== Sprites ==
Many of the images you are tagging as duplicates are not. For example, Wartortle: [http://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/main-sprites/diamond-pearl/back/8.png DP], [http://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/main-sprites/platinum/back/8.png Pt], [http://veekun.com/dex/media/pokemon/main-sprites/heartgold-soulsilver/back/8.png HGSS]. If you compare them by changing tabs, you'll notice that HGSS has bluer fluffy bits, and Pt has a minor change on its ear from DP. I highly reccomend doing tab-changing comparisons before declaring images duplicates. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:23, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

  • 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.
  • Personal images are no longer allowed. Any personal images found will be deleted on sight.
  • 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!

Hello

Thank you for uploading the missing sprites, I really appreciate it. However, please be careful while adding summaries/categories. I noticed that you missed an "a" in Feraligatr, while Totodile had a lower case "t". Also, I wanted to ask one more thing, any purpose behind uploading this image? ♫♪エイディニズ♪♫ 11:28, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

When I first uploaded it, I didn't realize that there was an image already for that episode that worked. G50 11:34, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Regarding those uploads

Are these images all supposed to be Platinum? I'm really confused what you're trying to do. The backsprites are mostly done for DP. ht14 05:57, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Also, regarding the Unown... since they're all the same and DP came out first, the Platinum filename is supposed to be a redirect. That would register as a file. ht14 06:01, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
I'm confused with what you are saying. G50 06:02, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Umm, the files you uploaded for Raticate for instance... and then you requested the files to be moved to DP backsprites... and in regards to Unown, since DP came out first, the images should be titled File:Spr_b_4d_201<insert letter/symbol>.png, and File:Spr_b_4p_201<symbol/letter>.png would serve as a redirect to the mentioned file. ht14 06:06, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
I'm trying to understand how to redirect (I didn't realize that for the images I uploaded, I need to redirect them). G50 06:37, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Type in "File:Spr 4p 364.png" into the search bar. Note that instead of that file, you see "File:Spr 4d 364.png". Now let me direct your attention to the bottom of the file. It will say "File usage" and under that "The following 2 pages link to this file:" The two files listed (which includes the one from Platinum) are redirects. That shows whether there's a redirect. If you click on the link at the top of the page where it says: "(Redirected from File:Spr 4p 364.png)", you will see the redirect code. ht14 13:13, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Please don't upload the same images... simply add the redirects while creating the new pages without uploading them. It becomes a hassle having to delete and then redirect, where it could have been done in one step. Thanks. ht14 06:13, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
Which ones are you referring to? G50 06:17, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
The ones that have no significant changes to their previous versions (aka Pt sprites being the same as DP's). Also, to redirect, as I told you, all you need to do is write #REDIRECT [[File to redirect to]], don't redirect to another file if that page has a file already, that file should be deleted, to do so, you place the deletion tag, we take care of it and you can redirect it. Hope I was clearer this time. Masatoshitalk 03:12, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Converting GIF/JPG to PNG

If an image is flagged as being bad because it is GIF/JPG quality, please do not simply re-upload it as a PNG. This does not fix the issue at all as it keeps and artifacts/quality loss. Example: File:Vsseeker1.png and File:Vsseeker1.gif. --SnorlaxMonster 07:17, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Okay. What has to be done with them instead, so that the issue is fixed? G50 07:20, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
The image should be created again (so someone would need to film that again but save it as an APNG). --SnorlaxMonster 07:23, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Sprites

Many of the images you are tagging as duplicates are not. For example, Wartortle: DP, Pt, HGSS. If you compare them by changing tabs, you'll notice that HGSS has bluer fluffy bits, and Pt has a minor change on its ear from DP. I highly reccomend doing tab-changing comparisons before declaring images duplicates. --SnorlaxMonster 07:23, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
