Image help

Good job on uploading this image, but let me give you a few tips.

You uploaded that image without giving it a name; it just showed up as "Image.jpg". It's very important that every picture you upload, no matter what, has a name, otherwise we won't be able to tell what the image is for. If a picture is just called "Image.jpg" but it's a picture of some obscure character, we wouldn't know what it's for, or from, right? It just causes unnecessary confusion. I renamed your image to "MK8BlueShellTrophy.jpg" for you, so you don't have to worry about that, but keep this in mind the next time you upload an image.

Another thing I wanted to talk to you about is image size. The pictures on your userpage are very large, but there's a simple way to make them smaller. When you just type in the name of a large image (for example, [[File:Pprbwsr.png]]), the resulting image...

...is very large. But, adding a simple code to the file link can make it much smaller. Let me show you.

Just typing in [[File:Pprbwsr.png]] results in the large image above. But, adding the code "|300px" after the image type (in this case .png) would result in...

...a much smaller picture. Let me show you the exact way to do it.

[[File:(image name and type here)|300px]]
example; [[File:Pprbwsr.png|300px]]

Now, the 300 part doesn't have to be just 300; it can be any whole number smaller than the full length or width (whichever is bigger; in this case, 1464) of the picture. Smaller numbers = smaller pictures.

I hope you find this information useful, and send me a message if you have more questions. Thank you, and welcome to the wiki! LB (talk • edits • forum) 03:17, 8 March 2014 (EST)

Wow, ok. I'll do that tommorow. Thanks for the tips. And I didn't notice not nameing the Blue Shell Trophy, so double thanks. - Ninelevendo, the Blue Lightning! (talk)

Oh, and something I forgot to mention; when you move an image to a new name, mark the old image name for deletion by putting the {{delete}} template at the top of the page. LORD BOWSER 04:54, 11 March 2014 (EDT)

Scrolling pictures

Adding a scrolling picture is actually much easier than it looks. This is the code you have to use;

<div style="position:fixed; top:###px; right:###px;">Put in whatever you'd like, such as an image or text, here.</div>

Now, at the parts where there's 3 #'s in a row are where numbers are supposed to be; it means how many pixels away the topmost and rightmost parts of the picture are from the top and right edges of your screen. You could also change "top" to "bottom" and "right" to "left"; then it'd be how many pixels away from those edges.

Message me if you have more questions; I'm glad I can help! LB (talk • edits • forum) 02:44, 12 March 2014 (EDT)

Your personal image

I've noticed that you've been trying to make your personal image transparent; however, your image is in .jpg format, which doesn't support transparency. You need to convert your image to .png format, then it'll be transparent. LB (talk • edits • forum) 02:14, 14 March 2014 (EDT)

Ohhhh....... Right... Thanks again. I'll see if I can make it png. - Ninelevendo, the Blue Lightning! (talk)
