::Removing "dead space" down to the pixel cuts off the feathering on the black lines with these examples. It actively damages the artwork, the crop here is far too severe.[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 12:12, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

:::That I agree with, I always make sure to keep the feathering. But I double-checked and the Baxcalibur example I sent you perfectly follows that rule. Only the absolutely unnecessary parts are cropped, and the image is centered well, making sure that the Pokémon is more visible when used in templates (the majority of its use). My question remains: is cropping them (the ones from Zukan) OK if it doesn't touch/hinder the original artwork in any way? I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be. They were replaced by the user saying "At the moment, the artwork for Zukan is being used until Lewtwo re-uploads larger versions once he has time." That's clearly not happening any time soon, so in the meantime nothing stops us from going using cropped versions (like we have for over a decade and like most fan sites do), granted they are cropped perfectly. Once you are ready to re-upload them, you do that, but until then we should keep the appearances of consistent.
:::Don't take this the wrong way, I've been following you on Twitter, I have no issues with you, I just don't think there was enough open communication about this. [[User:Oneofthosedf|Oneofthosedf]] ([[User talk:Oneofthosedf|talk]]) 13:58, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
