== Error(s) in anime head images ==
If a particular head image also happens to contain an animation/colouring error, is it still okay to leave that image as it is, or should a replacement be located instead? [[:File:XY125.png]] has a colouring error which the Bulbapedia article also points out. [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 12:29, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

::Thanks for the clarification. I have uploaded a replacement. A bit of a shame, though; I personally thought that the previous revision was one of the better ones that were relevant to the episode title. [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 14:36, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
== Upload permission ==
Hello, SnorlaxMonster. About six months ago, my permission to upload Generation VI move images was revoked, and I'd like to personally apologize for abusing my upload power. In the six months that I've had to reflect upon my actions, I've certainly learned my lesson and will never abuse any power or permission I'm given ever again. But onto the main point, I remember you said that me being able to upload move images again "wasn't something for the foreseeable future", and since that's vague, and it's been, again, six months, I just thought I should ask if my permission could be re-granted (especially since Generation VII is being release very soon). If not, then I'd appreciate it if you could tell me what I need to do to be able to get it re-granted. Again, I'm sorry for all the trouble I may have caused you, and I have learned my lesson (specifically, to never upload move images from channels I wasn't given permission from). Thanks for listening :) [[Special:Contributions/Mikoro|<font face="Lucida Handwriting" size="2" color="#FF0000">I am</font>]] [[User:Mikoro|<font face="Comic Sans MS" size="2" color="#00FF33">Mikoro</font>]] ([[User talk:Mikoro|wanna talk?]]) 19:39, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

== File:Stadium GS JP boxart.png ==
I noticed that [[:File:Stadium GS JP boxart.png|this image]] which you uploaded in 2012 appears to be a promotional flyer rather than the actual box art. I own a boxed copy of the game and could scan it (the background is metallic and won’t scan well, but there doesn’t seem to be any better image of the box art available). Before I do, do you want to move the existing image to a different name? —[[User:Háčky|Háčky]] ([[User talk:Háčky|talk]]) 01:42, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
:Huh, you're right, that certainly does appear to be a poster rather than box art. I've moved it (although I'm not sure where it would get used), so please go ahead and upload the actual box art. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 03:24, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

:Could you take a screenshot at a better resolution than 180 x 101? The other WTP images are all much higher resolution than that (for example, [[:File:WTP SM004.png]] is 1,280 × 720 pixels). CITV is definitely not going to be airing episodes at 180 x 101, so I don't know why you're making them so small. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:17, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

== Image getting cut off upon upload? ==
I noticed that [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:XY_Pre-order.png this image] was missing a segment at the bottom, [http://imgur.com/9LFb1tu visible here] (note where it says "detachable base"), so I tried to upload the uncut version. However, for some reason the image I put up was automatically cut, so the missing segment is missing again. When comparing the "full" and "cut" versions, it also seems like the margins on all sides have been cut (notice the right tip of the 'Y' is cut", so maybe the image was automatically zoomed in?
I don't think this was caused by the image being too large dimension- or data-wise, as the new version is only 800x566 and 239KB. Both new and old versions are in png, so a format conflict doesn't seem to be it, either. Any idea why this is happening, and how I can fix it? --[[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 00:59, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
:I think it was just that the cache hadn't updated yet. Right now, the Archives image seems to perfectly match the Imgur link. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 01:42, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

== Reducing data size of png files? ==
I found [http://imgur.com/qxzH0bs these] [http://imgur.com/tYu1tXn two] images, and I'm pretty sure they should be uploaded in png format. Their dimensions are fine but their data sizes are too big, at 2.85MB and 2.5MB respectively. How do I reduce their data sizes? Converting them to jpg's seems to work, but since these aren't photos/scans I don't think that would be appropriate. --[[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 19:06, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
:I downloaded and resaved them in GIMP and they dropped to 1.52 MB and 1.74 MB respectively. Have you tried that?

== EP001 remastered ==
Hi. I already said this on [[User talk: Kogoro#EP001 remastered|Kogoro's talk page]], but didn't get an answer. I have the {{bp|EP001}} remastered in Blu-ray quality. The original resolution is 1440x1040. I wanna upload 51 shots of it, but I have one question. Should I upload them at their original resolution or should I resize them to 1280x924? If the original resolution is preferable, there are 7 shots that are between 2.01 and 2.17MB, making it impossible for me to upload them (I've already runned them on {{bp|smw:User:Wildgoosespeeder/PNG Monstrous|PNG Monstrous}}). I'd like to upload them at their original resolution considering that the 1280 limit is only a recommendation, but there is the size problem. I can also upload some of them so you can see if the quality is worth the size. I plan on doing whatever you think is the best. --[[User:RafaelGN|RafaelGN]] ([[User talk:RafaelGN|talk]]) 20:13, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
:Images uploaded to the archives shouldn't exceed 1280px in their maximum dimension. (We make exceptions for game maps, but not anime screenshots.) If you want to upload them, please keep them within that limit.
:I personally use [https://nikkhokkho.sourceforge.io/static.php?page=FileOptimizer FileOptimizer], which provides really compact (but slow) lossless PNG compression (among other things). See if you can get them under 2 MB using that. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:38, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

== Uploading 3DS screenshots ==
Hi! I'm currently uploading and upgrading multiple screenshots for Generation VII moves. One user noticed me about informing one member of the council before doing that and I'm sorry if I didn't before. Can I go on with my uploads? Do I need to provide some sort of proof to demonstrate I'm not stealing material from third parts?

:We make sure that users do actually have the ability to take 3DS screenshots before giving them permission to do so, in order to prevent taking images from other sites.

== Separate shiny images for Diancie and Mega Diancie (for use on long-overdue Diancie usertag) ==
Given that you uploaded [[:File:Shiny Diancie Mega Evolution.png]], can you please carefully extract the Shiny Diancie and Shiny Mega Diancie images from the background and upload them as individual, transparent-background images of the same size as their non-shiny Global Link counterparts ([[:File:719Diancie Dream.png]] and [[:File:719Diancie Mega Dream.png]])? I am trying to make a usertag for Diancie using the Dream images (because Diancie has no Black/White-style sprites) and want to accommodate both Shiny and Shiny Mega images into the coding. I cannot use the Spr_6x_, Spr_6o_, or Spr_7s_ images because they have too much transparent padding around and the MediaWiki software does not allow for cropping images invoked using the <code><nowiki>[[File:image.png|size]]</nowiki></code> construct.
