compressing

how do I compress a image? i am the best and i am like a german toad so i am awesome XD (talk) 18:34, 3 November 2017 (EDT)

Allowed types, they are already compressed from their raw counterparts based on the definitions of JPEG, PNG, and GIF. What you really mean to say is how to optimize compression. JPEG and GIF, I don't know, but PNG, look at RAP's PNG Monster page (outdated) and my PNG Monstrous page (more up-to-date) how to optimize PNG compression. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 02:07, 11 November 2017 (EST)

jpg

I uploaded a jpg image for the welcome back to Yoshi's island page and when I try to put it on the page and it doesn't show up? is there a problem? King Boo in Mario Party 8MKDSFTalk!King Boo in Mario Party 8

It wasn't typed correctly. Copy and pasting the file name helps, so you don't have to type from memory. Fixed. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 12:37, 1 January 2018 (EST)

Delete

How i can delete an image i've uploaded ? Toad render.gif 📑Contribs|💬Talk 12:23, 25 March 2018 (EDT)

You mark it for deletion using {{delete}}, so typing {{delete|insert optional reason here}} will cause the template to show on the page, and an administrator will get around to it eventually. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 12:27, 25 March 2018 (EDT)

screenshot

might be a stupid question answered somewhere already, but for n64 screenshots, are there specific plugins you need to use for taking screenshots? and is it ok if theres black bars around the image --Mistermudkip (talk)

I think it's preferred that they be cropped, but I can't say for sure. --ExdeathIcon.png Lord G. matters. ExdeathIcon.png 19:56, September 13, 2019 (EDT)

Image

How do you upload another image from another website (i.e. Bulbapedia?) - RabbidYoshi2 (talk)

Use the "Source URL" field on Special:Upload and paste the image's URL in it. --Waluigi's head icon in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 15:28, July 30, 2021 (EDT)

New File Versions

How can I upload a new version of a preexisting image? I don't see an option for it on the upload page. - User:Yoshi6

Underneath the "File History" section of a preexisting image, there is an option titled "Upload a new version of this file". The image you plan to upload to replace the preexisting image must be the same type though, otherwise it won't work (for example: .png or .jpg). link:User:Sparks Sparks (talk) link:User:Sparks 11:01, April 4, 2024 (EDT)

Thanks for the response, but there's a message saying "You cannot overwrite this file." at the bottom of the page. Here's the image I'm trying to fix: Hen (The resolution 320 × 288, the correct one would be 160 × 144) - User:Yoshi6
