:Hey, don't worry about it. I know you have a valid point. I have found that you can compress pngs, but that unfortunately takes a very long time. The Archives' rules and policy aren't that clear, and until we have something set in stone, I'm not sure what I should say or do. I would like to point out though, that extremely hi-res images are unnecessary, since these resolutions are meant for print. And in a way, it seems to be catering to and making it easier for people who pirate games and things along that line. As you can see, on Wikipedia, images aren't that hi-res because they claim fair use, and it isn't fair to Nintendo and other companies if we're uploading such extremely hi-res images. But I know these rules and policies don't apply here, so I'm just waiting on official word from higher ups. So as you can see, I was trying to go for a middle ground in terms of fair use. If you have any suggestions, I'm sure other administrators wouldn't mind hearing it. Thanks.

::The thing is, with these images... they came directly from Nintendo. Anyone can access them (yes, username and password are needed, but all I did was email the PR guy and he gave them to me). Plus, Nate is happy with high-res, just not high-res scans, like cards (as they're not that big originally).--'''[[User:Immewnity|<span style="color:#88AADD">''immewnity''</span>]][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 22:15, 29 June 2010 (UTC) | ::The thing is, with these images... they came directly from Nintendo.

...but the new rules are maximum resolution of 1080, not 1084, as you've done on multiple images. (probably confused it with 1024)--'''[[User:Immewnity|<span style="color:#88AADD">''immewnity''</span>]][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 01:01, 2 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
