Welcome to the Bulbagarden Archives, STARBAEHR!

Thank you for joining our community! By creating your account you are now able to upload images to support Bulbapedia and Bulbagarden's other projects. This is a brief introduction to the Archives rules and resources to help you get started: Uploaded images must meet several requirements. Please see the upload form 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 not allowed. Any personal images found will be promptly removed. If you don't have any images to submit, you can still help out. If you have any more questions, see the FAQ or feel free to ask a staff member.

Thank you, and have a good time uploading here!       Thespeon (talk) 17:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

PE icons

Hi, welcome to the Archives! I'm wondering where you've found these higher quality type icons? Thespeon (talk) 17:33, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I just took the Standard SwSh icons and removed the background with a program I wrote. STARBAEHR (talk) 17:36, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

Did you use the ones we already had uploaded here? Thespeon (talk) 17:39, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

Yes. STARBAEHR (talk) 17:40, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

The trouble is that the icons you're uploading are larger and more defined than the source image you used, so they've technically been upscaled, which is against our rules here. I'll revert the ones you've just uploaded and please don't upload any more of them.

I appreciate your enthusiasm to improve the site's images though, just make sure to have a read of the rules in your welcome message before you upload anything else!

If in doubt you can ask me on my talk page, or any other staff member! Thespeon (talk) 17:48, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

They have not been upscaled, I used the images of the "{Type name} icon SwSh" group, which are also 128x128. STARBAEHR (talk) 17:51, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I see, you've removed the colored background from the SwSh icons and uploaded them as the PE icons. Though wouldn't it be better to keep the PE and SwSh icons separate? Thespeon (talk) 17:59, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I understand your point, but also, the icons are identical, so I just assumed those files were a stand in to backgroundless versions of the icons used in PE and SwSh. If you want, I can reupload them as seperate files. STARBAEHR (talk) 18:03, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

I don't think there would be any harm in finishing uploading these as they are for now. The icons do look identical. Thespeon (talk) 18:11, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
