*Please '''read''' the checklist when you upload media files. The checklist is there to make sure you are doing everything necessary when uploading said media files.
tuo
*Be sure to '''[[Archives:Tagging images|tag]]''' and '''[[Archives:Manual of style#Categories|categorize]]''' all images. This helps organize the vast amount of images we have here.
tuo
*Check if your image already exists by searching through categories, and Bulbapedia pages. This action will help prevent unnecessary duplicates from appearing.
tuo
*When adding a licensing tag to anime or game screenshots, please avoid just choosing "Screenshot". This is not descriptive and places the images in the wrong category. Make sure to choose "Screenshot from a Pokémon game," or "Screenshot from the Pokémon anime." This will put them in the right categories, and help keep the Archives clean.
tuo
*Does your image have a purpose? Will you be using it on a Bulbagarden Project? Avoid uploading images because you think they are "Cute" or "Awesome". That clutters the Archives.
tuo
*Personal images are limited to two for each User. Personal images include personal logos, personal trainer sprites, drawings, trainer cards and mostly any image that would only be used in the User: namespace and have no encyclopedic value to Bulbagarden and its affiliates. Please tag these with the {{template|i-Personal}} template for easier organization. Under no circumstance should a photograph of one's self ever be uploaded onto Bulbagarden Archives.
tuo
*In addition, please upload images with meaningful names. Names that are just numbers, for example, do not describe anything about the image, and can make it difficult for searchers. Names are just as important as licenses and categories, so make them descriptive. Please be sure that the filenames contain alphanumeric characters only.
tuo
*Due to the many automated templates used on the wiki, lowercase extensions are imperative. That means jpg and png instead of JPG and PNG. It looks cleaner, it works better, and it does not cause any problems. Make sure to always use lowercase extensions.
tuo
*If you're confused about the requirements for uploading files, have a look at [[:File:BulbaArchives Howto.png|this guide]].

One thing I forgot to tell you, make sure the first frame of the animation is set at 0ms (set it to skip this first frame) and actually has a shot of the move in action so that people without APNG support can at least see the move, instead of just a normal looking screen. <span style="color:red">—<small>♥</small></span> <b>[[User:Jello|<span style="color:orange;">Jello</span>]][[User Talk:Jello|<span style="color:#3FA9D0;"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</b> 17:09, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

I tried to upload animated version of [[:File:Selfdestruct III.png|SelfDestruct]] but... damn, upload does nothing... It says "waiting for achives.bulbagarden.net" or what the hell it said... After page finishes "loading", I am still on upload page...this equals to wasting time. Also, there is way to decrease file size? 97 frame animation's size is 2,45 MB...

I don't know HOW, but I got 19 (NINETEEN[!]) frames on Tackle in Generation I, with ONLY 3(!!!) being animation, the other 16 is "yyy used xxx!" What the hell? [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 19:09, 8 April 2011 (UTC) PS.Shortness of some moves is reallly suprising... Wait... TWO. TWO frames of move (that removed is the very begginning of blinking after being hit)... o_O{{unsigned|Marked +-+-+}}
tuo
:Yes, I was the one, I'm trying to check if you follow the same procedure I have done, it seems that you do, you don't have to worry about the file size, however, if some of them exceeds the 2 MB limit, give it to me so I can upload it instead. Also, for steadiness, I'd ask you to rather follow a move list in alphabetic order, pick a generation and start from Absorb 'till last move, please. That way, it's easier for us to track which ones aren't moving or the ones that need an animation, you should check the moves list in Bulbapedia for an accurate listing, click to toggle the Generation one, and do that one and the previous ones (if that's the case).
tuo
:And don't be surprised for the frames, remember that Generation I was pretty simple on moves + everything white + shitty graphics, especially with Tackle and Leer, by far the most basic moves.

It's animation in Generation I is very fast... I will have to skip it, at least for now... Still Counter is biggest problem, as for now, I have how it works in this generation I...

:::When I say "slow down", I'm talking about the frames, add some FPS until you deem the animation accurate.

Also, Trainer Hunter, your files are too fast. Gonna have to slow 'em down, to around 35~45 ms per frame, check Memento for example. Look how fast that goes, you can barely read what it says. Also, the file needs the final frame to be of at least a second long, to be able to tell better when the animation ends.

:::::::::Er... well, this is a pickle.  I'm recording them at the same speed the game plays, and I don't press a thing (So the text autocancels by itself).  The only difference I guess is that I set the ingame text to fast.  Since I thought people would want to see the move in action or something.  And I haven't had a problem reading the text.  So... I guess I'll wait to see what you have to say then.  I won't be looking forward to remaking 100+ animated PNGs, though.  I've been at this the past few days while I had no internet and it kinda sucks to see that they're all obsolete.  Are there some animation guidelines on the site anywhere so I can check? {{unsigned|Trainer Hunter}}
::::::::::Sorry about the sudden new comment, but I just realized a few things.  Like how I can just set up examples to help things along.  Do you like [http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/8885/firefangmidopt.png mid speed] or [http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/7817/firefangslowopt.png slow speed]?  I'm probably not gonna set up the text speed like that for the move announcement since, you know.  People know the move by the time they see the image.  And as far as I've seen every other image doesn't scroll the text on the move announcement.  But I'll change up the text speed for any image I've made that involves text that pops up after the move (like for status moves).  I'm NOT changing the animation speed though.  16ms is the exact same speed the game plays, and I've done side-by-side comparisons between the PNGs I've made and my own game.  I'd like to keep the animation speed the same as the game for accurate re-enactment.  Also I don't like that second-length pause.  It's kinda long and disorienting.  Though I guess to some that sudden shift would be disorienting.  Still, I personally think the shift is a pretty good transition myself (Especially since the game usually has some frames or even a second of cooldown before the damage flash) but eh, you're the mod, not me.  Anyhow, I've given my examples and said my thoughts so now I'd like to see what you say before I change or don't change any of the masses of images I've got here. - [[User:Trainer Hunter|Trainer Hunter]] 22:31, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
::::::::::::Well, some will need to be remade, but I can back you up on those. Regarding the animation guidelines, there isn't one written, but:
::::::::::::*Frame speed should range between 30~40 ms, in doubt, just ask and show proof.
::::::::::::*Last frame should have a pause of 1000ms.
::::::::::::*Text speed should be normal.
:::::::::::::*The text is automatic, even if you don't press any button, the text will go through after a certain amount of time, so let it flow.
:::::::::::::*Same goes for the animation for the stats either going up or down.
::::::::::::*Every file shall have a first frame for browsers that do not support animated png.
::::::::::::*With certain exceptions, the last frame should be the first one that shows the foe's information after the Pokémon attack.
:::::::::::::*Moves that attack consecutively, for example.
::::::::::::*Animations with attacks that hit several turns later should not include the foe's move unless the move used by the Pokémon gets benefits from it (i.e.: {{m|Bide}}).
::::::::::::All I can think of at the moment. Also. I have that speed because that's what people with the game and the console had advised me, I've shown them countless images, and they say the speed I did is good enough, so that's why I'm suggesting it. Although a person I'm asking about this says it's fine, but PsychicRider tells me that yours are too fast (he has both games and a console), and that they should be slowed down. Plus he agrees that it's better to have it slower so people can read whatever the text is.

:::::::::::::Hm, well, I guess if that's what the higher-ups say, I can't go against it.  Anyhow I whipped up a quick speed test [http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/4693/firefangtestopt.png right here], what do you think?  This is at 30ms.  And again, the text letter entry stating the move is only there so I can demonstrate the text speed.  By the way, what do you mean by "the foe's information after the pokémon attack"?  The health bar?  Or something else? - [[User:Trainer Hunter|Trainer Hunter]] 00:40, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

::Frame settings?  I don't know what you mean by that.  And I admit I didn't see the life bar freeze on any image before today so eh, I guess I'll just have to replace everything I uploaded too.  Anyhow, here's some [http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/3584/firefang20opt.png 20ms] and [http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/2535/firefang25opt.png 25ms] examples.  Once I have a speed confirmation I can get started on re-recording all hundred-something images I've made.  Tomorrow.  Because I'm kinda tired today. - [[User:Trainer Hunter|Trainer Hunter]] 02:03, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
:::Oh, one more thing since this seems wrapped up after the speed is decided.  I know this is kinda unrelated (But I don't want to start a new topic line while we're still in discussion here), but I don't want to forget to ask about this by the time I do this.  How would I handle putting the multiple variations of 5th gen Weather Ball onto the Weather Ball page?  I'm thinking of recording them soon but I want to know how to deal with the actual page technicalities. - [[User:Trainer Hunter|Trainer Hunter]] 02:19, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
::::25ms version looks fair enough. You don't need to do them all at once, take your time.

:::::Yeah I saw what you did with Curse, but with more than two variations, yeah it'd be a jumble.  Anyhow, making these PNGs doesn't take me a lot of time at all, and I have a lot of time to kill, so I'll just pace around 10-20 of them a day if I can (more if I'm feeling like making a bunch), so this is no trouble.  Thanks for all the input, I'll be getting back to this soon.  And when I have the Weather Ball variations up I guess I'll point them out to you and you can figure out how to handle them. {{Unsigned|Trainer Hunter}}
 
== More to do. ==
 
Movegen infobox was updated for 3D games (Battle Revolution, Colloseum, XD, Stadium, Stadium 2). Also, stuff like Weather Ball (including ???-type, which is done for XD) or Curse... Gonna add Fury Swipes, Fury Attack and Fly, then switch to directly by alphabet, not by generation then by alphabet (say thanks to [[:bp:List of moves|this]]), and that means I will start with Aerial Ace after switching (since this is first move available in Gen III games and not done yet in these games). I have Air Cutter already done, I don't remember even when I did it. Now how many moves differ between Hoenn and Kanto games? [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 18:57, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 
== Yet more 2MB stuff ==
 
Figured now would be a good time for a new subject.  I've got five moves today that are over the limit:<br>

My plans are essentially to re-record everything I've got then record the rest of the moves that don't have Gen 5 pictures.  After that I'll be doing replacements in bulk (Seems I can do that now!) and after that... I guess I could work on Gen 4 recordings?  But that's gonna be a while.  Especially since there's just above/below 200 moves with no gen 5 images. {{unsigned|Trainer Hunter}}

Where did you get those high quality images of the animated moves from, the ones you made on your own? [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] 02:25, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

== Sprite Constraints ==
 
There is a guideline that says that Gen IV sprites should be in an 80x80 box.

== More APNG help ==
 
So, I uploaded several .apngs of moves from Gen III, and the problem is that I don't know how to change the first thumbnail to one for browsers that don't support .apng animations.  The method I used was to record the animation on vba with Hypercam, create a .gif from the resulting video, then convert that to an .apng file.  It works fine in Firefox, but Chrome shows only the first frame.  [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] also talked about changing the speed of different actions in the animation (text speed, etc.), although I don't see why that is an issue.  I think if I can at least get the thumbnail correct, it should be fine. Please help! --[[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] 05:33, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
:Thanks to Photoshop and animget (this makes .bmp every 10ms, do not use it all full screen, but at normal, default size). Photostop converts it into .png via... I think it was called batching or something, I don't remember.... And then I make apng in Japng editor (or, in case of 220+ frames, APNG Anime Maker as japng editor runs out of memory in bigger animations). Frame 0 represents the still frame for browsers that don't support animated .pngs, and I click skip first frame to make it not appear in animation, yet be saw in thumbnail ([http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/6356/trollol.png like this]. After making animation, I optimize it to make it fit in limit (though that failed for {{m|Blizzard}} and {{m|Dream Eater}} due to background). And the text... if text is too fast people won't be able to read it. I saw few times where text was too fast, and I couldn't read it. Masatoshi gave links for programs I need. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 12:31, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
::Here's what I ended up doing.  I loaded the apng I made already into JapngEditor (it loads frames from apng but not gif), then took a screenshot of the thumbnail for nonsupported browsers and inserted it at the top and skipped the first frame.  Then I played around a bit with the frame speed (mostly first and last) where applicable (didn't fool around much with the actual move animation speed, as it was good already) and saved it.  Checking it out, it showed the thumbnail in Chrome and the animation in Firefox. This won't work for the long animations that need APNG Anime Maker, as it won't load the inidividual frames from anpg or gif files, but I don't think any of the moves I uploaded (except maybe Rock Blast or something) will need me to use AnimGet and APNG Anime Maker.  Thanks for your help, Marked +-+-+! --[[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] 23:34, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
 
== gen IV move animations ==
 
So now I want to try and do some gen IV move animations.  Should I use no$gba or Desmume?  I just don't know which one gives the best representation of the DS animation for the Gen IV games.  I've heard that no$gba doesn't render transparency at all, but Desmume seems to have it's own problems rendering animations, especially in Platinum. HG/SS seems to be fine, though.  Which one should I use? --[[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] 19:19, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
:I would use Desmume, because no$gba does have a problem in the fact that it doesn't transparentise at all (meaning there are loads of black patches; see [[:File:Dragon Dance IV.png|this]] as an example). Desmume also runs at the speed of the computer, so the animation speed is always the same.--[[User:Chalkwriter|<span style="color:green">Chalk</span>]][[User talk:Chalkwriter|<span style="color:red">writer</span>]] 17:10, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

:Uh, what does the 3DS have to do with this? Also, you could have tried mailing me through the e-mail feature. We aren't talking about that edit war, we're talking about this one. You and Darthrai both reverted each other a total of seven times (that means, you reverting him, him reverting you, you reverting him and so on), giving you both a week, but since you already participated in another edit war with Satoshi before (and blocked because of that), the time is doubled due reincidence.

::The 3DS is what I was using to access this page... You said you blocked me based on the first edit war, so yes, the first one has everythig to do with this "Second block due to it." The first block was 3 days.  You were supposed to double that.  Not the week you gave Darthrai AFTER you blocked me. You are showing an extreme case of bias and I don't see why you should've blocked me in the first place. That means you're placing the blame on me when I specifically used the talkpage to prevent an edit war.  Look man, tomorrow's my birthday, so I'd really like it if my birthday present here is that my block is lifted. Considering no staff member ever gave me a warning for any of my three blocks, and didn't tell me I did anything wrong until after I was blocked, that seems very much like an abuse of power. 3*2 '''does not equal''' 14--[[User:SandmanDP|SandmanDP]] 12:13, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
:::Okay, this is getting really tiring, I've told you that the ban depends on '''how many edits both offending parties had in the edit war''', in this case, '''seven'''. Since it's your second block '''due''' to edit warring, the time is '''double'''. 7*2 '''does equal''' 14. You participated in a war twice already (actually three times, but you had a perfectly good reason once and we didn't think you should get punished for reverting a guy who was replacing the redirect with a somewhat empty article). Jo blocked you in that opportunity, she was trying to make you two stop, because you were more than edit warring, you were actually in a quarrel, so she gave you and Satoshi a three day cooldown. '''Not even a full week'''. I'm going through the path of edit war (one day per reverted edit, I think I already mentioned it, and this is your second block because of it, I think I mentioned it too). You are showing an extreme case of denial and I don't see why I should lift your block (this is no longer in my hands since you already e-mailed a member of the Editorial Board, they'll get to it soon). Regarding the talk page, I told him he should have waited until a consensus was reached, something he understood, he will now try to be more careful regarding that. Your birthday is on January 31st? [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/members/57170.html Could have sworn it was on August 10th]. In any case, I still won't lift your block, that's up to the EB from now on. Regarding your claim that nobody warned you, [[bp:User_talk:SandmanDP#Recent_edits_on_Emily_Jenness|if this isn't any sort of a warning, then I don't know what it is]]. Trust me, this isn't abusing our power, it's just endorsing the Bulbapedia policies, which is what Administrators are for. I am no longer replying to this in Archives, should you want to keep at it, use the e-mail feature, but if you try to appeal here again and not the aforementioned proper procedure, I'll have to ban your Archives account to expire at the same time than your Bulbapedia account, and all further blocks will be replicated across all Bulbawikis, I saw you undo Pattyman who was doing the right thing, and even Kogs, but that's another story.  [[User:Masatoshi|<span style="color: #224a9a"><b><span style="color: #2b5fc7">M</span>asatoshi</b></span>]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|<span style="color: #118eb2"><sub><small>''talk''</small></sub></span>]] 15:55, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
 
That was not a warning by a staff member and not about anything I was actually blocked for.  You are following your own policies, and YOU SAID the block was based on the previous one, not edits, in your block summary.  3 times 2 does not equal 14.  You did not decide on the length of the block until after you blocked me by halving mine to give to Darthrai.  YOU WERE WAY TOO HARSH.  I was doing what any of you administrators would do IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION.  You are holding unnecessary double standards--[[User:SandmanDP|SandmanDP]] 20:34, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Could upload something from Pokémon Stadium (both), or Mystery Dungeon (also both, still have Red Rescue Team and Explorers of Sky, though it will be much easier on Rescue Team).

== Hmm ==
 
Sorry if I bloated the edit summary, but yeah, this is the first Wiki I've uploaded an image to that is actually hosted at a sister Wiki (obviously I've done others at Wikipedia that are hosted, well, at Wikipedia, not Commons).  As for the image, I can truthfully say I didn't do anything to blow it up; that's the size I got the image at; also, doesn't high quality violate something in the fair use guidelines?  I know from Wikipedia when uploading, for instance, an album cover (example of copyrighted material), high resolution is forbidden and would be deleted if uploaded.  If it's actually blown up somehow as I added it, a reduced version can be made.  In [[bp:Opelucid City|the spot I used it]], it actually is under the 250 px resolution which I found on an image in another article.
 
I'll have to learn what this BP template is (I know that's a template hence the curly braces - again, longtime Wikipedian here), and categorizing...well, first image uploaded, and found it finally allowed me to upload after a month of lockdown, so I was happy just to get it up and didn't think about categories or how to do them (as again, it's something I've never had to worry about before); perhaps guidance on that might help. =)  Nonetheless, I don't foresee myself uploading a large number of images, and for all I know this could be my only one as I tend to look more at text editing, so it may not be an issue in the end.

:::As I'm not in possession of White 2, I don't have the ability to get a good-quality image; it would take me forever to get to that image, too.
:::I found a video (Black 2 though) where a guy walks right through the fence (cheats obviously) and shows the fence on the other side, plows through THAT and into the forest.  The music even changes (different theme) as if Route 10 was originally there without a gatehouse, but no Route 10 marker comes up.  I think Route 10 might have been included initially, but perhaps the theme belongs to the default border trees themselves, not what would have been Route 10.  Too bad they didn't find a way to reopen part of it after beating the E4 (in other words, script the construction barriers and blocking fence away); it would have been a great way to hide a super item or TM.

Some of sprites are badly ripped (Shiny Scyther, Masquerain, Gastly, Totodile... and well Lugia animations actually need to be "recorded" from an actual battle as on status it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeS0F83e5KM gets cut] by few pixels). They also seem too fast for me. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 13:51, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

But how do you get HD pictures? [[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?]]) 03:12, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

== [[:File:Thunderbolt Japanese I.png]] ==
 
We may need put some kind of... warning ([[:bp:Thunderbolt (move)|I kinda did that on Bulbapedia already]]). After all, the original ''was'' capable of epileptic seizures. I have no idea how to do that, though. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 17:14, 18 March 2013 (UTC) PS. I mean warning that would actually make it safe (like the warning pops up and file wouldn't open until you click "yes" or something along these lines).

== Ash XY ==
 
Just wondered why the Unsatisfactory template was readded to the Ash XY.png file? The file I uploaded is clean and transparent.. not sure what "Jpg artifacts" there still is? Not trying to be rude just generally curious haha --[[User:S2daam|S2daam]] ([[User talk:S2daam|talk]]) 17:18, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
:It's just that I still see some artifacts, nothing to get worried about anyways, since we'll get a better quality image as the series premiere draws near.

== Castform and Cherrim minisprites ==
 
There's problem. HGSS added static minisprites of their forms. BW the animated ones. The problem's, BW changed Cherrim's Sunshine minisprite (the one we currently have is HGSS's one, though planning to upload the BW one, reupload HGSS one at different name and put it into the article, since it is technically used in the HGSS Pokédex)... Plus they all exist since HGSS (animated ones since G5; Cherrim has that trolly thing with two static minis, first used in HGSS, second for G5 {{.}}_{{.}}), so you can't say "This is the menusprite of #351 Castform from the Generation III, IV, and V Pokémon games." on Rainy Form's sprite, since it's not truth; and yes I checked Platinum, and seeing only the "female/male" for them. (On other hand, Spiky-eared Pichu seems to use regular minisprite) [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 11:44, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
:Noted. I told {{u|Kogoro}} about it and she will set an override parameter so it requires to note the generation, it would be the third parameter ({{{3}}}).

::Third parameter ended up being taken, so it's actually the fourth.

It's better to just link you to the discussion I am having with Chosen than to explain everything all over again. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Chosen#Color_correction_on_sugi_art  [[User:Jabberwockxeno|Jabberwockxeno]] ([[User talk:Jabberwockxeno|talk]]) 16:16, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
 
== .gif to .png ==
 
I have a question. Do all .gif need to be replaced with an animated .png? Also, if that is the case, would you tag those files with the gif template? [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 22:02, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
:Only animated .gif files. Scans, sprites, screenshots, icons and diagrams should be in .png alone; photographs and cards should be in .jpg. The template used for tagging .gif to .png is {{Template|Gif}} indeed.

Can you restore the image which is named [[:File:Clefairy Mega Punch MPJ.png]] since I saw in the manga (both English and Japanese version) that the move was actually being used? [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 19:14, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
