:::::Wario, thanks for the help.  Sorry it's taken me awhile to get back with you; I think I've gotten this thing figured out.  Is there a way to delete existing files so I don't end up spamming the site with repeats?  I want to enlarge some of my photos ('frame' instead of 'thumb') but for most, I would need to resize them and I don't want a bunch of copies of the same basic image.  Thanks!  [[User:Cornwallismorgan87|Cornwallismorgan87]] ([[User talk:Cornwallismorgan87|talk]]) 23:52, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

::::There's no need to worry about deleting the files; Wario moved them to a new filename which effectively renames them, so the old file name is erased.  However, should you ever want to instruct an admin to delete a file, please edit the file description and add '''<nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki>'''.  If you need variable sizes for your images, you can add a size parameter when you use "frame", e.g. '''<nowiki>[[File:SW_Namco_menu.png|frame|180px]]</nowiki>''' where 180 pixel is the maximum width you want the image to appear.  You can also specify "180x180px" where 180 pixels is the maximum size you want in either dimension, as an example.  Additionally, please don't use HTML for headers, use the correct number of equal signs.  For example: '''<nowiki>===Level 3 Header===</nowiki>'''.  Although wikis are compatible with HTML, they have their own markup language which is preferable so that all editors use a common system.  This stuff is all covered in the [[StrategyWiki:Guide|guide]]... just saying...  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 01:23, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
