Got a spare minute? The Archives need some love. See the to-do list to find a way to help.
If you upload a new image make sure you name and categorize it properly. If in doubt, ask an admin or see our FAQ page.

Hi

Please read the checklist when you upload media files, and be sure to tag and categorize all images. If you're confused about the requirements for uploading files, have a look at this guide. --—darklordtrom 10:46, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you! I was wondering how to make images part of different categories. -Kamikarasu

Well, I see you've been experimenting, but next time use the SHOW PREVIEW button instead of save page so that we don't have to see your messing around. I'd recommend doing this before every edit you make, so it can be perfect the first time. Using the correct licenses helps to put the right categories in, too. See how I fixed it? In addition, make sure you actually use the images you upload on Bulbapedia. This isn't an image hosting site. Unused images may be deleted. —darklordtrom 09:02, 28 July 2009 (UTC)


If you're talking about that image of Sheimi from Movie 11, I actually used that screenshot for the profile picture of Movie 11 Sheimi (the character) on the site. I'm not using this site as an image hosting site--I take hundreds of snipped screenshots from each movie, and I'm actually not using the best screenshots I took. I'm planning to make a site of my own, and I want people to know that I took the screenshots once I make my site. (as opposed to uploading all my images here first, in which case people will assume that I simply took them from Bulbapedia.) I'm not experimenting--every time I upload a screenshot, I look through all of the screenshots first and take a while deciding which one I think would be the most fitting for pages on Bulbapedia. For instance, all of the screenshots of Movie 11 Giratina I uploaded (save for the first one) have been hand-picked carefully for quality and made transparent, and have either been used ON THE ARTICLE about the movie Giratina, or I've attempted to use them for the article but it didn't seem to work. I'm only uploading a few pictures on BP--small, crisp, noise-free PNG's to replace some screenshots. Please don't assume that I am incompetent and apathetic to the site just because I am a newcomer and don't get everything right the first time. Kamikarasu
