''' | Bulbagarden Archives prefers the following formats for images: | ||
''' | * '''.png''' for sprites, screenshots, icons, diagrams, and simple images | ||
* '''.jpg''' for photographs or scans such as cards from the Pokémon TCG | |||
* '''.gif''' format should be avoided. Animated images should be in anipng (.png) format. | |||
Please | The use of the correct file is important as the file extension often interacts with templates on Bulbapedia and Bulbanews. | ||

* A log of uploaded images is kept [[Special:Log/upload|here]]. | |||
* If you are uploading over an existing image, you may need permission from an {{ar|administrator}}. | |||
* You should only use alphanumeric characters, dash and underscore in filenames. Other characters, especially multibyte characters such as Japanese text, may cause server errors. (e.g. Lt. Surge's ピカチュウ {Pikachu}.jpeg) | |||
