By creating your account you are now able to upload images to help Bulbapedia and Bulbanews. Before you jump in, take a look at these helpful tips:

  • Uploaded images must meet several requirements. Please see the upload form and/or manual of style before you upload a new image.
  • All images need categories and license tags. Save time and fill them out as you upload. There are many different licenses - be sure to pick the best fit.
  • Use meaningful filenames. Make them descriptive so that searchers can find your images easily.
  • You may have up to two personal images. All other images are expected to be for encyclopedic/news value.
  • If you don't have any images to submit, you can still help out.
  • If you have any more questions, see the FAQ or ask a staff member.
Thank you, and have a good time uploading here!

Hey

Thank you for your help here, but I'd like you point out some stuff you did wrong.

  • The name of the move (Defence), should be Defense.
  • The filename shouldn't include any hint on being an animated .png, that should be left off for the summaries.
  • Tackel, should be Tackle.
    • The file and animation is referring to the move known as Defense Curl...
  • I assume you used Gameboy Color instead of Real Color, please use the latter as it uses, well... real colors, more accurate to what I'd want to see.
    • Also, you're using no$gba, I'd recommend you using DeSmuME, as it gives a more accurate emulation, you might want to check my contributions and compare them to your image, you'll see that they have no black lines that make the file lower in quality.
  • The animation is a bit too fast, not to mention you forgot it's a status move, and as such, the animation should contain the message after the animation ([Pokémon]'s Defense/Attack/etc. rose! or related).
    • You should also add a pause between:
      • First frame (I use 300ms for Generation IV)
      • Last frame before the animation sequence begins (~300ms)
      • Last frame (~500ms)
  • If you're using the JAPNG Editor (I'm more than sure), you should add one of the middle frames, on where Geodude is already performing Defense Curl, so users that have other browser, not being Firefox, are able to see what the move looks like, it's a very iomportant step you gotta take.
  • Instead of using English versions of {{bp|Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Diamond and Pearl}}, use {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the result will be the same, but faster. Also, avoid using English versions of, thanks.

Anything else you may want to know, you may check this FAQ, or you might ask me, I'll be glad to help.

Also, I'm sorry, but I'll have to delete that picture and upload a better version, I just hope you remember this for the next time. :P Masatoshitalk 06:01, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, at least I know now.--Chalkwriter 12:30, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

About Geodude before you say anything...

Sorry. The darn thing didn't seem to animate first time and so I uploaded it again to see if it would work again.--Chalkwriter 20:36, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
