Avoid GIFs for complex images as it has a limited colorspace.

I think that should be changed to:

for agreement. (That's from the upload page) --エルレイド 21:00, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Cool. Thanks. This has been fixed. — THE TROM — 05:11, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Animated images

I fail to see how all these PNG images are supposed to be "animated" Please explain? They dont animate in my browser, but are PNGs supposed to be able to animate? _Blake ^Talk·Edits 22:00, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Spread the word

To avoid something like that happen again, I suggest we either;

1. Add it to the welcome template for new users

or

1. add it on the main page

This way, there's a slight chance it won't happen again.--Force Fire 12:13, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Gen II trainer sprites

First, they should be in png format, no? Second, the format is 56 x 56, no? If so for both, we have gif files and incorrect-sized png files. Suggestions, anyone? ^ht14 01:57, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

What's the deal with these images?

Just was checking Category:Game maps and found a bunch of REALLY crappy images. No articles link to them, and they basically consist of every imaginable kind of badness game maps can have.

The full list: Eterna_City.jpg Floaroma_Town.jpg Fuego_Ironworks.jpg Hearthome_City.jpg HearthomeCityIngame.jpg Lake Acuity.jpg Lake Valor.jpg Lake Verity.gif Pokemon League.jpg Route 201.jpg Route 204.jpg Route 208.jpg Route 221.jpg Shino Map.jpg

I'm relatively new to the archives, so I'm not sure what to do. Should we scrap them, or is there some hidden purpose to them? Please help! --AndyPKMN 18:33, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

I'll take care of them ^Maverick_Nate 18:35, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

The totals at the top of the page

I've noticed some inconsistencies with the totals at the top of this page, which actually mean that we're closer to the correct number of sprites than we seem. For instance:

• Gen I: All good obviously
• Gold: Though it currently says we are 2 sprites over, the "correct" total fails to take into account the japanese sprites of Jynx and Aipom. The same holds true for the Gold shinies!
• Silver: Same problem as Gold except it's Jynx and Slowpoke. Silver shiny too!
• Crystal: Just Jynx this time. This also covers Crystal shiny (where we dont have the right number either way) and Gen II back

Gen II normal and shiny.

• Ruby and Sapphire: I don't know where that total came from but without Castform (which seems to have been forgotten) it's 413 but with... 416, the total we have. Same for Shiny except Castform probably shouldn't be counted... The total of 416 should also work for Emerald (once again unless Castform is discarded) at which point it's 413.
• FireRed and LeafGreen: Should have 1 more than RSE (417) because of the added Deoxys Forme. With the shinies being 414 if we dont put Castform.
• Gen 3 back should be 419 as it would contain all the Deoxys plus the other 416. Shiny is 416.--MisterE13 02:05, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

I agree with most of your points except the last two. Also, the top ones are made for general sprites. That way those who find missing ones will find them and just upload them. In regards to your last two points... there are sprite changes between RS and FRLG, such as minor colorings and change in images (see File:Spr b g3 003.png and File:Spr b g3 fl 003.png. ^ht14 22:20, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
