MarioWiki talk:Personal images

20 px is way to small! Max2 you can't see the images!
 * That's the point. If the image is unrecognizable at 20px, the image was too big right from the get go. Remember, this is speaking of sig images, which must fit in a small space and not stretch the screen. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]]Chris[[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 22:36, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
 * On that point, there is some leeway. Take the spooks in my sig. They are bigger than 20px (which would look like this:[[Image:Shyghost.PNG|20 px]]). It's just a guide line. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]]Chris[[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 22:38, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
 * If it looks better at 30px, you can scale it to there. 22:52, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
 * C'mon, can't it be 50px?
 * I for one do not understand why we keep limits on size. Some users have large text in their sigs which is pretty much the same as an image. If anything, users should shrink the text in their sigs as well if this rule is to be enforced. 23:09, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
 * Actually, I agree with Knife. We should have a set size standard for sigs. -- [[Image:Shyghost.PNG]]Chris[[Image:Shyghost.PNG]] 00:26, 20 March 2007 (EDT)
 * I think sig text should stay the same size because sigs can tell people what the user's personality is like. If the person's personality is reflected in their big lettering or big images, then that tells other users who that user is and what they may be like.

I agree that the writing size shouldn't be too large, and the pixs should be a little bigger.----

Linking to personal images externally?
On my Wiki, we have a policy that allows one personal image and then using offsite images for the rest. Are we allowed to link to offsite images for our use here? --Crazyswordsman 13:24, 2 May 2007 (EDT)
 * Yes, you are suggested to to still be in the on-wiki limit. 15:57, 2 May 2007 (EDT)

I was wondering, can you have a personal image that you use in your signature and on your userpage? 13:12, 12 October 2008 (EDT)
 * Yes. It still only counts as one image. 13:36, 12 October 2008 (EDT)

List of Personal Images
Before I left for six months, I vaguely remember there was a page that showed a list of all the personal images. I'm not talking about the category for the personal images, I mean a page that not only showed the image, but who it belongs to as well. I've tried looking for it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Was it deleted, or do I have bad memory? GreenDisaster 14:48, 30 March 2012 (EDT)


 * I believe you're referring to this? Which, iirc, no longer works now that the DPL extension has been removed from the wiki.

 * Yeah, that's it. Thanks. GreenDisaster 19:32, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

Images in Drafts
I have a Drafts user subpage that I keep article drafts in. If I upload images for my drafts, do they count as personal images? Thanks! - 21:16, 11 June 2017 (EDT)
 * If you intend on putting the images into the full finished article, then no (try to use them, though, otherwise, they're going to go unused and have to be deleted). Alternatively, you can wait until the article is completed and posted before you upload the images. 21:25, 11 June 2017 (EDT)

Change to Personal File?
From what I've seen, it looks like I can upload personal music and videos. However, we still tag it with. Should we move the file and this policy page to make that more clear? Thanks! - 20:13, 14 January 2018 (EST)
