Hey SM, I am here to explain my previous edit. Bulba archives encourages to upload images with the png extensions instead of jpgs for the quality reason and it is also necessary to upload a transparent version (no whitish background) of an image. As you can see the major difference between these two images.

== 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.

::But I think I will need to experiment with the numbers to get the height to 60 pixels. I think the white padding and no B/W styled sprites have a purpose: to prevent other users thinking the images are from an external website, which would lead the Archives to be closed forever and the wikis wouldn't have any files.

Hello SnorlaxMonster. Nowadays I'm mostly playing this game and started to helping to edit responding pages. During my contribute I realized some missing icons, pictures and wanna upload them. However I dont have permission to upload any pictures. I hope you are the right person to ask permission to upload any pictures.

:Where did you get these icons and pictures from? We don't want to take images from other websites without their permission. If you obtained them yourself, or got permission from another website to use (e.g. users on the Spriter's Resource normally specify whether reuse is permitted, and whether it requires attribution), then they would be fine to upload. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 10:08, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

Is there a process to speed up specific image moving requests? I've noticed that [[:Category:Candidates_for_moving|there are many images]] that have been waiting to be moved for years now. This is troubling, since [[:File:Aster_Young_Zinnia.png|the particular image I've requested to be moved]] is currently promoting a speculation as a fact with its filename, and the longer it remains with the current filename the more confusion it will cause.

Hello! Just wanted to let you know — you might want to fix it on [[:Template:Menu sprite]]: "9" in Roman Numerals is actually "IX", not "XI" (which is 11)!
Also, on regular-Bulbapedia, should I quickly finish up my "making the neighboring mons' images show up in the header (if image files already exist for them)" thing for the last 30 Pokémon pages? I might just quickly finish it up before going to sleep just so everything's at least consistent (and there's no sign of speculative NatDex numbers on any individual mon's page) before I head to sleep lol [[User:Paintspotinfez|-Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspotinfez|talk]]) 09:31, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
== Image histories ==
Despite [[Special:Diff/843086|being informed]], [[Special:Contributions/BlueSparkles|this user]] has uploaded some images at a newer filename than existing images instead of uploading new versions of the existing images. Now, it is possible that since the images were named differently, the user simply did not know they existed, so I'll leave this part upto you, but in the meantime, would it be possible for you to merge the histories of [[:File:Ash Pikachu debut.png]] & [[:File:Ash choosing Pikachu.png]], and [[:File:Lillie choosing Snowy.png]] & [[:File:Lillie and Snowy meeting.png]] ? There may be some more instances than the ones I've found so far. Additionally, maybe all the files could be renamed to have a consistent naming system for all similar images?

:RE BlueSparkles: Could you be more specific about which images you believe are duplicates? [[:File:Cerise Kanto Starters.png]] and {{redlink|File:Kanto starters anime.png}} clearly are, but the others I wasn't immediately able to spot another version of.
:[[:File:Ash Pikachu debut.png]] & [[:File:Ash choosing Pikachu.png]] appear to be substantially different images showing different things, so I don't think it makes sense to merge them.

:::While the images I mentioned above do seem different, they are still from the same scene, which is why I believe they should be merged since it is not necessary for both images to be present separately. The images are used for the purpose of showing a character meeting their starter, and thus the newly uploaded frame might even fit better on the pages which had the old image. Hope that makes sense. →<small> [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTe]][[Special:Contribs/PikaTepig999|pig999]]</small> 19:29, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
::::While they are from the same scenes, they serve slightly different purposes. The Lillie images for example are both being used at the same time on the same page. For the Ash images, one depicts a move and the other does not. While I think you could make a case that one of each of those pairs is unnecessary as a separate image, I don't see them as being the exact same image. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 00:11, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
:::::I did feel that having both images is unnecessary, but if you think they can be allowed to remain, it is fine. →<small> [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTe]][[Special:Contribs/PikaTepig999|pig999]]</small> 15:22, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
:::::Additionally, if you can take a look at {{Cat|Candidates for deletion}}, there are a lot of renamed files that need their old file names deleted. Thanks. →<small> [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTe]][[Special:Contribs/PikaTepig999|pig999]]</small> 15:22, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
