High Quality Uploads
Hey, great uploads! I'm loving the screenshots you're adding to this wiki. Please do more. :D 23:20, 19 November 2015 (EST)
 * To be honest, I wasn't sure if my uploads were approvable because of the drastic increase in file size. I'm glad someone sees my high quality uploads as something good. I could go even higher but my computer is crap and I don't have anything beyond a 1600x900 monitor. The resolution of the captures are really causing Dolphin Emulator to run slow for me (2.5x Native). Even 1x Native can get sluggish at times. If I had more powerful hardware, it wouldn't be such a problem. Oh well. I am at least providing some much needed quality images this Wiki needs for Super Mario Galaxy (and Super Mario Galaxy 2 too when I get around to playing that through Dolphin :P). :D --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 23:43, 19 November 2015 (EST)
 * The more increase in file-size means better quality the better for the wiki, I say. Well I'm glad someone's going through the trouble of playing a platformer especially on a slower computer to upload high quality screenshots. The games can run frustratingly slow so I understand where you're coming from. Keep up the good work! 00:47, 20 November 2015 (EST)
 * Slower frame rates do help getting more precise screenshots though. :P Anyways, it's nice to see my work is going appreciated. It's a nice change of pace hearing positive remarks improving a Wiki. :D The last Wiki I tried to improve just had me being chewed out by moderators. The Wiki's organization and maintenance handling was a mess five years in the making. Tried to propose systems to help it out some to get it back on-track. Lukewarm response. :( This Wiki and Bulbapedia handle better. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 04:42, 20 November 2015 (EST)
 * Yeah about that slow emulation speed lol, we've worked with slower frame rates before; we had to work with 1-3 FPS sometimes! The payoff is that the results in button-mashing and reaction minigames in Mario Party are profound, and it one time lead us to discovering an easter egg. Anyway, despite what Baby Luigi (my identical twin sister) said, it might actually be ideal if you stick to native resolution, but there's no point going back and changing the resolution of the images. Don't let that discourage you, though, and you can continue your work as usual. 15:23, 20 November 2015 (EST)
 * The way Dolphin handles screenshots, it's a pain to take things in 640x480 or 853x480 or whatever. The picture ends up being stretched and scaled to whatever size the window is to fit the frame. I have brought this up on the Dolphin bug tracker. The developers say the current screenshot code is a mess and they haven't gotten around to cleaning it up because of the fact. Also if I were to take their suggestion to get around the issue, the program crashes and restarts my display driver, for me at least. Long story short, it's a pain to take screenshots at the 1x native resolution and have the output screenshot be 640x480 or 853x480. It's better for me to do 2.5x native (1600x900). --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 16:58, 20 November 2015 (EST)

NICE!! A fellow uploader! Such work is always appreciated. If uploading images is your main interest. I can link you to a page with countless amount of low quality images. Not necessarily Wii games but all existing Mario games!-- 06:48, 20 November 2015 (EST)
