Hi. Just FYI, changing the image summary during a reupload won't do nothing. You have to change it manually after the reupload. {{User:YoshiEgg1990/sig}} 19:30, 11 July 2018 (EDT)

Uploads[edit]

Your uploads are massively upscaled (1080p) for a Game Boy Color game screenshot (160x144). Super Mario Wiki policy recommends getting as close as possible to the real hardware rather than uploading the upscaled image. I have a guide all about getting the right size for the game getting a screenshot, specifically the Game Boy section. BGB or Gambette emulator is the preferred choice. Be sure to ask questions if you have any issues. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 11:51, 11 July 2018 (EDT)
