Talk:Winged Yoshi

Is this conjecture or not? -- Sir Grodus

I thought I remembered this form being referred to as such in the NES Yoshi game's manual, but as I don't have mine, I can't check. Just to be safe, why not list it as conjectural until I can find an official name for it?Dinosaur bob 15:36, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

Here it is- from the text of the manual of Yoshi on the NES: "If you sandwich some characters between an upper shell half and a lower shell half, you will get a bonus depending on how many characters you sandwiched:

 Little Yoshi -- 0 to 1 characters -- 50 points
 Yoshi        -- 2 to 4 characters -- 100 points
 Winged Yoshi -- 5 to 6 characters -- 200 points
 Star Yoshi   -- 7 characters      -- 500 points"

Would that count as an official name for this form then? Dinosaur bob 15:41, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

Yes. -- Sir Grodus

I'd add an image (I even know just the one- the official art from that same manual), but I still don't know how to work the image upload system, and I'm unfamiliar with image copyright laws. I think it'd be better to let one of you add one than accidentally get this wiki project in trouble due to my ignorance, right? Dinosaur bob 16:11, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

Don't worry. Just upload the file, and I'll get someone to get the license. Doesn't Parayoshi (user) have that artwork? Silent but deadly! SuperLuigi821 You lost everything. Way to go genious.

I just requested the webmaster at YoshiArt.com as to whether or not I could use the pic they have there, as per that site's rules. In a day or two, we'll see whether or not I can get it up. Dinosaur bob 20:54, 17 May 2007 (EDT)

Not that it matters either way. I followed the instructions on the file upload page- I even used the proper template for the summary, but when I hit "upload file", nothing happens. I suppose I'll need some assistance in figuring out what I'm doing wrong. If anyone'd care to help me, I'll start a discussion about it on my Talk Page.Dinosaur bob 19:06, 19 May 2007 (EDT)

Was it bmp? Xzelion^ETC

It was a jpg file, actually.Dinosaur bob 19:31, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
