Excuse me, Eridanus... I'm trying to upload an image for a recently released video game, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon as a matter of fact, but it seems I lack permission to do this action. Can you help me with this? --[[User:IM-T-MAN2|IM-T-MAN2]] ([[User talk:IM-T-MAN2|talk]]) 23:01, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

:Since Super Mystery Dungeon is still fresh when it comes to English langauges, you may want to talk with someone [[Archives:Staff|else]]; like someone from the Council. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 15:36, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

== Converting AVI files into APNG files ==
I have a huge question I'd like to ask you. What do you use to convert .avi files into animated .png files? I tried using VirtualDub APNG Mod and it came up with some errors while importing the .avi (since I recorded it from 3DS Capture software). Then I accidentally overwritten one of the screenshots that I had of one of the Adventure Hints from Gates to Infinity and lost it. I have several .avi files that I'd like to make into animated .png files. Thanks!—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 07:56, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
:I've been using Adobe Photoshop, but it's outdated as it stopped working past certain versions of QuickTime (which was needed). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 11:28, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
::Ah okay, thanks! Also, do you know any way I can make the Animated PNG smaller than 2MB? 'Cause the upload won't allow file sizes larger than 2MB.—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 13:21, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
:::I suggest using [https://sourceforge.net/projects/apng/files/APNG_Optimizer/ this] on {{tt|a finished APNG|once put through the program, doing anything than changing frame delay messes up the animation}} to make the file smaller. Remember also about the first frame that shows the animation for browsers that don't support these, like [[:File:Powder Snow II.png|here]].

::::I just tried this on an APNG file that I made which demonstrated the effects of a Slumber Trap in Gates to Infinity, but it certainly didn't decrease the file size in any way. Also I'm pretty sure APNG Assembler Version 2.9 has compression built into it.—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 16:00, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
:::::It worked for me, all the way from Red and Blue to Black and White (the linked animation of move has original file not compresse, hence size of ~500KB). I am not sure why it doesn't work you. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 16:34, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
::::::Then I wonder what I could be doing wrong? I extracted all the frames from an .avi, and I then used APNG Assembler 2.9 to create an Animated PNG out of it. I had Play indefinitely enabled and Skip the first frame disabled in Playback Settings. The Compression Method is 7zip with 15 iterations, while Optimize Palette and Optimize color type are both enabled. The Delay Settings for all frames is set to "1"/"30" seconds. If you'd like, you could see what is wrong with the frames, here it is: http://www.megafileupload.com/6rgv/top_and_bottom_screen.zip —[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 16:45, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
:::::::I have put it through {{tt|two optimizations|first from a program to make it APNG, that didn't crash from files this big, then through that program}}, and while it cut a lot of megabytes (raw animation is about 30MB), it's still not below 2MB (about 2.4MB instead).

::::::::When I used APNG Assembler to make the APNG, it seemed to work fine without any crashes. Then I put it though APNG Optimizer, and exported file was still the same size. Is there something I'm doing incorrectly?—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 18:29, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
== Red's house ==
Can you upload images for Red's house in GSC (and possibly HGSS) for the {{bp|player's house}} article? Thanks in advance. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 02:30, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
== About the Generation II Curse PNG animation ==
I'd just like to let you know that the file that you uploaded for the move Curse from Generation II is broken and is not looping as it should. You might need to fix it. Thanks!—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 04:50, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
== Duel images ==
Are you able to get decent images of the avatar customization options in Duel? And of the Gem packets in the shop? [[User:Glik|Glik]] ([[User talk:Glik|talk]]) 13:35, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
:I'll see what I can do. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 15:43, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
== Autoconfirmed ==
Hi, I tried to upload a file but was surprised to find I am not autoconfirmed. I have 300+ edits at Bulbapedia and have been a member of Bulbagarden since 2007. I had a look at the "to-do list" to see if there is something I can help out with at Archives, but most of the "to-do"s are about uploading images, which I'm not able to do! Can you advise me on how to resolve this problem? [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] ([[User talk:Kidburla|talk]]) 09:57, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
==Move Requests==
Hi, I've made a few name mistakes when uploading images, could you move Eating Competition Heatmor.png to Eating Contest Heatmor.png and Goh Skwovet Bullet Seed.png to Goh Skovet Bullet Seed.png please--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 21:32, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
:Done. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 21:59, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
