Personal images

There is a great deal of images you have uploaded just for your userpage. I need to let you know that you can't upload an infinite amount of these images, and the limit is four. Please keep this in mind while you are uploading more images because some can and will get deleted. Thanks and keep contributing.

Unfortunately, neither I or you can delete personal images as it is administrator powers. However, you can add this template: {{personal-image-abandoned|MarioKartDoubleDash}} to each image file you want removed to mark them for deletion. Just go on the image page, click on the edit button, and add this somewhere.
Before you mark these images, however, it may help to upload at an external image uploader, such as imgur or photbucket if you want to keep these images. Thanks for reading, and I hope this advice helps.

Mario Kart Wii Hack

Are you familiar with .szs files? You need an SZS modifier and the appropriate files. You need to change your Wii's system language to another language, such as French or Spanish so you can modify the names. Your nicknames' character count should be equal or shorter than the name provided. So, some names have to be modified. I tried naming Luigi, Gay Guy, for instance, but I stuck with Gay™. I do like your names, however, such as calling "Mario" "Maria" (I call him "Fatso"), and I especially like "Monkey Boy".

P.S. I also like your Gmod pictures. You don't know how I feel to ask you to mark them for deletion. :( Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 21:48, 30 December 2013 (EST)

File uploads

As per this file names with nicknames are not allowed. File names should be descriptive so please upload them with more accurate names. The ones you have uploaded have already, or will be moved to more suitable names. Yoshi876 (talk)

File summaries

Please don't write humorous file summaries like Template:Plainlink as they need to accurately describe the image, thanks. --driftmaster130 (TalkEdits) 20:51, 11 January 2014 (EST)

Smash Bros. models

Your Smash Bros. models and other n64 models aren't valid because they're hacks from Brawl Vault, cropped from their preview screenshots. BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C) 13:38, 14 June 2014 (EDT)

Thomas Spindler image

Have you verified that he is 'that' Thomas Spindler (and by verified I mean contacted him and confirmed his identity), or did you just take the first image you could find? We don't need another Leslie Swan fiasco. 68.198.70.54 21:54, 28 June 2014 (EDT)

Mirror Mode

It's usually not worth it to upload simply mirrored sprites (you can do the same thing in photo editing programs such as GIMP). If the game provides mirrored sprites, however, you can upload it, especially if the character is asymmetrical. See Gallery:Mario Super Sluggers and Gallery:Super Mario Strikers to check if this is what you'd like to do. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario!

Template:Personal-image-warning I see you have too many personal images. You have 6' and the max is 4. Please delete 2 of them. Joseph (talk) (contribs) Joseph's mii.jpg

You have 4 more days to put a delete template/abandon personal image template' or they will randomly be chosen to delete. Please save your favorites' and sacrifice others. Thank you' have a nice day. Joseph (talk) (contribs) Joseph's mii.jpg

You didn't have to do it to all of them' only 2 of them. Joseph (talk) (contribs) Joseph's mii.jpg

I've already done two of them. --MarioKartDoubleDash (talk) 09:18, 11 August 2014 (EDT)

Nabbit and stuff

Sorry for the tad late reply, I'm not terribly active around here. Anyway, maybe upload your image to imgur because I have no clue what the image is going to be like (I haven't played New Super Luigi U). Or, you can point out Nabbit in the image description.

Re:Ripping

I can't think of a way to rip at-least-decent quality of voices from those games, but if I ever find a way, I'll tell you. Sorry! Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:09, 30 June 2015 (EDT)

The file was deleted because it was a duplicate to the original file (which has higher resolution). If you want to find high resolution artworks, you should visit PidgiWiki.

Re:Koopa

They just sound computer generated rather than people making it for them. Frank Welkher doesnt' voice all sound effects. BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C) 01:22, 26 February 2016 (EST)

Re: Least favorite characters

I just heavily dislike them for their annoying voices and that I often have to go on the defensive because some irritating people seem to get really hostile when I express my dislike for Yoshi and others, which has probably exemplified my dislike for Yoshi as irrational as that is.

Low Quality Mario Golf 64 Images

Three things for your your recent uploads for Mario Golf (Nintendo 64):

  • Try to make the uploads first before editing pages, such as your edits to Bogey. Don't worry, uploads are logged if you lose track of yours.
  • The uploads should have [[Category:Mario Golf 64 Images]] inserted for easier maintenance.
  • You should try emulation. See my WIP, specifically the sections about N64 emulation and where to get save files.

Hope this helps. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 14:54, 18 July 2016 (EDT)

What a bummer! I guess that leaves three options:
  • Tag your images with {{image-quality}}
  • I can replace them (I can do 14/18 characters through cheating them out)
  • I can get others to replace them (the remaining 4 characters)
--Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 22:43, 18 July 2016 (EDT)
This doesn't apply anymore! I figured out how to get the remaining four characters through emulation. It was all Transfer Pak related. I am absolutely new to Mario Golf and Mario Tennis for GBC and N64. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 20:14, 20 July 2016 (EDT)

RE: HD Pictures Request

Sorry, I don't have those games. :( I think either Bazooka Mario (talk) or Baby Luigi (talk) have them though. If not, tag those images with {{image-quality}} at the very least. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 14:58, 27 July 2016 (EDT)

I know. There's a few complications with that:
  1. Don't have the game. Never played it. Therefore, I have no idea how to trigger that cutscene in the screenshot. I was able to replace your Mario Golf screenshots because it wasn't too hard to figure out how to trigger the condition.
  2. Getting a disc image of the game. There exists legal hurdles obtaining game data. The only legal way you can obtain disc images of the game is the use of CleanRip. This tool provides good dumps of disc images, but it requires you own a copy of the game. I use Redump to verify I have a good dump.
  3. Talking about getting games for emulation is a controversial topic. I'd rather not talk about it. The only exception is #2 because that is legal on the grounds that at least US copyright law permits the practice of creating back-ups of your media (not limited to GCN/Wii games), even though Nintendo doesn't like it. Just don't distribute those backups. Then you are committing copyright infringement if you do.

Image Category Reminder

Hello, MarioKartDoubleDash. 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, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[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.

Your recent uploads for Mario Kart 8 and Mario Party 10 were missing categories that were added for you. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 00:07, 1 October 2016 (EDT)

Forum account at the Super Mario Boards...?

Hey, I was just rechecking to see if you have a forum account at the Super Mario Boards; there's something that I would like to ask you regarding the images you added to this wiki related to the Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour installment (via PM because it's a question I can't post here on your talk page). Let me know soon; thanks in advance. --M. C. - Profile | Talk Page 05:11, 9 January 2017 (EST)

PNG Replacements of Art

No need to keep both the JPEG and PNG of images. Just tag the JPEG for deletion. Also some of those replacements were PNG to start. Just upload a new version of that file instead of creating a new file page. Makes everything easier. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 00:40, 22 January 2017 (EST)

Waluigi Brawl Art

The artwork you uploaded of Waluigi from Super Smash Bros. Brawl is missing his tennis racket, unlike the JPG artwork we already have of him. You mind uploading a new version of the image with the tennis racket in his hand? Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 13:18, 5 February 2017 (EST)

Actually, policy banned JPEG to PNG conversion. That recently passed. Just be sure to read the details and comments. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 15:29, 5 February 2017 (EST)
