Welcome to StrategyWiki![edit]

Hello Game Player500! Welcome to StrategyWiki. Thank you for your contributions. If you have any questions, just contact a sysop through their talk page or post on the staff lounge, and they'd be happy to help. If you need help editing, check the StrategyWiki Guide or visit the Discord server to chat. On the other hand, if you have ideas for StrategyWiki, bring them up on the staff lounge as well. To keep up-to-date with the goings on of the wiki, consider adding the noticeboard to your watchlist.

Please remember to sign your name when leaving comments on talk pages by clicking   or using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to delete this message from your talk page if you like, or keep it for reference. Happy editing! — Prod (talk) 19:17, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Image uploads[edit]

Please see our policy on image naming and categorization. For consistency and ease of use throughout the wiki, image names should contain the name of the game or its abbreviation and a one or two word description. All images also need the appropriate categories added, as well as the guide-specific image category (e.g. [[Category:Game Name images]]). Thanks for helping to keep our images neat! — Procyon 19:45, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Please rename all of the pixel-frame images that you uploaded to the game to something that starts with Rootin-Tootin so that it's clear what game those images belong to. Procyon 19:47, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Please put the name of the game at the beginning of your images. Pixil isn't a helpful image name. -- Prod (talk) 18:55, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

Pre-load buttons[edit]

 
The pre-load buttons.

In order to keep pages on the wiki neat and uniform, we employ certain formatting and templates to help us accomplish this. When creating a new page, please use one of the pre-load buttons located above the edit text box (e.g. click on "Guide page" to add {{Header Nav}} to the top and {{Footer Nav}} to the bottom), which will insert the needed templates and formatting for you. These templates are very handy because they include the templates that are required for each page type. If you are unsure about how to use them, or what pages to use them on, please let me know. Thanks for keeping the wiki organized! — Procyon 01:45, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

Image Uploads 2[edit]

Once again, please read the policy on naming images and change the names when you upload. Your current names of "Pixil-frame-0 (31)" are extremely unhelpful. As with all other related file names, name it something like "Ponpoko (Thing in image) Sprite" or something similar. You can change the names of files on the Upload file page, once your file to upload has been selected. Furthermore, please use the Template:File template when uploading, which helps to keep all files organized. If you need help using this, I have a guide on how to do so on my userpage. Thank you!

New Zealand Story[edit]

Hello, I saw your message. I'm not going to do the work for you, I have far too much to do in real life. But I can offer advice to get your going on your own. You need to start learning how to use GIMP. GIMP is a free art program that a lot of people use. It's incredibly powerful and has a lot of tools and options. It's the program I use to create those enhanced sprites. Start downloading GIMP and get familiar with how to use it, and you'll be able to get a lot more creative with the sprites than you are today. Procyon 00:32, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

Alternatively, I have had success with Pixlr, a free online website variant that operates similarly to GIMP. I would suggest trying GIMP first, but if you are unable to use it (chromebook/unable to download etc) I would try this instead. Trig - 01:18, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
