::no, im pretty sure it was absolutely horrible. honestly, a lot of the stuff youre uploading is. whats with the horrific saturation? and im not even referring specifically to the stuff you uploaded by yourself (ie: all of the Mebukijika forms) but i see that in some spots you have reverted good artwork in favor of saturated crap. whats that about? -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]]<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>[[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 00:21, 21 November 2010 (UTC) | ::no, im pretty sure it was absolutely horrible. honestly, a lot of the stuff youre uploading is. whats with the horrific saturation? and im not even referring specifically to the stuff you uploaded by yourself (ie: all of the Mebukijika forms) but i see that in some spots you have reverted good artwork in favor of saturated crap. whats that about? -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]]<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>[[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 00:21, 21 November 2010 (UTC) | ||
:::Lemme find my convo with Jello. | |||
Jello: did you find out what the problem was with the saturation? | |||
immewnity: As I've stated on my talk, to Nate, and to DETH, it's my PDF extractor, but I can't find a better one. What are you using? | |||
Jello: well...you know, you can just select the image and copy it, you don't need any special tools. lol | |||
immewnity: true, but usually there's a black background around them. there aren't any in this case? | |||
Jello: not for me there isn't. nope | |||
immewnity: =-O see, I've been using Some PDF Image Extractor for other PDFs that have transparent images, and so I'm just kinda used to that. | |||
Jello: oh well. but how did you not notice that the colours were off? | |||
immewnity: some still have to be combined, though, right? | |||
Jello: yeah the combining part is easy | |||
immmewnity: I noticed the color problem. I just didn't know how to fix it. Little did I know, I was doing it the hard way. | |||

:ok fine, but it still doesnt explain where you reverted good images for bad. take [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:539Dageki.png Dageki] for example. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]]<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>[[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 00:41, 21 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
::The older ones were scans from CoroCoro, and we have typically gone for other sources other than scans due to the leftover blurs and such left by scanning.

:::some of those leftover scans were much better than the pdf rip. next time, dont bother with where its from, go for the best quality. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]]<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>[[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 01:08, 21 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Could ya' give me a hand == | |||
I would only ask this to an admin, and I want to know, what are the best sources for files? How do I upload a file, because when I try to upload a file, it says to see how to upload a file, go to the [[FAQ]]. But then it says see here, which is the exact same place I began with!

:Magnedeth probably won't be here to answer this, so I might as well provide a brief explanation. | |||
:When you upload a file, you have a Destination Filename (what the image you are uploading will be called), a summary box, and a licensing box. In the summary box you enter a concise description of the image as well as any categories you want to tag the image with (e.g. [[:Category:Status ailments]], [[:Category:Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]). If there is a set template for the summmary (e.g. {{template|Mv}}, {{template|anipng}}), then the categories will automatically be added. For the licensing, choose the tag which best fits the description of the image. | |||
:The best sources for images are almost certainly scans, photographs, and the like taken or extracted by you. Failing that, you can use sources that are not copyrighted, although you should give credit if it doesn't say not to. DO NOT use other fansites like Serebii, unless it has been explicitly stated that they have given you permission to use them. | |||
:I would also suggest not asking Magnedeth in the future, as he isn't very active on the archives. I would suggest asking staff members like {{u|Kogoro}} or {{u|Maverick Nate}}, as they are much more likely to provide a quicker answer. I'm not a staff member, but I can give you the basic information about this site.--[[User:Chalkwriter|<span style="color:green">Chalk</span>]][[User talk:Chalkwriter|<span style="color:red">writer</span>]] 20:44, 15 April 2012 (UTC) | |||
