Welcome to Bulbapedia, Airbeats!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

  • Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
  • Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
  • Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
  • Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
  • You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
  • Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
  • If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
  • Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
  • For more handy links, see the welcome portal.
Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Changes button... Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Thanks! --ht14 21:25, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Regarding images

Here in Bulbapedia we prefer pngs over jpgs for most images. Please refrain from changing them back to jpgs or jpegs. Thank you. ht14 21:34, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

I don't understand why it keeps getting reverted the Pictures I put are a little better than the previous ones. - unsigned comment from Airbeats (talkcontribs)

One, use four tildes (~) after you comment. Second, as said previously, png images are preferred over jpg or jpeg images. If you feel your image is of better quality, do so by uploading over the png image. However, in regards to your young Misty picture, it was the same exact image, albeit smaller quality. ht14 21:38, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Airbeats (talk) 21:47, 1 August 2012 (UTC) how can my pictures be by png? In regards to the young misty picture, it was the exact same one yes, but with better quality regardless if it was smaller, while the bigger one made it look blurry.

The tildes is at the end of the comment. As for png, I'm not too sure but I believe there is a jpg to png converter. As to the young Misty image, wouldn't it have been better to change the px amount? ht14 21:53, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
The easiest way to change an image from jpg to png is to just simply open it in Paint or any other image editing software and then resave it as a png or any other format you want. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 22:02, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
