RE: MKDD high quality PNG screenshots

List of Mario Kart: Double Dash!! pre-release and unused content - You mean your images exceed 10MB, once you convert them to PNG? Try PNG Monstrous. If you don't use Windows, try the Mac section alternative. Linux, your best bet right now is to find the optimizers listed on my page compiled to run for Linux. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 16:57, 13 July 2017 (EDT)

Looks like you should be OK to use PNG Monstrous because PNGGauntlet is a Windows application. I wonder if PNGGauntlet is telling pngout to use the highest compression settings (more CPU load to find the smallest file size possible). This might be one of those instances where uploading a high quality JPEG will be the best option. I don't see Porplemontage (talk) increasing the upload size limit any time soon. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 17:32, 13 July 2017 (EDT)

Image Categories

Hello, Pasta937. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, images related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or one it its subcategories. Media files would use:
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Interfile Periods

Thanks for all the MSB images! Never thought I'd see those rolls around. One thing though is to make sure you don't use a period inside of a file name, besides the extension. It's not always great for the coding, and it's not a crazy file man thing, the the policy hints at it too. Trig - 17:22, October 3, 2019 (EDT)
