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.

It's great that you're uploading the png replacements for the gifs we currently have, however, is it possible for you to get your own image from external sources instead of print-screening it? I'd much rather actual uploads than a print screen because the pngs taken from the gif images are actually really bad-quality as a result. If possible, after uploading the png versions, insert the bad image template as well (say, if they're too small). Thanks.

: No, i don't ''print screen'' the images. I convert gifs to pngs using a tool which is mention in [[Archives:To-do list|to-do list]] .

Welcome

Welcome to the Bulbagarden Archives, Poke.geek!
Bulbagarden Archives bulb.png

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.
  • 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!

Fan art

I am sorry but the fan arts and personal images are not allowed on Archives, please do not upload them. ♫♪エイディニズ♪♫ 11:45, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Categories

Please do not forget to put the categories onto new images you upload, as you upload them. If you want to know more about the requirements for uploading files, visit the FAQ section. If you have any other query regarding Archives, you may ask. Thank you, have a nice day. ♫♪エイディニズ♪♫ 18:00, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for that! --✔Poke.geek✔ 03:19, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Regarding your uploads and edits

Categories go below the licensings. If the location name is capitalized, so should the filename. So... Nidorina Laramie Ranch.png, not Nidorina laramie ranch.png. Finally, episode names are italicized. Thanks. ht14 04:22, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Actually, the images you uploaded... they are poor in quality compared to the ones already uploaded. So... I'm not sure what you're trying to do. ht14 04:26, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
Can you please delete those pictures that I uploaded. --✔Poké.geek✔ 19:15, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Images not changing

When an image looks the same, purge the page by clicking the clock to the left of your name and then refresh. When you upload a new file, it changes but not always automatically. All you need to do is refresh the page until it changes. Ataro 00:23, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks :D --✔Poké.geek✔ 20:33, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Town maps

While I appreciate the hard work you did, it would be best if you avoid uploading the Town maps as pngs for the time being as those should actually stay as gifs. Don't worry about the ones that were uploaded as pngs. Pattyman 14:07, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

So this means that we will have to remove the {{gif}} template from all the town maps so that they don't appear in this category? Pokégeek 15:02, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Afraid so. However, the missing categories and some other stuff can be added. I added the template on there in the first place as I thought they needed to be saved as pngs, but I was then told that it wouldn't be necessary. Pattyman 18:52, 14 March 2012 (UTC)

Regarding the png replacements

It's great that you're uploading the png replacements for the gifs we currently have, however, is it possible for you to get your own image from external sources instead of print-screening it? I'd much rather actual uploads than a print screen because the pngs taken from the gif images are actually really bad-quality as a result. If possible, after uploading the png versions, insert the bad image template as well (say, if they're too small). Thanks. ht14 00:31, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

No, i don't print screen the images. I convert gifs to pngs using a tool which is mention in to-do list . Pokégeek 13:06, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
