HGSS images
They should be png, taken from a 1x windowed game window, and please do not use the COMPLETELY unofficial English patch when taking pictures with text. Thanks. UltimateSephiroth 18:07, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
Screenshot licensing
When adding a licensing tag to anime or game screenshots, please avoid just choosing "Screenshot". This is not descriptive and places the images in the wrong category. Make sure to choose "Screenshot from a Pokémon game," or "Screenshot from the Pokémon anime." This will put them in the right categories, and will lessen the workload of people trying to clean up the Archives. Thanks. --MaverickNate 19:06, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
Hi
Please read the checklist when you upload media files, and be sure to tag and categorize all images. If you're confused about the requirements for uploading files, have a look at this guide. --—darklordtrom 02:37, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Image names
Also remember to use sensible image names. File:1254450713853.JPEG is not an acceptable name. Also, JPEG files are more often than not low quality. Please make images in png format instead. These are preferred. —darklordtrom 02:37, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- But it's a start though. Follow the rules, and you'll be fine. ht14 02:41, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- As one of the admins said, please upload your pics in .png, not .jpg or any other type of file. .png is preferred because it is a higher quality picture format. And categorize your images, by doing this: Category: so-and-so with 2 ['s and 2 ]'s on the corresponding side. It is important that you do that. --Hmdwgf 07:28, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, and for a good reason. But I'm not part of this whole thing, I just run my own operation while conceding to the sensical rules here. Anyway, the .png letters should be more lowercase, but that's not as important as making sure you upload pics with no logos or sprites on them. And the one you just uploaded (Chikorita's Sweet Scent) was very poor quality and did not show the actual attack, only the frames right before the attack. --Hmdwgf 21:55, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Sprites
Good job in uploading shiny game sprites. And it would be better if you place summary template like what I did here. Thanks, Kevzo8 03:10, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
