be able to do it when I have the time to, I'll get on it at some point. [[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 10:23, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
== Bank Animation ==
A bit confused by your latest images regarding bank animation, just for my own curiousity, can you explain what this is?--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 15:52, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
* I'm in the process of adding it to a page regarding animation terminology that I'm almost done writing. This was asked of me in the #species-format-ideas channel in the Discord.[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 15:54, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
== Marking images to be transparent ==
In case you were not aware, the template {{template|transparency needed}} exists, which also categorizes it accordingly. Hope it helps! →<small> [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTe]][[Special:Contribs/PikaTepig999|pig999]]</small> 08:06, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
