Zelda Wiki talk:Image Requests

New Policy
I am just informing everyone that the policy has changed and we've decided to allow everyone to edit images, seeing as there aren't too many applications posted, and that all those who did have good potential. We have alot of images to go through, and these applications will only make the process more difficult than it needs to be, so we want to thank all of you for being patient. 20:16, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Need Help
I think I can give a hand with this. So far I have worked with Tetra. There are so many other things that I don't know how to edit properly on the wiki, like deleting the old images. Tip for anybody who wants to start helping, save on PNG instead of gif for transparency. The edges are much sharper, and so it's original quality is kept better. If you have a request, please let me know.Eximius 11:03, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

So yea, it gives me error each time I try to replace with PNG. So I'll need help on deleting images. Thanks.Eximius 11:11, 19 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi Eximus. Firstly, deleting old images is something that only administrators can do. If there is an image you believe should be deleted you need to place the template on the page, and it will be appropriately dealt with. It is already a wiki quality standard for transparent files to be in .png format, over .gif. I get the feeling you need to have a read of the details at the top of the Image Requests Page so you understand exactly what you can and can't do with image requests.


 * With your last line, you cannot replace a file with a new version that is of a different file extension. You must upload it as a new file, redirect all of the pages from the old image to the new image, and then request the old file to be deleted. Again, you need to have a read of the information on the image requests page to see how exactly Image Requests work at Zelda Wiki.org. You will need to apply (See above) if you wish to do any image editing other than screenshot cropping.


 * Having a look at that Tetra image that you worked on. It is of great quality, however you are not an approved image editor, so you shouldn't be doing transparencies. Your skills appear to be good, so if you wish, please apply to become an image editor above. Thanks. 23:26, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
