Thanks!

Thanks for requesting an image to Danger. Yeah, I created that article and searched for an image for awhile. But I couldn't find one... Hope someone can. Cheers from Finland!

P.S. Your user page is absolutely GORGEOUS!

P.P.S. I'm too a HUGE fan of Paper Mario games and I think TTYD is the best game EVER!

My talk page

In general, if someone goes and asks a user a question, you should let the owner of the talk page answer the question themselves rather than jumping in before they even have a chance to check in on the discussion. This is especially true when it comes to admin matters, because you are not an admin and you are not in a position to give fully informed answers about how we handle our business. I know you're just trying to help, but please don't insert yourself into those sorts of interchanges, since, as in this case, conjecture may lead to misinformation being passed along, which is not helpful. And even if you know the answer for sure, it's still preferable if the inquiring user (or anon) hears it "straight from the horse's mouth", as it were. I hope you understand. - Walkazo 11:52, 5 July 2013 (EDT)

RE: Brother?

I highly doubt it. My brothers aren't really into the Mario series. Yoshi876 (talk)

I've just confirmed he isn't my brother. I have 2 and the user was claiming he was my only brother, but I thought it was only admins that check IPs. Yoshi876 (talk)

Fair enough, there are 2 admins and a bureaucrat online now if you want. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yep, though I would've loved to have seen how badly I could get his story to fall apart before he blocked, but I wonder he targeted me. Yoshi876 (talk)

Can't be unofficial (made by other users) artwork licensed images not marked as Personal Images? 'Cause I really wanted to make much more -_- ... -- -- KOOPA CON CARNE

I marked the Minecraft Logo for deletion (for my reason). Are images that only link to user pages considered personal? -- -- KOOPA CON CARNE

And I don't understand somethin'. If two images are used in a signature, are they considered as one?-- -- KOOPA CON CARNE

Re: Quesion please?

Official websites and press releases.

Yeah that's a good site. I'm an admin there.

Though, we do prefer the black background on the Luigi's Mansion art, as it's seen in official sources.

Reverts

Compare filesize of File:SSB4 - Villager Group Illustration.png and File:SSB4 Villager GroupArt.jpg, 5.19 MB versus 4.47 MB. The same goes to all other images that you thought would impact people with slow internet. SWFlash

Re: User:Gissy

Done. Also, what's the correct resolutions of the Brawl screenshots you mentioned?

Make sure to state a clear re-upload summary, or else people are likely to have the incentive to revert it to the earlier revision saying something like "but this one is larger".

Yeah, stating the original size of the screenshot is the resolution that you are uploading.

Re:Trick

Well it's already all set up. All it needs is uploaded images. Hence why I put a construction template on the page. Ray Trace^(T|C)

That's what I'm currently doing. The emulation is SO SLOW though. 10 FPS is gonna extend my project further than necessary. Ray Trace^(T|C)

That's not Dolphin's fault, it's because your computer isn't strong enough to process the game. To emulate the Wii at perfect speed, your computer needs to be several times stronger than the Wii. Ray Trace^(T|C) 16:12, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

Mine is an Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual Core CPU E2200 @ 2.20 GHz 2.20 GHz Ray Trace^(T|C) 16:24, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

I know but it's impossible to get different size Miis since the Dolphin has only the medium ones. Ray Trace^(T|C) 16:55, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

Sure I don't mind. Ray Trace^(T|C) 17:15, 25 July 2013 (EDT)

Uhh yes I am? ^^; Ray Trace^(T|C) 15:29, 26 July 2013 (EDT)

It's gonna get weirder. Trust me. Ray Trace^(T|C)

You could help me with the tricks. It's a daunting project already. But that's ok, I'm able to handle it. Ray Trace^(T|C) 18:56, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

I made the resolution to fit my screen. It's 1920x1584 and my computer resolution is 1680x1050 Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:00, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Why? I don't understand, I don't think our readers are that dumb. :P Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:19, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Hah I guess I was being a little bit too satirical about Miis being in the game in the first place so I liked them as weird looking as possible. Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:22, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Fine, whatever you say. But how come you didn't say anything about that bug Mii I made? :P Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:25, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Eh whatever. I'm still changing to make it look vaguely human... ._.Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:31, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Checkmark table in Mario Kart series' Playable Characters section

• Hey Megadardery, can you please explain this edit on the Mario Kart series' Playable Characters section between mine and yours?
• Can you explain your reasoning and mindset for making this edit?
• The reason I got sick with how it was implemented (seems to be derived from how I did so to the MP series article) is:

1. It looks a lot more cleaner without utilizing those images - check marks for "confirm", blanks for "not in the game at all", and question marks for "yet to be said"
2. It's a lot more easier to maintain and edit

Well, having actual references is certainly an improvement.

Note that when using the <ref name="Something">http:fake.com</ref> markup (as opposed to <ref> without the "name=" part), you don't need to add the url to every subsequent instances. Just add <ref name="Something"></ref> when you cite the same source. --Glowsquid (talk) 16:30, 4 August 2013 (EDT)

Reply

Protecting image on main page is to prevent minor IP address vandal and non-autoconfirmed users who might vandal as well. If the image gets major recurring unconstructive edits, then a higher protection will be added.

As I said to protect them from vandal, also from anonymous users whom might spam the images. When they are feature on main page, it's important add a protection limit to prevent any vandals from uploading any vulgarity. Same similarity when protecting article pages.

RE: Moving files

Just had, and then got edit conflicted, got to start again. Yoshi876 (talk)

That time I was edit conflicted. Usually when I move a file, I'll have the pages open in a new tab to get there quickly. Yoshi876 (talk)

I re-added the better-named images to the gallery. I also added 4 more images so hopefully I did it correctly this time. Agentdave7 (talk) 17:37, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

There's not a lot of skull to crush, though. Yoshi should've dined on some fruits before doing this.

Yup. Hacks are amazing. Some hacks let you take super close ups and make your favorite man really big.

It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:32, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

What kind? Codes or character hacks? The free camera and giant size is a code while the character hack is a modified file. :)

Look at him! He's so cute when he looks like he's ready to die. :3

It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:38, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

Well, you do need some installation and stuff in your Wii for the hacks to work. Anyway, here's the link for a few codes (like the size and freecam ones): http://vggts.macrosonic.org/where/ssbb/codes/codes.html while this site provides a large library of codes, assuming that you're using the North American version. Otherwise, it's another library.

First, though, you have to have Homebrew and Gecko. Don't worry, that stuff is legal.

Emulated Screenshots

• Depending on your emulator settings, even the biggest screenshots can appear high quality. You just simply need to experiment with the settings to see what works and what doesn't. On my end, most 16:9 resolution screenshots that I've uploaded have their size dimensions set to either 1280x720 pixels or 1600x900 pixels. M&SG (talk) 07:59, 15 August 2013 (EDT)

Re: Princess Game & Watch

Hmm, that was me trying to use my imagination a long while back. I'll see if I can rack my brains for a better-suited name. "Shopkeeper" is a little generic. Maybe "Item Shopkeeper" might be the most suitable, I think I'll move it to that.

Re: Request

Sorry, I'd rather not. Editing another user's signature without their permission, unless it's necessary (i.e. to comply with the rules) is considered unorthodox. Especially when it's the mere casualty of replacing an image pending deletion. It's up to the user themselves to maintain their own userspace when it comes to replacing images which have been deleted or are pending deletion.

Shokora (talk · edits) 08:22, 5 September 2013 (EDT)

nvm, I just thought this was allowed because I had seen a sysop before editing it to replace an image

Reply

I know I should mark a sticker with the delete template, but... sigh..., I want to replace all the old images first and then get on with deleting. Replacing stickers with better versions is an incredibly tedious task and I'd like to do it as quickly as possible and still maintain some of my motivation.

By the way, I'm not sure what code is needed to extend the blast lines. I'm not a coder. :x I don't quite get what you mean about your character facing the screen. Maybe the unrestricted camera code might help? After all, this sweet baby code can rotate the pause camera 360 degrees and zoom in and zoom out like a free little birdie. If you mean "facing the screen" by flipping your character, then that requires some PSA changing, and I have no idea how that works, but perhaps me and BabyLuigiOnFire will learn later in the future.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 21:46, 5 September 2013 (EDT)

Oh, sure you can help! I always appreciate it. I cropped the stickers from this page. I work from a roughly left-to-right, top-to-bottom basis. If you look at my recent uploads, I last uploaded Metagross. I don't think I need to tell you this, but make sure you don't upload duplicates since the rows in the sheet aren't perfect. But I was burnt out from all this uploading, so you don't know how happy ( and relieved) I am to see somebody that wants to upload some stickers! ^^ There are other sticker sprite sheets here, and there are four links to them. But again, thanks!
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:47, 8 September 2013 (EDT)

I was about to go alphabetical, but it would take even longer for me to find the corresponding stickers. But, it's a great thing that you've organized your sheets! I hope you can upload all of the stickers in time.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:18, 9 September 2013 (EDT)

I sent you a PM. I'll upload some more if you like, but I'm also kind of busy with other things, which is probably a reason I'm not so active here right now, but I'll try to be active.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:09, 18 September 2013 (EDT)
