Deleting an image

Hey admins, you may want to change {{delete|this is a duplicate image of [[File:Example.jpg]]}} to {{delete|this is a duplicate image of [[:File:Example.jpg]]}} (note the colon before the filename). We don't need massive images appearing the in the deletion tag ;P たかはりい 01:15, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

So...

So...why do we use AniPNG instead of GIFs for animated sprites? King Riolu 19:18, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Something with PNGs are a smaller file size, and for detailed images colors aren't lost.—★Pika³³²³ 19:22, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

But then why are some animated images like File:LanceHGSS.gif GIFs instead of PNGs? And sprites aren't detailed images anyway. King Riolu 16:49, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

We're currently working on slowly getting rid of gifs, and replacing them with anipngs. Note that the Emerald and Crystal sprites are all gifs while the DP sprites and on are all anipngs. The Trainer sprites that you speak of... there are many things that go on in the Archives; if you are able to, do upload the anipngs for those sprites. ^ht14 20:08, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
