- Can you please link me to the comic you are working on? I'm a bit busy right now. What is my role in your comic? --
RAP... 20:48, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
You are one of the sysops. the comic is here, you're only introduced in the meeting for now [1] I know you were demoted, but it was a little while ago.Count Bonsula I need blood...20:52, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Account Problems
Okay, I'm actually UhHuhAlrightDaisy, but after forgetting my password and failing to attempt to login too many times, as well as resetting my password and waiting for a few days now, it's still telling me that I need to wait longer before trying to login agian. I'm afraid something is wrong. I need your help. HiImDaisy 23:53, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Image discussion
Great
WOW! You upload images like lightning! You should be repromoted to sysop! 
GalladeBlades
If you didn't actually check more closely, those are just compressed images I process - all part of the image maintenance routine. This was even before I was demoted. I have other stuff to worry about, so I really doubt I'll get repromoted for quite a while. --RAP... 23:31, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
Transparency
I don't think people realize it, but when you have to cut out the white background you're cutting out small fractions of the actual colors that make up the artwork on the outer area of the render. Therefore, it leaves some sharp edges here and there. Do you know what I mean? UhHuhAlrightDaisy 18:12, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Before: 
Transparency: 
You see how before you did the transparency the outline wasn't as cut out and choppy? UhHuhAlrightDaisy 18:15, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Ah, well. That's a bit of a consequence (result of the action) in my part - but considered beneficial. You see, the majority of the artwork PNG images used to be JPG images (nowdays, we can find PNG images in the internet from Nintendo press kits easily - such as File:Yoshi_MSW.png, but not always :p. The image you showed me came from a Mario Mania page, in JPG form), or likely scanned images from other sources. If you can see in the original Lemmy Koopa image, there were defects and noise around the image; the white stuff that makes the image appear less sharp. You can see it closely by the eye, or painting the background black by using MSPaint to see the defects.
Removing the noise is beneficial, but might cause a sharpening effect depending on how much white was removed around the image. My apologizes if I pushed it too much, the editing program I used is GIMP - it's not bad actually. --RAP... 22:42, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- You need to stop adding transparency to images, seriously. And also, adding a reply on your own talk page doesn't let me know you've replied to me. UhHuhAlrightDaisy 09:52, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
- Considering that UhHuhAlrightDaisy is not appreciating the transparency that you're adding to the PNG artworks, maybe you can just stick to image compressing. Speaking of which, I think that I'm feeling guilty for doing something like that to a few artwork images for Mario Super Sluggers.
M&SG (talk) 01:00, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
- The problem with making transparent backgrounds is what UhHuhAlrightDaisy stated above, along with the fact that not all artworks have white backgrounds (such as the Super Mario Galaxy artworks). Also, adding alpha layers actually causes PNG images to use more memory than before; especially when you take into account the number of transparent colors.
Either way, it's not easy to do transparency to artworks when so many of them are always saved as JPEG images (which can't have transparency) on the gaming websites like GameSpot and IGN. M&SG (talk) 15:05, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
Once again, please stop adding transparency to artworks. UhHuhAlrightDaisy 03:56, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
Your Talk Page Format
Oh, also, I made a edit to your talk page and reverted it because I'm not allowed to edit people's comments. So you can revert my latest edit if you want to go back to that revision (but this message that you're reading right now will disappear). That revision allows people to press the "+" button at the top of the page to add a new comment on to Wiki Discussion. The current format doesn't do it properly...anyways, hope you like it!

Mario/Peach Image For "Mario Party Advance"
You saw that as well before Lindsay151 relayed it to these parts? You've gotta tell me where was the main source of that awesome picture! --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! User Page | Talk Page 01:02, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
I don't know where she gets those images - honestly! XD She has the secrets of getting good images just like I do. --RAP... 01:04, 26 August 2010 (UTC) That heart thing - it was a long time ago. It was before the gallery website disappeared out of thin air.
- Hmm...? What "gallery website" was this...? --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! User Page | Talk Page 02:19, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Re: PNG images
Hmm...I'll use that and read the guide. The image's look won't change right? Count Bonsula I need blood...
Read the last question in the guide. That might be it. --RAP... 19:10, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Cool! But the monster is still hungry! I hope he won't eat all my folders! (:Count Bonsula I need blood... Thanks again!
Okey, just to be sure can you check out if this file is alright? Count Bonsula I need blood...
Whoops. Sorry for the delay. You compressed the image completely it seems. Congrats. :p --RAP... 03:32, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
Artwork Requests
I was wondering if you could find Max Res versions of Daisy's artwork for, Mario Hoops and both Strikers games? UhHuhAlrightDaisy 20:15, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
Sorry, school time is claiming my time freebies. I have other stuff to worry besides school. --RAP... 21:24, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
It's cool, and remember to leave replies on my talk page or else I don't know you've replied! xD UhHuhAlrightDaisy 04:59, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Hey
Hi RAP. I wanted to let you know I finally got to work on replacing those SML2 images.

Hey!
Could you upload a picture of Shadow Mario with a brown hat? Vinnie
- That sounds more like an unofficial image to me. I only upload anything official that is deemed necessary for the wiki. --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
Source
Can you tell me where you got this? http://www.mariowiki.com/File:MH3on3_DonkeyKong2.jpg UhHuhAlrightDaisy 21:39, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
- The link to the image is gone. As a result, I don't know if it is a character artwork, or a character icon. Even if I do know what it is, I forgot where it came from long ago. --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)

SM64 to Korea
[1]
The game was never released in Korea, where did you find that logo? SWFlash
- (laughs like Iwata) The game is indeed released in Korea for the region-exclusive iQue Player. I found the logo at the iQue website, but I think it's already changed already. You should try digging around, I think they didn't clear out the old stuff yet...not sure though. Also note that I've just recently uploaded the Korean stuff I just talked to you now. o: --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
NIWA Dicussions
Hi
I (Slipknot Darkrai there) have left you a message on NintendoWiki (NIWA). Can you get to the message plz. Besides what happened on not being on wikia anymore? I love Wikia!!! 
Kaptain K. Rool 
- I forbid anyone from asking for sysop powers; tis suspicion and resentment from regular users. If you're talking about the NintendoWiki itself, the wiki was created as a in-house project, not moved from Wikia, and please read this. --RAP... 12:00, 12 March 2011 (EST)
- Hmm... okay then... you like Lemmy Koopa as your favorite. Besides I am sorry that 2257 was unwise on removing your sysop privileges. I think that just wasn't right. Besides check NintendoWiki and plz delete the pages I tagged for deletion. Is it okay if Tacopill promotes me sometime or whenever because you don't seem to be active there much...

- Indeed my favorite. I don't play much Mario games anymore though, I'm moving on to other Nintendo franchises and revisiting some games, such as Twilight Princess, and Spyro 3. Ah, I see that you spotted that, there's a bit more to it - but in general, I don't feel like talking about it. I'm not very active in NintendoWiki because I'm working on other NIWA wikis, providing some very fresh artwork images there (tis to clear out my folder that have them for more than several months!) I'm also preoccupied with life outside the computer, school and all that. --RAP... 12:31, 12 March 2011 (EST)

- I browse this wiki. That is why. Another question. Why don't you ask for your powers back? I am sure you can probably gain them back by now. Kaptain K. Rool

Message
I sent you a message on Nintendo Wiki. Please respond. 
Supremo
- My apologies dear user - I'm preoccupied with summer school in the recent weeks and I'm resting at home. Right now, my hands are a bit tied up right now. Today is the day I try to upload the rest of the leftover Mario images into MarioWiki, and I intend to clear the damn folder up! XD I will try to make a response around Saturday afternoon. --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
Oh that's fine! I will wait for Saturday. BTW the images you upload are great. Supremo

Block T
Hi! I just wanted to know, "are normal users allowed to put block templates if the person is really blocked or no?"Count Bonsula I need blood...
- On the talk page? Absolutely. Gives a bit of relief from the staff repeatedly placing block templates, and the occasion of forgetting to tag a blocked users' talk page. --RAP... 21:29, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi RAP. The staff has decided to give you Autopatrol rights because we've noticed that you generally make good edits. This doesn't actually carry any extra responsibilities or powers and is mainly intended to make things run more smoothly on our end. Nevertheless, if you have any questions about this, feel free to contact me. Thanks. - 2257(Talk) 22:53, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Response to the deletion of the "New Super Mario Bros. Coin World" article
I suppose I can, but I can't let a conjecturally named two liner be created. You can either make it a sub-page of yours until you get more information or keep the information on Toys#Other Mario-themed games for now. For merchandise, the criteria to having an article is the availability of content. For example, Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World does not have it's own article despite being officially named and being a arcade game.
Anyway, here is the content:
{{Conjecture}} '''''New Super Mario Bros. Coin World''''' is a medal arcade game developed by [[Capcom]]. It was revealed in late December 2010, and is currently in the testing phase.<ref>[http://tinycartridge.com/post/2127640477/the-next-new-super-mario-bros-game-is-coin]; retrieved 1/10/11</ref> <gallery> File:NSMBCoinWorld1.jpg File:NSMBCoinWorld2.jpg File:NSMBCoinWorld3.jpg File:NSMBCoinWorld4.jpg File:NSMBCoinWorld5.jpg </gallery> {{stub}} ==References== <references/> {{Arcade}} [[Category:Japan Only Games]] [[Category:Arcade Games]]

I was blocked?
Okay, I tried to create a signature, and it says that RAP blocked me. I did not do anything wrong (not that I know of), so why am I blocked from creating a signature?
- Who are you dear user? I have no idea what are you talking about (mind me that I haven't been here very much lately). --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
?
alright, Nimcompoop, gimme a GOOD reason why U deleted User:Fg.
Gumball of the Stars (talk)
- Do you mean the user, or the userpage itself? Users can't be deleted under any normal means. Fg's userpage was erased because for cleanup reasons - if the user doesn't have anything good to say in the userpage and instead simply posts spam, or unnecessary content - it will be deleted. Checking that the user you are talking about isn't banned infinitely - why would you want to see his userpage? He hasn't been around since 2009 as far as the data recalls. --RAP... 14:25, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
RE:<gallery> tags
If you're asking how to make 5 images per row the default rather than something that has to be added to each gallery manually, adding $wgGalleryOptions['imagesPerRow'] = 5; to localsettings.php should do that. Of course, only Steve can edit localsettings.php, so you'll have to talk to him about it. - 2257(Talk) 16:49, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
- That would be it, thanks! And I'll definitely tell ol'Porple about it...as soon as I'm done dumping the leftover images into MarioWiki territory. --RAP... 16:57, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
RE: MSS cards
It looks fine; I actually have the back images too, but since this is a bit of a tiring project, I'd appreciate it if you could work on uploading some of them. - Turboo 18:10, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
- Alrighty then. :) Which set of images you're going to tackle? Depending on the time that is. I need to know so I can plan accordingly, and upload other images that are not related to MSS cards. I'm currently tackling for the back images for Level 1 (another 41 images) - maybe you can tackle the Front and back portion of Level 2 (48 images combined); and then if we're both done - I'll take on Level 3 back cards (12 images), and you'll take on the Level 4 back cards (5 images). Is that a deal? With both of us working together, we'll finish it faster! :P --RAP... 18:20, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
- I'll try to get all of the level 2 images later on tonight. - Turboo 22:48, 22 July 2011 (EDT)
One More Delay...
Hey RAP, due to several things popping up at once (reports and work that are due at the beginning of the school year and the fact that I need to be away from the computer at about 6 PM your time), I'll have to postpone our interview for one (final) time: tomorrow at whichever time works for you. Things just aren't looking very good for me being able to do this tonight for the proper amount of time it should run, and if you can let me know what time you will be on tomorrow, that will be great (the interview will probably run anywhere from one to two hours, so you should be sure that you will have this time to spare— I'm 100% certain I will have that time to spare tomorrow). I'm prepared for what will go down and have a general list of questions as well, so just say the word and tomorrow our plans shall commence. Thank you for putting up for the constant rescheduling on my part. · SMB (Talk) · 19:46, 25 July 2011 (EDT)
- On another note, I passed on the message you told me to bring up to the staff members about the NIWA Skype Discussion. Just thought I should tell you so you know. · SMB (Talk) · 19:54, 25 July 2011 (EDT)
Question
How do you find/make images like this in high quality? Super Waluigi 18:00, 5 November 2011 (EDT)
- Those images came from the Donkey Kong Country manuals/strategy guides that can be found online. Unfortunately I'm not sure if it is there or not, it's been a while since I uploaded those images. Google it I suppose. :p If you're curious of why I'm in the wiki, my presence for today is to change the licenses due to the Template:Game-sprite license. Not every image has been checked, and no one seems to be tackling it so I'm doing it right now. --RAP... 18:04, 5 November 2011 (EDT)
- Remember the link for the online strategy guides? Super Waluigi 18:06, 5 November 2011 (EDT)
