On Images Sizes

{{helpme}}

I'm wondering if I could start uploading some images that are (IMHO) better than the ones currently out here for contacts and enemies. My first wonder would be regarding size. I noticed a post in the forums where TonyV was lamenting the 600 pixel size of file images when he was putting them on at 700. (No biggy to me, I set my default size to 10,000x10,000. ;) Would it be a problem if I started uploading much larger files? Like this one for Veluta Lunata or this plus a little trimming for Arbiter Daos?

And if that's going to fill up too much hard drive space or some such, I can always shrink them down. (Though, in the Arbiter's case, my pic takes up a bit less space than the existing png file!)

My other wonder... if I do make a new image, I'm not so sure I should just flat out upload it in place of an existing image. I'm always going to like mine better than the current version. Is there a way to upload them as a preliminary image then let one of you folks decide if it should be swapped in?

P.S. You might have to click on those ImageShack images to get the full sized image.

Wow. Slow response time on those help questions. Shame on us. Did you ever get an answer to this? I seem to recall some discussion some time ago on the forums or something (probably the same discussion you mentioned in your original question.) I think we were maybe concentrating on the upcoming move at the time, though.
If you still want to explore this, it might be a good idea to post in the forums to open it up to more of a group discussion. --Eabrace 05:30, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
