Userpedia Comic
Is it okay if I include you in my comic? as a minotr character?16:22, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
 * 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? -- 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 I know you were demoted, but it was a little while ago.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)

Great
WOW! You upload images like lightning! You should be repromoted to sysop!

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. -- 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: http://www.mariowiki.com/images/archive/8/86/20100803021909!LemmyKoopa2_SMB3.png Transparency: http://www.mariowiki.com/images/8/86/LemmyKoopa2_SMB3.png

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. -- 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.  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.  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. -- 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?

Read the last question in the guide. That might be it. -- 19:10, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

Cool! But the monster is still hungry! I hope he won't eat all my folders! (: Thanks again!

Okey, just to be sure can you check out if this file is alright?

Whoops. Sorry for the delay. You compressed the image completely it seems. Congrats. :p -- 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. -- 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. 14:25, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Block T
Hi! I just wanted to know, "are normal users allowed to put block templates if the person is really blocked or no?"
 * 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. -- 21:29, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!

Image Deletion
Can You delete this image? I no longer need it now that I retired from The Shroom.

TravixMan

News!
Ohai RAP! I got the info from here :) -- 01:05, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Autopatrol
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. 22:53, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations keep up the good work!

Hmm...This is new. Congratulations!22:58, 27 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Mario from Mario Kart 64: CONGRATULATIONS!

The (late) PipeWarning!

 * Srry, this was a bit late this month X_X

Give thanks for PipeWarnings

 * You know, I'm starting to see these messages pile up...

Friend Request
Hey RAP,wanna be my friend?Btw you upload the best images the wiki has to offer.--User:UltraMario3000

Hey!
Could you upload a picture of Shadow Mario with a brown hat?

Can you tell me where you got this? http://www.mariowiki.com/File:MH3on3_DonkeyKong2.jpg UhHuhAlrightDaisy 21:39, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

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 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:

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.

You'll never guess who this is...

 * Send me your NIWA News section. 08:10, 5 January 2011 (EST)

RareWiki
Want to join RareWiki which is a failed spinoff of MarioWiki (this wiki) and was created by Wayoshi, a MarioWiki member. Do you mnd contributing there? Also I own that wiki.

Sorry, I have no interest on joining RareWiki anytime soon. My main priorities are NintendoWiki, NIWA and its' respective wikis, and my life outside the computer. Thank you for your message though. -- 22:56, 24 January 2011 (EST)

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!!!
 * 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. -- 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. -- 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.


 * Nah, if I have to get them, I have to work even harder in this wiki in order to do gain them. But even so, my time here has passed, as my primary focus is Nintendo Wiki, and NIWA. -- 12:31, 12 March 2011 (EST)

Compressing
Did you know that OptiPNG is better than PNGCrush? You mad?
 * And PNGOUT is better than PNG Monster (even though PNG Monster USES it, the file's still bigger! No prooflink, sorry.)
