User talk:Zootalo: Difference between revisions

Are you referring to the images on [[List of Star Pieces in Paper Mario]]? I replaced a few of those already but the replacements project is incomplete. The issue I am having with those images are emulator glitches (very minor and many emulators struggle to emulate ''[[Paper Mario]]'' correctly) and JPEGs converted to PNG. Retaking them yourself would be a good idea with either angrylion graphics (preferred) or Glide64 (tolerable). The most you are doing is lowering bandwidth requirements to transmit the images to other users more so than increasing quality. Generally, I think N64 emulation has spread a lot of misinformation over the years (I suspect Project64 as it is the most popular). The border is what real hardware produces. I checked. When the ''take screenshot'' option is executed in an emulator, some games generate a border, which is not an emulator glitch but rather correct N64 gamepak execution. By [[MarioWiki:Image use policy]], you should mention a crop to the black-bordered image. That rule was a compromise between my desire to see screenshots unaltered if a border is present and {{user|Porplemontage}}'s desire to make pages look better. There are many images on MarioWiki that are lacking mentioning a crop because the policy change was made after it was made a requirement. Those affected files do need updating with their {{tem|aboutfile}}. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 18:48, 15 September 2016 (EDT)
