I made a video of Astonish from XY, which I first saved as a .mp4 (~1MB). Because after searching around I didn't find a program with which I could convert .mp4 to animated .png, I created a sequence of .png files (alltogether ~11MB) and then used the program, APNG Assembler, to convert that into an animated .png file - which then was 8MB. Obviously this is way to big.  Is there anything I did wrong? Or is there another way I totally missed? - [[User:Mr. Flix|Mr. Flix]] | [[User_talk:Mr. Flix|My talkpage]] 00:34, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

:Hi. Great to see we have someone else who can help us with XY images! I'd need to know the details of your 8 MB file. Is there a site you could save it in? Imgur, Photobucket or any image sharing site, I would like to see what you have so far. Do you capture and animate both screens? Because we only need the superior screen and if you're capturing both, you can save a lot of space by cropping the files.

::Have you used APNG optimizer? It helps reducing the file's size, by removing redundant parts (You should do it at the very end, though, as {{tt|editing|Changing speed of the frames seems to be fine, though, at least on what I've been using.}} an optimized animation makes it messy, due to the way program works).  For example, [[:File:Fire Blast PMD RB.png|this file]] was about 536KB before it went through optimization. You should also include a first frame in the animation that's skipped in the actual animation (as I've done in the file, which is reflected by thumbnail), for the browsers that do not support anipng. Also, I am assuming you've used the 3DS capture card, right? If yes, you'll probably be asked by staff member to upload a specific screenshot, presumably a nicknamed Bulbasaur, as a proof of having it{{tt|.|Unless you've already done that, then... &quot;Doh!&quot;}} [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 08:22, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
