There were a few pics eariler that I uploaded that replaced the ones you uploaded. They were squeezed, real bad quality and had logos on the bottom. This is a big problem because of copyright issues. But anyway, there's something you should know if you intend to upload any pics from Pokémon movies in the future. The frame ratio (width of the picture divided by the height) of a pic from a Pokémon movie has to be 1.78 or something close to that. Such as: 854x480, 712x400 and so on and so on. And please don't upload pics with even a partial logo on them. Keep both those things in mind. But other than that, good job so far categorizing and uploading .png pics. --[[User:Hmdwgf|Hmdwgf]] 20:42, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

== Filenames ==
Please don't upload files with names that contain nonalphanumeric filenames.  Such filenames can cause problems for the server.  Especially problematic are images that have macrons in their names--even before the no-nonalphanumeric policies, it was well known that characters such as macron-equipped vowels, chiisai-Us, gender symbols, and the like cause database errors and, as such, made easy targets for deletion.  Make sure that any filename you upload contains only alphanumeric characters (any letter or number, as well as the space, underscore, and standard dash) from now on.  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:33, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
